CNN political commentator Jeffrey Lord weighed in Saturday on CNN on the temporary immigration halt executive order, saying President Donald Trump “is a profile in courage” for signing the order.

“I just want to say President Trump is a profile in courage on this,” Lord said before being interrupted. “If George W. Bush had instituted the measures that Donald Trump is instituting now, 9/11 … would never have happened.”
