The President has the constitutional power to ban Muslims from coming to the US

Ummmm... this doesn't give the President the authority to create a blank ban on Muslims entering the US.

I know, right. It literally says that can't happen.

Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by president. Whenever the president finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, the president may, by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.

Here is number 8 US Code 1182, inadmissible aliens. This law was written in 1952. It was passed by a Democrat-controlled Congress, House and Senate, and signed by a Democrat president.

The use of that power to ban aliens by reference to their religion would almost certainly infringe the free exercise clause of the 1st Amendment.

foreign nationals don't enjoy the protection of our constitution

They want Muslim immigration because more terrorist attacks will allow this war on terror to be justified

People who were once moderates will turn after so many terrorist attacks..

This is why you get people like Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam defend this plan because he is smart enough to know there are people pushing Muslim immigration in America who are not nice people but have sinister motives.

Rubbish

and goodness knows how many cases following this.

Basically where the Constitution says "persons" then aliens are included. Where is says "citizens" they are not.

This all derives from the common law idea that an alien owes local allegiance to the sovereign where he is resident. The Frenchman in England may commit treason against the King of England by doing an act prejudicial to England even if at the bidding of the King of France. Where the duty of allegiance owed, then the sovereign owes protection to those who owe allegiance.

Of course, in the United States "We the People" are sovereign.
hat you said is totally correct
That answers the point you have made, which is nonsense but it doesn't of itself justify my earlier point.

To have any rights under the first amendment the alien probably has to have a pre-existing connection to the United States (although some of the recent caselaw following 9/11 suggests not).

lmao, he will never ban muslims from entering the US.

1) Republicans in senate and congress would never vote for it
2) If he uses constitutional powers such as executive order or the one stated above, Paul Ryan, leader of the house, said he would sue him for abuse of powers, this was one or two days ago
3) The supreme court will declare it unconstitutional so it could never get put into action - very much like all Trump's other ridiculous ideas.
4) Trump doesn't believe in banning muslims from the US anyway, he's saying it to get voters

Some form of head or body covering for women

... okay I give up - Trump's a r*tard and the only way this could be enforced is by forcing people to turn over documents where they mention their religious affiliation. Even then, it's piss easy for all the other Muslims to change their faith status to 'Atheist' or DK/DC.

How does one identify a Muslim?

Show a cartoon of prophet Mohammed and wait reaction.

I'm not sure what merely being a Muslim means you'v committed serious human rights and humanitarian law violations.

Also, we need to keep this in perspective. While of course Muslims represent a real threat to Americans, it is nothing compare to the threat posed toddlers. Muslim terrorists have shot zero Americans in 2016. In the sam time period, 23 Americans have been shot by toddlers including 7 fatally. Don't let the mainstream media blind you to the real threat.
