Trump Can't Find a Mosque to Visit
Donald Trump would like to prove that he doesn't actually hate Muslims, and his team feels the best way for him to do so would be to visit a mosque for a photo op. Just one fly in the ointment: No mosque, so far, will have him.
The problem, of course, is that Muslims are not stupid. They are aware that Trump has, just maybe, dabbled in a touch of Islamophobia during the campaign. As Nihad Awad, the national executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, explained: "Trump has proven himself to be a bigot. He is not ignorant—he is using ignorance to create fear and bigotry towards Muslims." That seems fairly unequivocal, so Trump & Co. might want to stop barking up this particular tree. (Z)”
“…….As one Muslim cleric said, ““As you can see, I’m not very excited” about a meeting between the American Muslim community and Trump, said Awad, the head of CAIR. “Trump has proven himself to be a bigot. He is not ignorant—he is using ignorance to create fear and bigotry towards Muslims.”

No photo-ops for “Sniffles” in a mosque to prove he doesn’t hate Muslims…..he just does not want them in our country…………
Trump may see all Muslim’s as a security threat……….but ya cannot also think they are stupid
