It&#8217;s called Muslims. We know our current president is one. You know he&#8217;s not even an American, birth certificate man. But anyway, we have training camps growing where they want to kill us. That&#8217;s my question. When can we get rid of them?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This would be a perfect opportunity for Trump to exhibit some intelligence or dignity or &#8230; what the hell, we&#8217;re talking about Donald Trump here. That isn&#8217;t going to happen. This was his response:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Trump:<\/strong> We&#8217;ll be looking at a lot of different things. And, you know, a lot of people are saying that. A lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there. We&#8217;re gonna be looking at that, and plenty of other things.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So Trump is gonna be looking at how to get rid of Muslims like President Obama? Despite his recent reluctance to talk about it, he is apparently as committed as ever to his birtherism. It would have been easy to dismiss the question and repudiate the bigoted inferences of the questioner, but Trump&#8217;s prejudices are deep seated and he wasn&#8217;t about to cut any slack to either the President or the millions of Muslim-American citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s defenders might complain that he was blindsided by the question and should not be held accountable for not responding appropriately off the cuff. But that wouldn&#8217;t explain the statement provided by his campaign hours later after having plenty of time to develop a considered response.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Campaign response:<\/strong> The media wants to make this issue about Obama. The bigger issue is that Obama is waging a war against Christians. Christians need support in this country. Their religious liberty is stake.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Ferchrissakes.<\/strong> They took their time in order to compose the most nauseating, racist, idiotic, official reply they could think of? First of all, the media isn&#8217;t making this about Obama. The questioner explicitly made reference to him. The bigger issue is that Trump is now awkwardly attempting to divert attention to his delusional and wholly unsupported claim that <em>&#8220;Obama is waging a war against Christians,&#8221;<\/em> whose <em>&#8220;religious liberty is stake.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Where on Earth does he get these lunatic ravings from? Obviously he thinks that by retching up the most grotesque lies imaginable he can distract people from his boorish bigotry. That may work for the putrid collection of imbeciles who support him, but anyone with an IQ higher than Trump&#8217;s favorability among Latinos aren&#8217;t so easily fooled. And the only question left is how long will Republicans continue to prop up this jerkwad?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><strong>News Corpse Presents: The ALL NEW 2nd volume of<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00QSSMOES\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B00QSSMOES&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=newscorpsecom-20&#038;linkId=TLI6JC2OYE22MUTS\" target=\"_blank\">Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><br \/>\nAvailable now at Amazon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RCtAJNiplaw?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>[Update:] Trump Rejects &#8216;Moral Obligations&#8217;<\/strong> After ducking the issue, Trump is now responding to his flagrant bigotry in a series of tweets that illustrate his complete obliviousness:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/645217260311855104\" target=\"_blank\">Tweet 1<\/a>: <em>Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him? I don&#8217;t think so!<\/em><br \/>\nThis isn&#8217;t about defending the President. It&#8217;s about defending the truth and repudiating prejudice. Trump should have excoriating the questioner, not as a favor to Obama, but because what he said was both false and hateful. And yes, that is a moral obligation if you expect to be regarded as a leader. Note: Trump got this line from Fox &#038; Friends who spent much of the morning trying to justify Trump&#8217;s assholiness and specifically saying he had no moral obligation to respond.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/645218898632146944\" target=\"_blank\">Tweet 2<\/a>:<em> This is the first time in my life that I have caused controversy by NOT saying something.<\/em><br \/>\nThis is a vain distraction that ignores the responsibility to speak out against bigotry. <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/First_they_came_...\" target=\"_blank\">Martin Niem\u00f6ller&#8217;s famous poem<\/a> <em>&#8220;First they came for&#8230;&#8221;<\/em> is a stark reminder of what happens when you do NOT say something. You have to wonder if Trump would have said something if the questioner had said Jews instead of Muslims. Would he have been morally obligated?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/645220326960443392\" target=\"_blank\">Tweet 3<\/a>: <em>If someone made a nasty or controversial statement about me to the president, do you really think he would come to my rescue? No chance!<\/em><br \/>\nThis is projection on Trump&#8217;s part. If someone at an Obama rally said Trump was a fascist Christian and asked how to get rid of them, based on his record of tolerance, Obama would almost certainly have slapped him down.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/645225684328165376\" target=\"_blank\">Tweet 4<\/a>: <em>If I would have challenged the man, the media would have accused me of interfering with that man&#8217;s right of free speech. A no win situation!<\/em><br \/>\nWhat utter nonsense. Trump has the example set by John McCain who faced a similar situation and reacted honorably. He was universally praised for his dignified response. And therein lies the problem for Trump: He has no honor or dignity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At a rally in New Hampshire, Donald Trump demonstrated why he is better suited to running a Klan Kouncil than the U.S. He briefly addressed his audience of crackpots and then opened up the event for questions.
