I hear you. I'm suprised Trump doesn't have more support. But .. let's be fair... he won't win the election. The Orlando massacre killed Trump. So many more people feel safer with Clinton. I don't get it... but Trump can't win. Trump will not get 270 electoral votes... no way

An Imam? Seriously? f/k/a Marine Marcus Dwayne Robertson.

As Van Susteren pointed out, Taubah was just released from prison for his ties to gangs and for robbing a bank.

But she and her producers felt that he was important enough to give valuable air time to on their TV network. This speaks for itself.

Attacking the president after a terrorist mass murder, based on self-serving partisan values is simply rude, crude and unAmerican. Bush got support from everyone after 9/11, and had any partisan candidate or official implied he was in collaboration with the attackers or responsible for it, he or she would have been totally and absolutely shunned as being anti-US. Remember--"you are either with us or against us"? Trump is against us by going after the POTUS.

First of all ISIS (the real enemy) just loves it. The GOP nominee attacking the POTUS--they could not be happier with that. What ISIS does not want is a country united against them. Then his Muslim ban only further serves their purposes. Is this 'just a suggestion' this time, because it did not sound like it. Second of all, he offended the majority of the country by doing it.

His disrespectful, rash and emotional reactions are really not what one wants to see in a president. It does not project strength--it promotes weakness as all hysterical reactions do. Tweeting out debunked conspiracy theories to back up his attack on the POTUS only serves to make him look foolish.

Hillary is correct in saying that the guy does not have the temperament to be president, but even more than that, he does not have the maturity. Donald Trump is very very immature and this cannot be fixed.
Yet, he is allowed to have the national and international stage to spew his vile thoughts.

It's really not out of the realm of possibility. It's all about the swing states...

Nobody loves Trump more than me. Trust me, he might only win 5 to 10 states. The fact that the terrorists attack crushed him, means he can't win. Most people want globalization, more Syrian refugees, and feel we will be safer with Clinton.

In my opinion it's weird. But it's true. People will not elect trump.

All that can be said about this poll is that 51% of the people who answered the phone were against Trump's response. In this case that means 501. LOL

[thread fail]
Math fail.

You guys make this WAY too easy.

The mere fact that some imam thinks this is reason enough for me to cast as many votes as possible FOR Clinton!
