Questioner (wearing Trump T-shirt) to Donald Trump last night in New Hampshire: “We have a problem in this country. It’s called Muslims. You know our current president is one. You know he’s not even an American.”
Trump (chuckling): “We need this question. This is the first question.”
Questioner, continuing: “Anyway, we have training camps growing where they want to kill us. That’s my question: When can we get rid of them?”
Trump: “You know, a lot of people are saying that and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening. We’re going to be looking at that and many other things.”
That was the response of the Republican Party’s current leading candidate for President of the United States. Trump should be ashamed. So should the Republican Party. So should any of us who allow ignorant and bigoted people to spout their hatred without confronting them with the truth.
