Presidential Message on Ramadan
The White House ^ | May 15, 2018 | Donald J. Trump

Posted on 05/16/2018 2:45:26 AM PDT by Ulmius

With the rising of tonight’s moon, I send my greetings and best wishes to all Muslims observing Ramadan in the United States and around the world.

During the holy month of Ramadan, Muslims commemorate the revelation of the Quran to the prophet Muhammad through fellowship and prayer. Many observe this holy time by fasting, performing acts of charity, reciting prayers, and reading the Quran.

Ramadan is a time of self-reflection intended to deepen one’s spiritual growth and renew a sense of appreciation for the many blessings God provides. In this spirit of thanksgiving and reflection, those observing Ramadan can strengthen our communities, help those in need, and serve as good examples for how to live a holy life.

Ramadan reminds us of the richness Muslims add to the religious tapestry of American life. In the United States, we are all blessed to live under a Constitution that fosters religious liberty and respects religious practice. Our Constitution ensures Muslims can observe Ramadan in accordance with the dictates of conscience and unimpeded by government. By doing so, the Constitution also furnishes varied opportunities for all Americans to deepen their understanding of the human soul.

As so many people unite to celebrate Ramadan, Melania and I join in the hope for a blessed month. Ramadan Mubarak.

Ramadan, a time of elevated goat humping, boy raping, woman beating, and terrorism...not exactly Christmas. One positive: All the daytime fasting and nighttime gorging cause the Muzzie scum to experience increased health problems, including heart attacks and strokes.

“Many observe this holy time by fasting, performing acts of charity, reciting prayers, and reading the Quran.”

While also maintaining a level of “taqiyya” for appearances sake.

Like the one in Texas who wanted to celebrate Ramadan by killing cops and shooting up a mall?

Jihad season is upon us.

Bingo.

Disgusting how this sick society rolls over for these ruthless vicious MadMo followers. My own community has blossomed Moslem all over the place just in the last 5 years! And that’s not from do-Gooder efforts with black Somalis, that’s just pure Arab Islam moving in!

My Ramadan message:Mohamedanism is a cult of hate, founded by a camel-humping pedophile to justify rape, murder and theft. Mohammedans only contribution to America was introduction of every slave brought here.

He wrote God not the A-word. That will also infuriate the head loppers.

I have been accused of being jus that, though I am pretty much equal I/E.

I think Trump is about as E as it gets.

Compounding the problem.

Did President Trump really say this?

Muslims adding to the rich tapestry of life?

Tell me this is satire.

This is diappointing. I thought Trump would discontinue the annual Ramadan message. Why don’t us Christians get an Eater message???

***With the rising of tonight’s moon, I send my greetings and best wishes to all Muslims observing Ramadan in the United States and around the world. ***

Could be a lead in for a remake of THE WOLFMAN.

“Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms, and the moon is full and bright.”

Agree 100%. The closest ideology it matches IMHO is Nazism.

What is interesting is I never learned in high school about the slavery of white Europeans conducted through Tangiers by the Barbary Pirates. Why didn’t we learn about that?
