Convicted felon Trump could be banned from nearly 40 countries: report

Raw Story  

As a convicted felon, Donald Trump's travel options have whittled down substantially. While he prepares to appeal and awaits his sentencing on July 11 — Trump could be banned from entering 37 countries including Canada and the U.K. The potential ban on Trump could be especially sour since as president, he imposed a sweeping ban of certain African and Middle East countries. When he came into power in 2017, Trump signed a 90-day executive order blocking any refugees and travelers from seven Muslim-majority countries including Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen from entering the U.S. Some of the countries Trump may also be blackballed from traveling to include close American allies such as Israel, Canada, the U.K., Ireland, and Australia among many others.
