President Trump's top aide, Kellyanne Conway, on Sunday disputed the notion that the president's sweeping executive order barring refugees and people from seven majority-Muslim nations amounts to a ban on Muslims.

"These seven countries, what about the 46 majority Muslim countries that are not included. Right there, it totally undercuts this nonsense that this is a Muslim ban," Conway said on "Fox News Sunday."

"This is a ban on prospective travel from countries, trying to prevent terrorists in this country, from countries that have a recent history of training and exporting and harboring terrorists."
