Trump to CNN: 'I love the Muslims'
CNN ^ | 09/19/2015 | MJ Lee

Posted on 09/19/2015 7:21:47 PM PDT by ScottWalkerForPresident2016

Donald Trump on Saturday responded to a question from CNN about whether Muslims pose a danger to the country, saying: "I love the Muslims. I think they're great people."

The Republican presidential front-runner made the comment after addressing high school students here at their homecoming Saturday night.

During a question-and-answer session with students, Trump was unable to avoid being asked about the latest political controversy dogging his campaign: his decision not to correct a supporter this week who called President Barack Obama a Muslim.

One student told Trump that she considered Muslim-Americans to be an important segment of the country. They asked whether the billionaire businessman would consider putting a Muslim in his Cabinet or on his ticket.

"Oh, absolutely," Trump responded. "No problem with that."

I am not the only one who will abandon Trump because he is “soft” on Islam.

I’d wager that all of the Republican candidates will get the same “gotcha” question. But no Democrats, of course.

After all, the “Religion of Peace” has fallen into the politically correct “untouchable” area of public discourse.

So now, we are going to have a Moslem “Love Feast,” while they plot to destroy us!

INSANITY!

The real moron is the one who goes around accusing others of moronhood.

So then why don't you find the posters who initiated the "moronhood" accusations and tell them that.

I’ll tell you what, kelly4c:

1. When the [reportedly] 90% of non-violent Moslems start taking down the [reportedly] 10% of violent Moslems, and

2. When the Moslem led nations of the world begin attacking the [reportedly] 10% violent Moslems, and

3. When ALL Moslems disavow violence in pursuit of spreading the “Religion of Peace,” and

4. When the Islamic Reformation takes flower and the various violent Islamic splinter groups are disabled and destroyed,

5. When every Mosque that harbors Imams who preach violence against non-Moslems is destroyed by other Moslems, and

6. When Imams who preach violence against non-Moslems are killed by other Moslems,

Then, MAYBE, just MAYBE I’ll reconsider.

Just reading your posts lowers one's IQ, FreeReign. Fortunately, I've got a lot to spare, and I'll cease while I'm ahead. Unfortunately for you, you have to read your own posts.

LOL. So I easily address your two points and your insult and you are left with repeating your mindless insult.

kiryandil, dummy.

The best way to deal with the problem is to not allow Moslems into America!

“Insanity” is exactly how I would describe your freaked out post.

A complete non-sequitur is another valid description.

Enjoy Trump becoming President!!!

A Muslim in his cabinet or on his ticket, huh?

That’s what we want for America?

Liberal Trump is showing who he really is...and once again, his fans will fall over themselves trying to excuse it, just like yesterday when he said he loves ethanol subsidies.

If they could find a magical way to unhear it, I have no doubt they would.

I beg yer’ puddin’.....er....aah....PARDON!
(As my old Platoon Sergeant used to say to us troopies, “Don’t misconscrew what I’m sayin.’”)

Well, I misconscrewed what you said. Worse than that, I replied to the wrong guy. Someone questioned whether Trump had ever stated any concern for the muslim problem; since his statement yesterday that we were discussing, COULD be misconscrewed as him giving all muslims a pass.

So MY reply was that Trump has expressed concern for muslim terrorists in every one of his speeches; especially when he was answering some hankie twister who was concerned about his harsh TONE. He said the muslims are beheading innocent Christians all over the place, and you’re upset over MY TONE?!

He REALLY put the thing to bed this morning when he gave the answer that there are some VERY BAD muslims at large, and he intends to deal with them.

At this point, I really don’t care much about the muslim cigar store proprietor.

Happy trails.

The quandary is in the phrase ‘really believes in US Constitution’. I do not know all the thinking/thoughts that the Founders put into the formulating of such a Document. However, at the same time I can use my own perception as to whether or not such an expression satisfies/coincides with my beliefs.

Right. Just because Trump loves late-term abortion, touch-back amnesty, single-payer health care and supports fellow travelers like Pelosi, doesn’t mean he isn’t a rock-ribbed conservative.

He has to say this UNTIL he is elected. We do know this, right?

Because lying to the American people is just a great trait. We do know this, right?

"A radical Muslim wants to behead you; a moderate Muslim wants a radical Muslim to behead you."

Hope not.

My maid, driver, and wife are Muslim.

In fact, the vast majority of the country I live in is Muslim, but I have never felt safer in my life than living here.

go figure!

PS you are wrong.

Keep smiling,

Philip
