What would you have Trump say, “I would never hire a Muslim under any circumstances.”
Yes, us Freepers would cheer, but we are put a tiny percentage of the overall electorate, can’t do much good unless you actually win elections.

Also,this is all he said “Oh absolutely, no problem with that,” Trump replied. “Would I consider putting a Muslim-American in my cabinet? Absolutely, no problem with that. OK?” There was not a quote about that he loves them.
