After the mass shooting in Orlando by a man who pledged allegiance to the Islamic terrorist group ISIS, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump reiterated his call for a temporary ban on Muslims coming to the United States ...
Trump [to Sean Hannity], "Assimilation has been very hard. It's almost -- I won't say nonexistent, but it gets to be pretty close. And I'm talking about second and third generation. They come -- they don't -- for some reason, there's no real assimilation." ...
We concluded that the implication of what Trump said -- that Muslims want to isolate themselves from the mainstream American culture -- is flat wrong. However, we also learned that the question involves some important nuance. In particular, the task of "assimilation" facing post-1960s immigrants to America is more complicated than, and thus distinct from, what it was for white, Christian, European immigrants who came to the United States in prior generations ...

The researchers concluded that "Muslim Americans appear to be highly assimilated into American society."
Then how come you had to interview people in Arabic, Farsi and Urdu?
Politifarce qualifying in order to disqualify - typical lying left.
It’s one way assimilation.....the Muslims want us all converted or dead.
In all of the groups I have ever been a part of, whether sports related, school related and what have you, muslims ALWAYS kept to their own groups defined by their religion. I have NEVER seen them try to assimilate.
Good point.
Buwahahaha... That’s funny right there.
Could be? Hammer meet nail.
Live in the same area “Pew” and see for yourself rather than poll those with a self-interest to say “assimilation”
It ain’t happenin’ so keep on spreading the false narrative
A “win-win” for both
Okay, Now, author, since you made this conclusion, please show how you arrived at it. Please show the research you did,showing that the vast majority of Muslims think just like us, and fit very well into western society. My personal observations, and indeed 1500 years of history, demonstrate otherwise. Frankly, I believe that if we continue to buy into this political correctness, we are all going to be dead or slaves. Wake-up, author, they hate us, including you; they call us the Great Satan.
"So it is dangerous, irresponsible and incorrect for Trump to make statements like this and demonize the entire community," Ahmed said.
We've read your book Achmed! You know the one that says it is OK to lie to infidels! Your belief in your religious law is proof that you can never assimilate into American society. You will go to Hell and we are fools if we allow you to take us along for the ride.
Flat wrong they are delusional and lying bastards, islam and western society are at the two far ends of the spectrum
Trump is very right. Probably the least good assimilated group in the country.
If you can spot them, they haven’t assimilated.
That must be why 50% want Sharia Law.
Politfacts is run by a Muslim terrorist media operation in St Pete FL
Here a an Olde but goody attack by PoliHacks involving M Bachman
This radical group has been conspiring with the radical Muslim invasion for a long time !
some people of any group manage to assimilate
we do NOT want Moslems here, they are (a very large number of them) extremely dangerous... they’ve been taught from the cradle to hate Christians and Jews...and to want to attack maim and subjugate or murder us all
SEND THEM HOME TO THE OTHER 56 innocent nations they’ve already conquored by this exact Moslem “mass immigration” war strategy
It’s hard to consider them assimilated when they have a religious obigation to kill us.
letting the MOslems stay in USA will be our NATIONAL SUICIDE
