Unless Trump apologizes or states he believes Hussein to be a Christian, his numbers will go up with the accusations. The more strident they become the more the voters will come to believe that Hussein just might be a Mohammedan, after all. If Trump gets cold feet and apologizes or states Hussein is a Christian he will validate the accusations and lose support.
Trump won’t apologize. You can be sure of that.
“If Trump gets cold feet and apologizes or states Hussein is a Christian he will validate the accusations and lose support.”
He won’t apologize, as he has stated that he doesn’t apologize for something he hasn’t done. This is all ex post facto nonsense generated by the press.
