If you are referring to Comiccon ... if the process (and restrictions) are followed, application filled in properly, interview conducted etc. I don't see why it won't be honored?

If you are referring to the bigger picture of all legal travel into the US, I don't have the stats, but going to use the 80-20 rule (feel free to propose differently). The 80% of travelers into the US won't be questioned and will sail through.

The 20%, that have questionable situations, I agree should not travel into the US at this time. Off the top of my head, these include foreigners ...
  • Here to work but don't have the proper visa
  • From the list of 41 countries that may be banned or restricted
  • Have questionable criminal histories
  • Did not answer their application forms honestly
  • Have attended the funeral of Nasrallah, lead protests, and similar type situations
