SL: Donald Trump’s Ongoing Support for a Muslim Ban

Donald Trump’s ongoing support for his dangerous ban on Muslims entering the United States remains strong, despite broad agreement that such a divisive measure would only make America less safe. It is clear that Donald Trump does not have the temperament or judgment needed to occupy the White House.

·         When asked whether he would stick by his ban in the general election, Trump said, “I don't care if it hurts me. I'm doing the right thing when I do this.” [Do we have a link? … Morning Joe, MSNBC, 5/4/16]

·         According to interviews<http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/05/us/politics/donald-trump-president.html?_r=0> with The New York Times, Trump plans to have his immigration Muslim ban in place within his first 100 days as President.

·         Trump’s website still notes<https://www.donaldjtrump.com/press-releases/donald-j.-trump-statement-on-preventing-muslim-immigration> that he “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. According to Pew Research, among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim populations.”

·         Trump has said<https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the-world-reacts-to-trumps-proposed-ban-on-muslims-entering-us/2015/12/08/50eea1dc-9d4a-11e5-9ad2-568d814bbf3b_story.html?hpid=hp_rhp-top-table-main_trumpworld-922am%3Ahomepage%2Fstory> he did not care if his call to ban all Muslims from entering the United States was “politically incorrect.” He argued that, “We Have No Choice. We Have. No. Choice.”

·         This week, after Donald Trump reiterated his plan to ban Muslims from entering the U.S., London’s newly-elected mayor Sadiq Khan rejected<http://www.politico.eu/article/london-mayor-sadiq-khan-rejects-donald-trumps-offer-to-be-exception-to-muslim-ban/> the insulting idea that he could be one of Trump’s “exceptions.” [New link too]
