Yes, it’s Donald Drumpf again, pandering to the most hate-filled elements of the right wing base, telling Anderson Cooper that the entire religion of Islam has “an unbelievable hatred of us.”
Then with his typical belligerent cowardice, Trump refuses to acknowledge what he just said.
Cooper asks him, “In Islam itself?” And Trump responds, “You’re gonna have to figure that out, OK? You’ll get another Pulitzer, right?”
Trump then reiterates that he wants to totally ban Muslims from entering the US, saying, “We have to be very vigilant, we have to be very careful, and we can’t allow people coming into this country who have this hatred of the United States.”
And again we should note that Trump is simply stating outright what all the GOP candidates believe; the rest of them are just a little more careful with their rhetoric.
