I thought it had been stated that “none” of them would get in, and that they must apply for asylum at a US embassy in their own country.
Seems Lucy has moved the football again.
I said this would happen. Thanks Donald Trump.
Trump did not say that. Asylum must be requested at a port of entry. Other types of requests for admission must happen at a consulate in your own country. Before Trump issued an executive order last week, people sneaking into the USA anywhere had up to a year to request asylum. Its probably being challenged in a court though it makes sense to me.
