Then wrote Trump a letter.
“Donald J Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States”, Trump said last week.
The candidate’s tower on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, which doubles as both his corporate offices and the center of campaign, has recently become the sight of protests because of the remarks.
AMERICAN documentary filmmaker Michael Moore has written a letter to Donald Trump, criticising him for his view of Muslims as an “angry white guy”.
In an interview with the Daily Beast the day before his latest stunt, Moore said Trump should embrace his “female side”. “I was struck by how you, a self-described tough guy from Queens, seemed like such a fraidey-cat”.
“We are all Muslim”. But just before going on, I was pulled aside by a producer from the show who said that you were “nervous” about being on the set with me.
Minnesota’s capital city has voted to condemn Donald Trump’s anti-Muslim rhetoric, but he won’t be banned from the City of St. Paul.
To sum it up, Moore wrote, “we are all Muslim, just as we are all Mexican, we are all Catholic and Jewish and white and black and every shade in between”..
Graham, on the other hand, strongly objected to their points of view by quoting former President George W. Bush, who had defended Islam after the 9/11 attacks by saying “Leave the faith alone, go after the radicals that kill us all”. “When I tell people that I’m a Muslim, they always immediately think, she is a terrorist, she is going to bomb us”, she shares.

Although Trump is leading in the polls for the Republican Presidential nomination, his most recent comments regarding immigrants and minorities have been polarizing.

“I am reminded of what FDR’s grandfather said”.
“We’re not talking about isolation, we’re talking about security”, he said.
