Please, please let this be the moment that America stands up and says enough is enough.
Last night the Donald called for all Muslims to be banned from entering the US, first in a campaign press release and later in an address to supporters in South Carolina. That video up top is Trump appearing in front of what must surely be a collection of some of the country’s least intellectually capable citizens with CNN reporting:
“Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on,” a campaign press release said…
Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski told CNN on Monday that the ban would apply not just to Muslim foreigners looking to immigrate to the U.S., but also to Muslims looking to visit the U.S. as tourists.
“Everyone,” Lewandowski said when asked if the ban would also apply to Muslim tourists…
Trump confirmed that his policy would not apply to current Muslims in the U.S. during a Fox News interview on Monday evening.
“I have Muslim friends, Greta, and they’re wonderful people. But there’s a tremendous section and cross-section of Muslims living in our country who have tremendous animosity,” he told Fox News anchor Greta Van Susteren. “It does not apply to people living in the country, except we have to be vigilant.”
And in case you weren’t sure that Trump’s supporters are morons of the highest order then check these reactions to his big announcement:
‘Merica, a place where people will defend to the death their right to own guns but quite happily dehumanise other people based on their religious beliefs. How about coast guard veteran Dan King, one of 400 people at the address in South Carolina:
Asked what he thought of Barack Obama’s Oval Office address to the nation on combatting Islamic State and the domestic threat of extremism, he replied: “What’s his name? I refuse to say it. I call him Muhammed Kobama.”
You can listen to Kobama’s Oval Office address HERE in case you feel like checking if Dan has a point.
