Muslims should not be able to enter the United States

The Declaration of Independence doesn't specify any rights that necessarily imply a right to free and unrestricted ingress for foreign citizens. "Pursuit of Happiness" could but doesn't necessarily imply such a right.

Muslims should not be able to enter the United States

Society could agree upon any particular document to define foundations for its political, philosophical, and legal framework. In the case of the US, the Constitution is agree to be that document, not the DoI. Further, the DoI lacks sufficient detail to serve as such.

Muslims should not be able to enter the United States

Leaving open the possibility that there are other unnamed rights does not logically imply the particular right you've assumed. E.g., To say "The Earth is among the set of planets with life" doesn't logically imply any other particular planet has life. It only leaves the possibility.

Muslims should not be able to enter the United States

This objection is one of semantics, and it fails to reject the point made. Additionally, impractical does not mean impossible, but it usually does imply difficult challenges. Also, many likely believed any given war to be impractical -- likely why the US entered that war so reluctantly.

Donald Trump is a racist

The point above is that we can't assume that his views of mexican immigrants are representative of his views of all racial mexicans. Yes, his comments on immigrants are bigoted, but we can't assume they're motivated by race or that they reflect his views of all mexicans or only immigrants.
