Potential 2012 GOP presidential contender Donald Trump says there “absolutely” is a Muslim problem in the world, and he “couldn’t believe” a mosque is being built near the site of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center. Trump also told Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly Wednesday night it is important President Barack Obama produce his birth certificate, and put the issue to rest.
In the first part of an interview, the continuation of which will be aired Thursday night, Trump touched on a wide range of social and fiscal issues, including his opposition to gay marriage; his pro-life stance; his opinion that U.S. borders should be militarized to deter illegal immigration; his views on union activity; and the need to be able to shop for healthcare.
O’Reilly asked Trump whether there is a Muslim problem in the world.
“Absolutely, absolutely — I don’t notice Swedish people knocking down the World Trade Center,” Trump said. “I came out very strongly against the mosque being built virtually across the street.
“The fact is, it was so insensitive when they announced the mosque in that location,” he said. “Don’t forget, that’s my territory — Manhattan. When they announced the mosque in that location, I couldn’t believe it.”
Trump said although there is a world Muslim problem, it does not reflect on all Muslims.
“And that’s the sad part about life, because you have fabulous Muslims — I know many Muslims, and they are fabulous people, they’re smart, they’re industrious,” he said. “Unfortunately, at this moment in time, there is a Muslim problem in the world.”

Maybe he needs to do business in Chicago. Seriously.
The Donald has a big swinging pair, don’t he.
This country is beset with a Muslim problem, the states and federal gov’t have untold obligations which they can’t meet, our southern border is wide open, Americans are being killed there, the drug cartels are operating freely there, the President of Mexico is trying to dictate the way we handle illegals. All this could well bring this country down. Congress is unwilling to do what must be done. The RATS are trying to make sure we lose.
His wife sure does.
The World has a “Political Correctness Problem” 30 years ago we would just Exterminate the Vermin ... now we have to Tolerate and Understand them.
Political Correctness will be the Clinton’s Albatross forever!
TT
Well, I must admit I dismissed him, but it seems he has a set.
I think it is important to remain faithful to your wife. That is, in my world at least, a given.
However, when it comes to running a business or government, infidelity is amongst the lesser sins. Donald knows how to get stuff done. Quite frankly, would you rather have Donald chasing the muzzies, and the babes or Obama selling us out.
I think I know the answer.
“Not me. Don’t trust him, never will. He’s saying all the right things now, but to what end? He’s likely to go third party and peel away just enough votes to get O back in office.”
I don’t trust any GOP politician that refuses to highlight the stark differences between them and Democrats - which pretty much includes, well......All of them.
If Trump continues to bluntly address the obvious issues that every Democrat and Republican refuse to address, what’s the problem?
***** “How can I put this... In order to get his cement delivered, Trump had to deal with certain individuals. These guys, some may say they are “wise”, ( if you get my drift )” *****
Just had a thought ... The Donald may have access to Information that you can’t get without the help of “certain individuals”
Everything has it’s Price and the Donald may have “Invested” some of his considerable assets for that “fly on the wall info”
TT
He’s coming out the gate like a raeal winner! Go Trummp!!!!
Tossing out the stuff is one thing, what he actually believes and practices is another thing entirely.
"Trump touched on a wide range of social and fiscal issues, including his opposition to gay marriage; his pro-life stance; his opinion that U.S. borders should be militarized to deter illegal immigration; his views on union activity; and the need to be able to shop for healthcare."
Looks like places I want to go.
Still taking a wait and see. Gonna take a lot for me to trust him.
“Maybe he needs to do business in Chicago. Seriously.”

Sweet. Gotta keep those building inspectors in line...
Trump was on BOR again tonight and said that we should take over the oil fields in Iraq for ourselves. That, alone, is enough to get my vote.
That proclamation delivered by Churchill was in 1906. I know the news cycles back then were a tad slow, but I'd have thought we would have gotten that word by now.
He did, genius. You shouldn't comment on events you didn't actually watch.
The substantiation was elegant in its simplicity :
Just read the daily newspapers and reports of world events!
Useless opinions without argument are such a waste of time!
I agree, of course. However, one who is unfaithful in important matters is not trustworthy. I think trustworthiness is an important character trait for anyone that wants to lead.
