Washington (dpa) - Donald Trump's slash-and-burn attacks against Mexicans, women, immigrants and military heroes has expanded to Muslims, provoking another round of outrage on Friday over the leading Republican White House hopeful.
The business tycoon, who is seeking the conservative party's presidential nomination, is under fire for failing to rebuff anti-Muslim comments at a campaign rally Thursday.
Trump indicated that he would look into getting rid of Muslims during a question and answer session at the event in Rochester, New Hampshire, according to broadcast footage and The Hill newspaper.
One man stood up and said: "We have a problem in this country, it's called Muslims ... We know our current president is one - you know he's not even an American ... That's my question - when can we get rid of them?"

Amusingly, from Germany.
why would this create a firestorm
Making America America Again!
He said “we will look into that” in response to a statement about Jihadist training camps here in the USA.
I’m all for returning “our” Muslims to Mecca or whatever rock they crawled out from under.
The 112th phony outrage event against Trump in the last two months.. This time— he should have better answered a kook in the audience— and he should have answered him just as John McCain answered somebody else with a similar question.. Instead Trump basically brushed the guy off— What the hell was Trump thinking? I no longer care about our country being overrun by illegal immigrants and bad trade deals and worse treaties— I want a president who will answer a kook better..
This whole thing will help him. Besides, why the hell should REPUBLICANS be defending that turd Obama?? Trump said NOTHING offensive, unless of course, you are Mohammad Ibn Chris Ibn Christie, FOX news, or Linda Graham. Jihadi Muslims ARE a threat against America, Christians and Jews. The guy in the audience was correct. It foesn’t matter where the heck Obama was born, he is a national enemy. And if he isn’t Muslim, he sympattires with them - the Radical ones anyway.
Trump NEVER said such thing.
Karl Rove must be writing the headlines, today....

Why do we insist on kissing Muslim a$$es?
The left is up in arms that Trump didn’t refute the guy’s claim that Obammy is a Muzzie. First why should he deny it? Obammy himself said he was only to have a reporter correct him (if you can call Stephanopolis a reporter). Secondly Obammy hasn’t proven to the contrary. So why should Trump defend him?
He should say to Hillary,”Iran and Islam calls us the Great Satan. Did you ever denounce that as SOS and will you denounce it today. Shouldn’t you call those crazies down on that rhetoric?”
That was the exact point where Mr. Bipartisan Juan McLame started losing the election.
Heres what Trump should say Why are you offened that O might be muslim?? What do you have against muslims? I’m not offended, just curious since he has that he is and all. Curious not offended.
You should have seen Dana’s.face when Gutfeld suggested it might have been a plant. He pointed out how everyone knew all about Joe the Plumber almost instantly but this guy disappeared almost before event was over.
She said not a word to the contrary
Donald Trump’s slash-and-burn attacks against Mexicans [ILLEGAL ALIENS], women, immigrants [ILLEGAL ALIENS] and military heroes [JOHN MCCAIN]
Shocked face 😱
I think because Trump didn’t step into a trap. I don’t think anybody BUT BO should answer about his religious affiliation, etc.
