Taqqiyah.
I hear you. But he strikes me as sincere, albeit misguided or misled as to Trump's intention and feeling. He's staked out a position where, if the Constitution and Sharia are in a contest, he would choose the constitution. I'm not saying he would stay there, but unlike many others, he does not say the two forms of law can co-exist. He was pretty harsh on Sharia in the interview. Didn't have a single good thing to say about it.
