Donald Trump is hitting back twice as hard as Democrats — led by the White House – attack him for not rebuking a town-hall questioner who declared that President Barack Obama is a Muslim.
“The bigger issue is that Obama is waging a war against Christians in this country,” Trump tells The New York Times.
But he also said that Americans liked the fact that he did not react to things like voter anger and debate questions with the ordinary language of politicians.

This Trump skeptic says Bravo Donald Trump.
“While the surrender wing of the GOP rushed to cower at the feet of their media overlords, this guy saw opportunity to pivot, again taking control of the conversation. Brilliant.”
Exactly! This is precisely the right response.
Anybody other than Trump or Cruz will be a huge huge letdown
“When I read Donald’s response, I read between the lines. With that response, isn’t he subtly suggesting that right now, only the Muslims are persecuting Christians worldwide and therefore, Obama, who is doing the same, is acting like a Muslim?”
Obama coddles and praises muslims.
Obama attacks Christians and will not lift a finger for the Christians being murdered.
You decide.
This is a very, very good point.
Your analysis is spot on. He's a non-believer who is a Marxist where the ends justify the means - he will say anything or do anything to advance his cause. And the fact that he has hidden so much from the American people, birth truth, school transcripts, social security fraud, etc. and that what he has revealed, through his books, prove him to be the fraud on the American people that he is.
Someone might read that into his reply, but I believe the truth is Donald was surprised with the question and handled it without upsetting the man and moving on to next question. The man was obviously upset about the fact that Obama now wants to bring in 100 thousand refugees instead of 10 thousand! The fear the man has is terrorism here in America.
Bottom Line, Obama has stated he is a Pastor Wright kind of Christian. In my opinion being called a Muslim would be better than an America hating Christian!!

Muslims My Ass…
Excellent!
I want to shake the guy’s hand that wrote this…
Have you ever seen a Muslim hospital?
Have you heard a Muslim orchestra?
Have you seen a Muslim band march in a parade?
Have you witnessed a Muslim charity?
Have you shaken hands with a Muslim Girl Scout?
Have you seen a Muslim Candy Striper?
The answer is no, you have not. Just ask yourself WHY ???
Barack Obama, during his Cairo speech, said: “I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America ‘s history.”
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN’S RESPONSE:
Dear Mr. Obama:
Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.
Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.
Can you show me one Muslim signature on the: United States Constitution?
Declaration of Independence ?
Bill of Rights?
Didn’t think so.
Did Muslims fight for this country’s freedom from England ? No.
Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America ? No, they did not.
In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half-brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as “pug nosed slaves.” Says a lot of what the Muslim world really thinks of your family’s “rich Islamic heritage,” doesn’t it Mr. Obama?
Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country?
Not present.
There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.
Where were Muslims during this country’s Woman’s Suffrage era?
Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the ‘hajib’ or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women’s rights, aren’t they?
Where were Muslims during World War II?
They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops and accepted support from the Nazi’s in killing Jews.
Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001?
If they weren’t flying planes into the World Trade Center , the Pentagon or a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news network’s that day. Strangely, the very “moderate” Muslims who’s asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4thwere stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the “rich heritage” Muslims have here in America …
Oh, I’m sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslims.
And now we can add November 5, 2009 – the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan .
Also, don’t forget the Boston Marathon bombing on April 15.2013 was done by 2 Muslim Brothers. That, Mr. Obama is the “Muslim heritage” in America.
GO TRUMP!
What is negative about saying Mr. Obama is a muslim or at least pro-Islamist and NOT a Christian?
Because it’s dishonest.. Marxists despise religion..
ALL OF THEM.. their the “OPIATE” of the people ...you know..
Obama could care less about religion UNLESS he can use it..
like the Russians and Chinese do.. OFTEN..
Yes! The media and the left always have different rules for Republicans vs Dems. Do as we say, not as we do.
Look...
Obama wrote on his application to Harvard Law School that was a Muslim.
Obama wrote on his application to Columbia University that he was a Muslim.
Obama wrote on his application to Occidental that he was a Muslim.
His diversity-score helped him get in. Just check out those applications and you’ll see the truth of the charge.
Moreover, everyone knows that Obama’s biological father was a Muslim and that his step-father was a Muslim.
And his mother? She seemed to have no problem being “Koran-permitted-wife-#-2” to Obama’s father. Bigamy is NOT Ok with Christians.
He should have said ‘Obama is a decent family man ...’
“I doubt Obama is a practicing Muslim but if you look at Rev Wright, he’s very sympathetic to Islam (even more so considering his family history). He’s going to support Islam over any Christian.”
Obama is an Islamic sympathist but his roots are deep in socialism via Marshall, U of Columbia, Wright and Chicago ...
I quite agree.
Trump rocks! Barry and the Hive are just not quick enough to get ahead of him. Trump is diabolical. :-)
Because they know he is a Muslim
Here is my response to the attack by Chris Matthews & Bill Maher (two of the most ridiculous intellectual pretenders in the media):
"Yes, to be very clear. Donald Trump handled the questions that have Chris & Bill so excited, precisely in the most statesman like manner It was a splendid moment for Trump, if one fully understands the context.
"But before going into that, let me make it very clear. I am not anti-Muslim. I do not favor large scale immigration from the Near East, for the same reason that I do not favor large scale immigration from most places. We do not need new settlers; we do not need cultural diversity. But that is not directed against Islam. Yet none of that has really anything material to do with the subject of what happened at the Town Meeting.
"Trump's approach was not bigoted; not in the slightest. The article shows who was bigoted, and it is those "politically correct" crack-pots, who believe other people have a duty to stifle any thought with which those "politically correct" crackpots do not agree. (The defined category includes Hillary Clinton, and quite a few confused babblers, of which Matthews & Maher are perhaps among the grossest examples.)
"Stifling free expression is not the duty of a candidate; it is not the moral duty of anyone. It is, to be sure, the essence of the "politically correct" crackpot! And Donald has already, clearly distanced himself from the "politically correct" crackpots. In that, he is truly a breath of fresh air.
"Now Islam is not the issue, in dealing with this thread. Obama's upbringing, and ideological orientation, and the bases for all of that, are continuing issues, whether Matthews & Maher want to gobble something otherwise or not. And many Americans are not convinced that Obama was actually born here. Just who are Matthews & Maher to say that no one should be permitted to inquire into such subjects?"
That’s a really good point. It’s like how liberals say there is nothing wrong with homosexualism and then at the same time use “gay” as an insult against conservatives that they don’t like.
