I would define a debt collector as someone who collects a debt, so anyone. The law in question talked about third party debt collectors. That's a horse of a different color. Regardless of what I want/believe/feel/etc the definition to be, the law in question does define it, so that's what we go with.

As for Trump's immigration order, that falls under 8 U.S.C. §1182(f):

(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.

Not much there needing to be defined and it does seem rather clear what authority he has.
