Trump drops out of Heritage event after birther backlash
MSN News ^ | September 18, 2015 | Mark Hensch

Donald Trump canceled his appearance Friday evening at a major campaign stop for the GOP presidential field in South Carolina as he faces criticism from both Republican and Democratic candidates over his failure to address claims that President Obama is a Muslim and "not even an American."

Trump’s campaign announced in a statement Friday he no longer plans to speak at the Heritage Action Presidential Forum at the Bon Secours Arena in Greenville.

I would say:

Obama said: “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor”. Obama also said “If you like your health plan, you can keep your health plan.”. Finally, Obama said “I am a Christian”. I guess we should believe Obama.

They want Trump to behave more like John McCain

Of course they do, because he lost.

FNC’s “The Five” led off with “Trump cancels SC event amid...blah...blah....blah.

I’m trying to decide who I despise the most: Barack Obama, the GOPe, or the Media. I hate all three equally but perhaps the Media, including Fox News, is pulling ahead of the other two.

Look at his words and his actions regarding Christianity. he’s not a Christian. In all likelihood, he’s an atheist.

I’m done with the five. I just changed the channel and I don’t anticipate changing it back.

Black Muslims who are not really Muslims at all share the same hatred of all things American with Al Qaida, Hezbollah, ISIS, etc.

I think it is fine that Trump skips the event. Just don’t make up a lame excuse that he has a business deal that got in the way. This is just ridiculous.

Probably he had important business to attend. And even though he is not attending, most of the talk is still about him for the trivial reason of not attending.

With the backstabbing Gov. Nikki Haley in charge, I doubt the convention is very conservative. However, with Trump absent, perhaps Cruz will get more exposure. Unless the media decides not to cover him.

“Just don’t make up a lame excuse that he has a business deal that got in the way. This is just ridiculous.”

How could you possibly know whether or not Trump had a pending business deal?

Do you just believe whatever the MSM tells you to believe?

0bama has called 0bama a Muslim.

Anyone remember when StepOnallofus had to correct him, “You mean your CHRISTIAN faith?”.

Problem is that 0’s statement doesn’t make sense unless he HAD MEANT TO SAY “Muslim”.

“I am thankful that my opponent John McLame has not made an issue of my CHRISTIAN faith.” WTF?

Its not like he was an such an outspoken bible-thumper that it could have been used against him.

However if the work “Muslim” is used, it makes perfect sense that he would have given McLame a hat tip for not making an issue of it....

Idiot article claiming he dropped because of some dumb issue they want to make hay out of.

Reports are stupid.

Oh yeah!

VJ’s family, the Bowmans (James E. and Barbara Taylor), were up to their ears in Communists, who share Islamic hatred of all things American.

You made a reasonable and correct statement way up thread. Not sure why that gal took up for Obama the way she did against you.

Honestly, you should not have been her personal google and provided a link. You could provide 10 more. But do you think that will satisfy her? She won’t believe them. Watch and see if she don’t come back with a denial.

Don’t waste time arguing with a fool.

How do you know about Trump's schedule?

Trump has made many appearances and has been available to media. I am hoping Cruz will get some more attention. But perhaps not, the media talking points now still on Trump for not showing up.

Conservatives or those attacked by the left need to be very careful of the backstabbing Nikki Haley.
