'I have at least 20 Muslim friends', says Donald Trump, but can't name them
The Daily Telegraph ^ | February 7, 2015 | David Lawler, New Hampshire

Posted on 02/07/2016 10:53:43 PM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

..... The Republican presidential candidate has repeatedly said that "Muslims love him" despite his provocative policies, but has so far failed to name any single individual Muslim supporter.

Asked by the Telegraph to elaborate, Mr Trump again ducked the question responding: "Oh, I could give you about 20 of them."...

Donald Trump Junior, Mr Trump's son, was also unable to tell the Telegraph who his father's Muslim friends were, saying only that they had "completed a lot of business deals" in the Middle East.

I might also add that considering how big the Trump organization is and how many investments he has world wide, I’d be hard pressed to believe he doesn’t have several Muslim friends. While not world wide but state wide I’ve done several business deals with individuals and companies and consider them all my friends. You’re really struggling if you think this is damaging to Trump.

You know, CW, you backed Walker and he was a loser who quit the race early, and now you are pushing Cruz, another loser who will also be beaten. Whose the next loser you plan on backing. Heaven help the next poor sap candidate you end up championing, as you are their kiss of death. How about you pick Rubio next. That would be a very good choice on your part, lol.

This should be easy for Trump. Just name the Muslims he said told him they support his ban on Muslim’s entering the country.

How is this a "hitpiece?"

It's a hit piece because you posted it in the middle of the night with the only purpose of helping Cruz by harming Trump.

You will not win for Cruz by dumping on Trump supporters.

I axed you very politely not to back Cruz after the doctors released you from the mental institution because of your breakdown over scotty dog walker, but you, vile, evil, crazy witch that you are, could not he'p yourself.

May God have mercy on your soul because your mind is already gone, you're as crazy as bernie or hildabutchbitch.

STFU

“I’ve found that those who accuse - smear others to discredit their”.........

With your numerous and well timed posts against Trump, it would appear that you, yourself are “Guilty!”

“well timed posts”

This is news; this is history; it’s all out there.

Connect the dots.

I do.

And it’s my own work - unpaid and unsolicited.

Business associates, of course. He does business in the mid-east. And he’s not going to name those. Use common sense.

I think it’s likely that he isn’t friends enough with any Muslims to have them over to his home. I don’t think that’s an indicator of anything other than it appears he had to pretend he was friends with some yet he could not name them.

Do you have a substantive response to the information in the article or just this boilerplate? You are not doing anything to dispel the notion that the support for Trump is nothing more than a boilerplate. Post something to show why you think all of this information isn't a reason for concern and reassure people. "Because Trump, Because winning" does not do the job.

Any proof that Trump lied and doesn't have a number of friends/acquaintances that also happen to be Muslim?

Neither do I. I’ve had acquaintances in eight Muslim countries, but no friends.

I post on issues I care about. I’m not surprised that, since you disagree with me, you presume my motive must be pecuniary. This is the way a Trumpster thinks. If someone is not onboard with the new messiah and chooses to stay outside the cult, he’s either insane or being financed to think differently, eh kiryandil?

The better answer would be to say that he won't name them because he doesn't want them targeted.

Among other things, I am aware that he is doing a major golf course project in Dubai and the flap over his Muslim immigration content quickly disappeared when he clarified it to the client privately.

What a stupid article...anti-Trump people really getting low in their desperation. Why would Trump put out friends names to a vicious media and their cohorts? Get a life!
