After the Iran hostage crisis, President Carter froze Muslim immigration and ordered all Muslim students to report to immigration. 15,000 were ejected from the U.S. The courts upheld this decision and stated that the president had the authority handle the situation in this manner.
If Trump is considered "hateful" by suggesting the same thing, then Carter was a "hateful" person also. Too bad Bush didn't do this after 9/11. Maybe we wouldn't be having this conversation now.
