Donald Trump Says London’s Muslim Mayor Could Be Exception to Ban (Dammit)
Time ^ | 5-9-2016 | Sarah Begley

Donald Trump proposed a temporary ban on all Muslims entering the U.S. should he be elected president, but he might have at least one name on his list of exceptions: Sadiq Khan, the new mayor of London.

“There will always be exceptions,” Trump said on Monday, according to the New York Times. “I was happy to see that [he was elected] … Because I think if he does a great job, it will really—you lead by example, always lead by example. If he does a good job and frankly if he does a great job, that would be a terrific thing.”

Those dipshits overseas will do their best to tarnish Mr. Trump in any way they can while Donald for his part is being a gentleman towards them.

Sounds as though Trump is giving him the benefit of the doubt. IF he does a good job, etc.

Someone needs to get the news to Trump’s people that this mayor is the usual type of horrible mohammedan. I saw some stuff about him, maybe I’ll put it together and send it to them. Hopefully Islamist experts are advising Trump and will give him a clue about this mayor.

I agree with you.

The Islamic problem is so pernicious that it needs to be stopped dead in it’s tracks.

See, Trump is going to reverse on everything that matters.

There is no reversal here. His position was he wanted to pause the unchecked influx of Muslims until we can get a handle on who is likely to be a terrorist. He wanted us to only allow Muslims into our country where we can be reasonably sure they are not terrorists. I think that its reasonably clear this London Mayor, although maybe a whacky labour party leftist, is not a terrorist. Thus no reversal. The idea that he wanted an absolute ban on all Muslims forever in all cases was a misunderstanding that his critics seemed to have adopted.

As to him saying the stuff about him being thrilled and hopes he does a great job, one needs to understand that Trump is not endorsing the guy's funky leftwing beliefs, but being gracious and diplomatic with room to come after the guy later if he finds that he does not do a "great job". If he came after the mayor fresh off his election because of a differing ideology, it would make Trump look petty and unreasonable. Trump is a smart guy and knows how to persuade people and negotiate and position himself.

“However, he apparently believes the new London Mayor might be able to lead by example—perhaps becoming a valuable ally in “figuring what the hell is going on” in the war on Radical Islamic Terrorism!!!!”

Eegads.

That is the exact reason the FBI is inviting CAIR and Muslim Brotherhood groups to advise them.

Yeah, maybe if we waterboard the new mayor, we can get all the information he has on radical islamic terror. I was wrong- he could be a valuable ally

Well, it’s Islams dead in it’s tracks, or ours.

I vote Islam.

Let them live back home with that ideology. Fine by me.

Here? No way!

And I qualify that “back home” comment with the idea we are left in peace. Otherwise... expect a world of hurt.

Bless you. Thanks so much for posting the video regarding the Remembrance Project Families. Mr. Trump is a genuine hero and champion. He is the ONLY one who understands what is so wrong and knows what must be done to change things!! Thanks again!!

Why so hypersensitive to Trump criticism?

And in your misplaced zeal you are confusing me with other posters. I haven’t advocated for ANY presidential candidate since a decade or more before FR was established (and rarely even comment on political threads).
