1. Sen. Lindsey Graham, one of Donald Trump’s most outspoken Republican critics, agrees with the president when it comes to fearing Muslims, according to Salon.
“The one thing I like about President Trump is that he understands we are fighting a religious war,” the South Carolina lawmaker said Tuesday evening (October 31, 2017) on Fox News. “We are fighting people who are compelled by their religious views to kill us all. They kill fellow Muslims who don’t agree with their view of Islam. They kill Christians and vegetarians, libertarians, you name it. We are in a war.”....
2. At a rally in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina on Monday evening (December 7, 2015), Trump pointed to the statement he released earlier in the day.
“Should I read you the statement?” he asked.
The crowd enthusiastically agreed that he should.
“Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on,” he said, adding the word “hell" for emphasis this time.
Supporters erupted in applause.
3. The remarks by two top US Islamophobes -- Donald Trump and Lindsey Graham -- and the crowd's enthusiastic applause at Trump's rally on hearing his Muslim ban show that Islamophobia is rife among America's white majority particularly in the political arena.
