Raleigh, N.C. — Even before suggesting the United States should stop allowing Muslims into the country, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump did not exactly have the most welcoming attitude toward practitioners of Islam.
Trump has said he would "strongly consider" shutting down mosques and forcefully argued that "thousands" of Arabs in New Jersey cheered the destruction of the World Trade Center towers on 9/11.
In a piece published in Slate on Tuesday, William Saletan uses polling data to suggest that Trump isn't leading his flock to these ideas but is merely reflecting the attitudes held by at least a plurality of Republicans and not insignificant numbers of unaffiliated voters and Democrats.

Exactly! We’ve waited decades for a nonPC candidate that shares our feelings. Who would’ve thought it would be a billionaire!
Yes. Yes I am.
And it won’t be against the law because ISLAM IS NOT A RELIGION!!!!
Next time someone goes into a hissy fit over Trump’s statements regarding Muslims, that person should be challenged with: “Israel keeps Muslims out, controls its borders with soldiers, fences and walls, why can’t we do the same thing? If America is racist for wanting to control its border, is Israel not also racist?”
I hear that Dennis Prager a fanatical pro-Israel guy is busy denouncing Trump, someone should ask him that question.
How about prosecuting the mosques using RICO?
I know it won’t happen under the current Justice Department, but it does sound like a promising avenue.
It may come as a shock to the geniuses at Slate, but the reason we are Trump supporters is because we support his vision and ideas.
Dumb$#!ts!
Shutdown, my azz. Bulldoze the suckers.
“The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets, the faithful our soldiers”
The camps for The Base.
“...at least a plurality of Republicans and not insignificant numbers of unaffiliated voters and Democrats”
Oops - the author was reflecting the party line in the first half of this statement, but slipped and admitted the truth in the second - Trump has outgrown any party base.
I’m one of them
I would characterize Islam legally as a "mass movement with supernatural overtones."
Yea but why? Trump isn’t saying he’ll shut down all the Mosques. He just said we have to investigate and continue to investigate until we find out whats going on some of these Mosques.
Just like he said he’s not going to ban Muslims. He wants to “suspend” — as in temporarily stop until something is fixed.
GO DONALD!!!
Convert to hog operations. That why the site can never again be a mosque for these koranimals.
Im with him, they are breeding grounds and command centers for US attacks, besides I think we need more parking lots
