Controversial Republican presidential hopeful has been in the news quite a lot lately for good, for bad– for ugly and he was at it again with his statement that he believes Islam hates Americans.
Donald Trump has not been a stranger to some crazy outbursts and ideas, he proposed to build a wall to keep out aliens, but this latest statement is sure to cause a stir.
Trump made the statement in an interview with Anderson Cooper when asked if he believed Islam was at war with the West
“I think Islam hates us” He said
“We have to get to the bottom of it, there is an unbelievable hatred of us — anybody.”
He added “And we can’t allow people coming into this country who have this hatred of the United States.”
The Billionaire had already risked the ire of muslims everywhere by suggesting a temporary ban on muslims citing that it was difficult to tell the good from the jihadists.
He is an unpopular character amongst many, but the thing is, he’s steadily gaining followers. We’ll see how this rumbles on as the primaries draw ever closer.
