Trump on a Muslim President: ‘Some People Have Said it Already Happened’
Breitbart ^

Posted on 09/20/2015 10:01:16 AM PDT by springwater13

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” host Chuck Todd asked Republican front-runner Donald Trump, “Can you imagine supporting or being comfortable if a Muslim ever became president of the United States?”

Trump said, “I can say it’s something that at some point could happen. We’ll see. I mean you know at some point it could happen. Would I be comfortable? I don’t know if we have to address it right now but I think it’s certainly something that could happen.”

Talking over Todd he added, “Some people have said it already happened, frankly, but, of course, you wouldn’t agree with that.”

Todd said, “But let’s get to that. Why won’t you concede that the president is a Christian and that the president was born in the United States?”

Trump said, “Because I don’t talk about people’s faith. now, in all fairness he said he was a Christian. He attended the church of Reverend Wright and so, you know, I’m willing to take him at his word for that. I have no problem with that.”

Btw, I understand you're trying to run defense for this poster who made a false statement. I understand the groupie clique thing. But you might be well advised to keep out of this. ☺

Clearly he doesn’t think it would compromise safety, or he WOULD have a problem with it.

Early on in #44 ya made a false statement on what Trump specifically said and you conveniently omitted a key word.

Is this correct Cathy? Yes or no?

This should only take a second for you to answer.

He explains exactly what he meant only seconds later in the clip, and it is perfectly consistent with the context of the conversation.

His actions over the last seven years are more credibly explained by his being a leftist. There are piles of non-Muslim leftists who hold the exact same policy positions as him.

Why are you evading the question Cathy?

You are right in a way. We’re so busy arguing the details that we can’t see the big fact that he is a liar and a scoundrel no matter what he believes.

But it is relevant in terms of the present election cycle and what the various candidates say about it. We don’t want to be fooled twice.

Nope. If it were a slip of the tongue he would have accepted Steph’s correction and moved on. But that’s not what he does. He accepts it for just a moment but then drops it and explains what he really meant.

The bickering back and forth is a drag FWIW and I’m advising myself to exit the thread. Carry on, eheheheheh.

Yea!!! Just this a.m. I was discussing how someone should mention Reverend Wright when being asked about Obammy’s faith. Christian or Muslim - whatever he is or claims to be, Obama worshiped with Wright for 20 years, which leaves a lot to the imagination.......

Thank you, Mr. Trump!!

There is no argument Obama is a evil lying SOB. Trump KO’d the MSM reporter. Most here understand this. The problem I have is when others make false statements about Trump, in an attempt to shift the blame and hijack threads with their false statements. It reeks and smells like MSM.

And I apologize to springwater for being compelled to defend against this type BS on the thread he posted. But this is what is needed in America today, instead of backing down from these types of tactics.

Take care.

BINGO!!! Thanks for posting that....it's what I've been shouting to the mountain top for 2 days!!

It would make NO sense for McCain to make an issue of Christian faith, since all Presidents and most Americans ARE CHRISTIAN!!

Do you like that Trump has made you into a card-carrying member of the GOPe?

Yeah....a charter member of the Mitt Romney Fan Club. C'mon.

Trump is the worst nightmare of the GOPe. Who else could've gotten an effective movement going against the DC sewer dwellers and their enablers?
