It's like a Rorschach test.

[SaveFerris]

Nice try, CNN. We’ll be sure you and the rest of liberal MSM will keep perpetuating the lies. And idiots will believe you.

Just like the “I can see Russia from my house” thingy.

[exnavy]

CNN=DNC

[And Chris Christie, Lindsey Graham and Jeb Bush emphatically said they believe Obama was born in the U.S. and criticized Trump for not standing up to the questioner.]

Gee, what a surprise.

[Paladin2]

Heb! claimed that President Muhammad is a Christian.

How does he know?

[ifinnegan]

“Muslim controversy”?

This is a 100% trumped up fake “controversy” based on a non-event.

It is a perfect example of the lack of any integrity, and in fact corruption, of the press.

[BigEdLB]

One point to Cruz and Santorum. One half point to Jindal zero to the rest.

[SpaceBar]

There is no Trump muslim controversy.

Never was.

A nutjob audience plant asked a question and Trump gave him a boilerplate answer.

It’s all the media.

[dp0622]

I’m sick of this whole dam country going bat crazy left wing.

If anybody has a dependable poll since Wednesday debacle, throw it out here.

Why do white people in this country and Western Europe hate themselves so much?

Their liberal “values” are DETESTED by muslims and they will be the first to go.

Next rally for Trump in NYC and I’m going.

And please, let there be counter protesters.

This has to be the most desperate phony outrage of the 17.5 phony outrages against Trump in the past two months. So, he didn't reply to some drunk guy's question in the midst of a raucous crowd of supporters, in a manner similar enough to how McCain replied to some elderly woman's marginally similar question eight years ago. Instead Trump decided to say his campaign would look into the alleged Muslim camps. Camps which have been reported on by among many other places, the nationally televised news program, The O'Reilly Factor.

We are supposed to base our votes for the world's most powerful position based upon those twenty seconds of Trump's life instead of looking at his positions on real issues that affect every American. We are supposed to believe that the twenty second exchange reveals Trump to be a racist, xenophobe because he made a joke about the guy's question being chosen first and did not condemn the man right away, as the always honorable McCain and any God fearing red blooded American certainly would have.

We are supposed to choose other candidates that do not have the lifetime of accomplishment in the private sector and do not represent our interests based on the belief that these other candidates would have responded to that question by immediately condemning the questioner. I feel sorry for the two or three individuals in the world, that would actually use that exchange as a factor in determining who is best able to lead our country in these difficult times..

What kind of imbeciles do they think we are? Does the media really believe they can convince voters that this brief, chaotic and ridiculous question and answer should be given serious weight in choosing the next leader of the free world? Alternatively, perhaps the media is so emotionally distraught over not being able to hand select our candidate that they are unable to see how idiotic and desperate it looks to insist it is worthy of even the smallest amount of consideration.

[ScottinVA]

Wow, that was a hard one to figure out.. set up a plant to ask that question to trip up the GOP frontrunner, froth themselves up over Trump’s non-correction of the comment, then promptly canvass all the other candidates about it.

They fancy themselves as slick, but in truth these “media” clowns are as stealthy as a fat, cookie jar-raiding 6-year-old.

[JudyinCanada]

I hope Trump responds with something like:

I don’t give a rat’s behind if Obama says he is Christian, muslim, or Mary, Queen of Scots, for that matter. What I care about is that he’s been a disaster for the country and we need to clean up after his failed policies.

If someone out there has the opinion that Obama is a non-American muslim, it’s not MY job to correct them. If the president has some people believing this, that’s HIS P.R. issue, not mine. People still have the right to believe what they want, and, last time I checked, say what they want, regardless of what the rest of us may or may not think.

[cripplecreek]

If Obama is a muslim he’s a pretty crappy one.

One thing is sure, he’s an anti Judaeo-Christian marxist.

[opentalk]

The Media is disgusting ...continue to make fools of themselves

[ballplayer]

The actual question the guy asked was about Muslim training camps in the US.Trump and the crowd laughed about his, The president is a Muslim claim.
Google Muslim training camps In the US and see how crazy his claim and question about that was,someone we all know did segments on their shows about them,so who is the nut,and who are the phonies like pretty fem boy Marco Rubio that pussy

[Diogenesis]

TippeeToes: "I can help Obama more than Boehner and McConnell".

Trump released a statement to The Washington Post defending his comments.

“The media wants to make this issue about Obama,” he told the Post. “The bigger issue is that Obama is waging a war against Christians in this country. Their religious liberty is at stake.”

[grania]

And if Trump had corrected the questioner he would've been criticized for denying the questioner his free speech rights.

One prevailing opinion is it was a "gotcha" and the power brokers were ready to pounce with fake outrage however Trump answered. How come the person who asked the question hasn't been identified and interviewed?

[BerryDingle]

What problem do liberals have with Islam that zippy needs defending? I thought Islam is the “Kool” religion.

[samtheman]

The more I think of it, the more I think the questioner was a plant by the Trump campaign. They know how to play the media like a harp. Strummmmmmmmmmm.....

[kenmcg]

In his book “Dreams of My Father” Obama proclaimed that in conflicts he would stand with Islam. He has stated that the greatest sound was the Muslim call to prayer. His #1 assistant Jarret was born in Iran and is Muslim. He celebrates Ramadan with Muslim clerics (he never celebrated Christmas in the WH with Christian clerics). He spent his early years being taught in an Indonesian school that was anti Semitic. Throughout his presidency he has been favorable to Iran and Islamists. Has done nothing to stop or slow down the mass executions of Christians by Muslims and a prayer breakfast proclaimed that Christians were to blame for the current problems because of the crusades.Mr. Trump was correct when not correcting the questioner. Obama's heart is with the Muslims and certainly not with Christianity.
