Okay, now we are getting somewhere. It is President Trump personally who would deny the visa? Although, historically emigration and visa limits go back to the establishment of our Nation. If you recall, 1932 President Hoover and the State Department essentially shut down immigration during the Great Depression as immigration went from 236,000 in 1929 to 23,000 in 1933. Perhaps you are ignoring that he coerced repatriation and deported of between 500,000 and 2 million Mexican Americans, mostly citizens, in the Mexican Repatriation.
You may also be forgetting that Obama placed a ban in 2011 and then muddied the water with his “Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act” in 2015. So, a temporary ban on countries who breed and train terrorist is the reason your savior would not be able to enter the US?
Each nation has not only the right but the responsibility to not only limit visas but to restrict emigration depending on the needs of its citizens. We do not hear about it much, but you should look up the laws in Austria. People who plan to stay longer than 24 months must sign an Integration Agreement, a process designed to enhance their German-language skills and ability "to participate in the social, economic and cultural life in Austria." And then there is Germany, Japan, and Switzerland. All REQUIRE that the individual speak the language, pass a competency test, and sign an agreement of assimilation besides having personal finance at their immediate disposal to carry them through the first 2 years while waiting to have their case reviewed. Imagine how irate you would be if we decided, as a nation, to require all applicants to provide such credentials and prof of specie? Instead, our President looks to only keep out those who are criminals or want to commit acts of terrorism.
If Jesus were to ask for a visa, then he would not be the one you await. This gets into scripture and I am sure that is not the direction you wanted this thread to go.

Where to start with the absurdities of your post? Oh, here it is: "Our President looks to only keep out those who are criminals or want to commit acts of terrorism." Have you no comprehension of how stupid is that statement? How does he determine those things? All Mexicans, in his eyes, "are rapist and criminals.' (6-16-2016) His supposed ban on Muslim countries: Saudi Arabia is not banned and the 9/11 attackers were from there. How do you know anyone stateside or foreign wants "to commit acts of terrorism"?
