Trump backers baffled by criticism of his Muslim proposal (PC silliness)

GREER, S.C. (AP) — As she's working the counter at a hole-in-the-wall hot dog stand named Rosie's in upstate South Carolina, Tracy Hooker isn't interested in debating the merits of Donald Trump's proposal to temporarily block Muslims from coming into the United States.

She knows some people think it's bigoted. That others argue it's impractical, legally dubious or both. And that every other Republican running for president has, in some way or another, rejected the idea the plan is even worth talking about.

That's why she says Trump is "my guy."

He's the only one who gets it.

"Think about it. You don't know what you've got here. You've got no clue," she said of the Muslim tourists, immigrants and refugees Trump wants to temporarily bar from coming to the U.S.

"You don't know if they like us. You don't know if they hate us," said Hooker, 47, of Greer, South Carolina. "You don't know why they're here."

To Hooker and the dozens of Trump supporters interviewed in the past week by The Associated Press in the first-to-vote states of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, the near universal condemnation of the billionaire's plan is simply baffling.

In the wake of the attacks in Paris and shootings in San Bernardino, they say only Trump is taking on what they believe is a clear and present danger to America and its citizens.

If Trump or Cruz are elected president, their first order of business should be to dismantle the MSM/Democrat propaganda machine.

If it wasn't for the daily crap it churned out, liberalism would only be found in history books.

A know nothing bumpkin named hooker, bigoted bitch, working at a hole in the wall, supports Trump.

That is a fair and balanced way to start an analysis.

These msm pricks don't even try to disguise their twisted hatred for Trump.

Keep it up Donald.

Go Cruz.
