This is implying that all Islamists (people who practice Islam) are the violent, barbaric terrorists which we need to prevent from entering US politics etc...

The definition of Islamist is not Muslim, Islamism is a term used to describe a generally anti-Western political ideology that holds that Islam should be the basis of government, which advocates sharia law and pan-Islamic political unity. More generally, the term is used to refer to the more extreme among these.
