Sort of taking everything Donald Trump said, and doubling it.

Quote:
Paul Nehlen (R), who is running against Speaker Paul Ryan (R) in a Wisconsin primary and has been praised by Donald Trump, told a radio station that the United States should have a “discussion” about deporting all Muslims from the United States.

Said Nehlen: “The question is, why do we have Muslims in the country?”
Of course it would be kind of hard to deport people who were born here simply because of their religion, but anything to get a vote, I guess. We've existed for 240 years without a religious test, but I guess that was a mistake, right?

Seriously, just how xenophobic is the base of the GOP becoming if this guy thinks a policy idea like that will get him nominated? Before they're all deported, or "resettled" let's make them wear little crescents on their clothes. Nothing could possibly go wrong.

Brilliant.

Yeah the GOP has become the NAZI party. Just substitute Muslims and Mexican for Jews. Now wonder the KKK folks love Trump.

I wouldn't condemn the entire party, but this nut job is just one goose step away from it.

Maybe they could all be tattooed or something?

Where do these people get these ideas? Doesn't the Constitution mean anything anymore?

And where would you deport people to if they are born in the USA? This is their country!

Why not condemn the entire party? The party leadership COURTED those types of people and then fomented their racism and hatred for decades. Now they've created a monster then can no longer control. They are getting what they deserve.

What?

Deport all Muslims?

What kind of hatred-filled insanity is this person infected with?

Yes, because obviously every Muslim alive is a secret ISIS supporter.

Yep, they tolerated these people and fed them garbage for years on Fox News and talk radio about how the white man was losing his grip on power.

Now they have taken over and they are over the moon that Trump has made it fashionable to openly express their xenophobia and bigotry.

What does "religious freedom" mean to you? Would you prefer to have a state sponsored religion?
