Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said Sunday that there is a "very severe problem" with some Muslims, and declined to say whether he'd support a Muslim president of the United States.

In an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press," Trump said that he feels "strongly that Muslims are excellent. I know so many Muslims that are such fabulous people.

But he continued,"We can be politically correct and say there is no problem whatsoever, but the fact is, there is a problem with some and it's a very severe problem and it's a problem that's taking place all over the world.

Trump has the best of the best of advisors, he has spent his whole life building an empire of talented people, far far better than any elected official.

Thats his greatest asset i think, i can see many a politician that has failed because of a weak support team.

All Muslims have divided loyalties and one should never (again) be a US president. They are the enemy!

This is the next line of attack on all Republican candidate. Ben Carson is being attacked on this front as well.

The new ‘loyalty oath’ apparently is if you are willing to submit to Islam.

More than a third of Republican voters say that Carly Fiorina performed best in the Wednesday night debate on CNN. But debate performances don’t translate into vote preference overnight, and Donald Trump maintains his position at the top of the Republican pack, according to the latest NBC News online survey conducted by SurveyMonkey from Wednesday through Friday.

Muslims following the Koran are evil. “Muslims” that don’t follow the Koran are not Muslim by definition.

“Excellent Muslims” are an impossibility unless you consider evil to be excellent. Since I don’t think Trump considers evil to be excellent I have to logically conclude he was being less than forthright in his statement on Muslims.

He was being PC.

“.. i can see many a politician that has failed because of a weak support team.”

I can see many a Republican who has failed because they hired one of the ‘usual suspect’ advisors - some of who appear to be potential ‘double agents’.

it's a very severe problem and it's a problem that's taking place all over the world.

Insert brutal images of torture, abuse, and murder of civilians around the globe at the hands of Islamonazis.

On the socialist networking sites they claim this is because of poverty, etc. That doesn't explain the very public support from Western jihadists who are joining Islamic State terrorists.

...Debates alone rarely move poll numbers in big ways, and Trump continues to lead the crowded field with 29 percent of Republican and independent voters who lean Republican saying they would cast their vote for him....

I can just imagine a brainstorm comittee of a possible anti Apprentice show, how Trump interviews two teams of “political’ plants all trying to compete to be his advisor for running to be President.

And Trump, being Trump will find many a hilarious escaped to demeanor them.

And Trump her off the headlines, so she didn't get much play from winning the debate.

BTW, I like your name for her...Snarly. Fits perfectly.

He seems to pick people well save for his runaway campaign manager or whatever he was.

Has anyone ever seen:

Does the Trump Organization have unions?
Any of the 20000 or more of his employees come forward with a gripe?
Any business associate come forward saying he is crooked?
Any of his children in rebellion?
Any of his former wives in rebellion?
Any charges of illegal dealings?
Etc.

The United States is locked in a Manichaean struggle between the forces of ascendancy and the forces of decadence. If the forces of decadence prevail, North America will descend into a hellhole.

The same is true of all of Western Civilization.

Whether or not Trump prevails depends upon the size, power, and resolve of the forces of ascendancy.

Pray for the triumph of ascendancy.

And note tagline.

“I know so many moslems are such fabulous people”...

Pelosi, Reid, obama, Hillary, Oprah, et al are such fabulous people, not that there is anything wrong with that...
