There are thousands of American Muslims who have contributed to the success of America, it’s a shame that because of the recent terrorist attacks in the last two decades that a religion, race(Mexican, and who knows what else President Trump thinks is a threat to the United States. Sure he is probably appealing to many Americans, as Hitler did with the Jews, however our country was not built to hate a group of people because of their religion.
I just hope President Trump does not need a colonoscopy, given by a Muslim Gastroenterologist, shit will be hitting the fan for sure.
