“When leading presidential candidates compare Syrian refugees to “rabid dogs”, or call for the creation of a database of Muslims, or recommend a ban on all Muslims entering the United States, they are playing to our basest instincts”, the ADL said. Trump’s been as outspoken on in that subject as he’s on most others, & his position on refugees largely mirrors his robust position on Mexican immigrants.
Asked how he planned to implement this, he replied: “Good management procedures”. “Doesn’t mean that you hate all dogs by any stretch of the imagination”, he said.
“Hopefully, we already have a database on every citizen who is already here”. “Nobody wants to say this and nobody wants to shut down religious institutions or anything, but you understand this…We’re gonna have no choice…There’s absolutely no choice”. “It’s manipulating people’s angst and their fears”.
Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump sought to walk back his support for a database of Muslims living in the us after receiving criticism from religious groups as well as his fellow candidates.
The businessman has been aggressive in his stance that the US needs to be vigilant in the wake of last Friday’s Paris terrorist attacks – which the Islamic State, or ISIS, claimed credit for launching.
Hillary Clinton, the Democrat front-runner, said his words were “shocking rhetoric”.
“This is an outrageous and bigoted statement”, Sanders said in a statement.
But Trump went beyond knocking Clinton for the language she uses in discussing the threat of terrorism, suggesting she lacks the “strength or the stamina” to lead the country.
Asked where they would be registered, the Republican politician said Muslims would be signed up at “different places …”
“There’s a growing consensus that someone has to do something to stop Donald Trump”, said Matt David, a spokesman for the group, who said the campaign would include television, radio, mail and digital ads in New Hampshire.
Kasich, the OH governor, said requiring people to register with the federal government due to their religion “strikes against all that we have believed in our nation’s history”.
Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson has also spoken out against the acceptance of Syrian refugees, saying in a statement on Monday that “there is now no ability to vet these people”. Certainly, our president is not a leader.
The unified pushback against Trump was rare.
Donald Trump insists he didn’t call for a national database of U.S. Muslims – but he didn’t dismiss the idea, either, despite widespread condemnation of his remarks from both parties and even a few of his supporters.
