The closing was done by Sajid Tarar.

Excerpt:

ELKRIDGE, Md.—A group called “Muslims for Trump”? It almost sounds like a joke.

But Sajid Tarar, a Pakistani immigrant who started the organization to convince his fellow Baltimore-area Muslims to support Donald Trump, is very serious. He argues that the presidential candidate who has proposed banning Muslim immigrants and surveilling or closing U.S. mosques is actually the best choice for his community.

“As Muslims, we have a hope that Trump can guide America toward the right direction,” Tarar, 56, told me earlier this month. “He’s rewriting history.”

While it’s definitely an unconventional opinion among Muslims, he isn’t alone. In a poll of Muslim voters conducted by the Council of American-Islamic Relations last month, 11% of respondents said they supported Trump. Tarar is one colorful example of this baffling and largely ignored voting bloc.

Islam is against everything Americans stand for. What's the point of being a moslem in the US?

They should either renounce and convert...or get out.

Mr. Tarar did a very good job. You can imagine the pressure he is under from CAIR, the Muslim Brotherhood, etc. He did good.
