Thursday on the News Hour, President Trump restricts travel from 19 countries, reviving a policy from his first term that will again leave thousands in limbo. Germany's chancellor visits the White House at a time when Europe's alliance with the U.S. is fracturing. Plus, the Republican tax cut and spending bill could add trillions to the already massive national debt.
