'I have at least 20 Muslim friends', says Donald Trump, but can't name them
The Daily Telegraph ^ | February 7, 2015 | David Lawler, New Hampshire

Posted on 02/07/2016 10:53:43 PM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

..... The Republican presidential candidate has repeatedly said that "Muslims love him" despite his provocative policies, but has so far failed to name any single individual Muslim supporter.

Asked by the Telegraph to elaborate, Mr Trump again ducked the question responding: "Oh, I could give you about 20 of them."...

Donald Trump Junior, Mr Trump's son, was also unable to tell the Telegraph who his father's Muslim friends were, saying only that they had "completed a lot of business deals" in the Middle East.

NOBODY CARES...except for the drooling sycophantic other anti-Trumpers here!

Just face it, either Trump is the nominee, or someone else is for the GOP and that person WILL lose. There isn't another candidate, on the GOP side, who can beat the Dem, no matter WHO it may be and two of them are INELIGIBLE to be president!

You've become a laughingstock here, a Johnny one note, whose reputation has been crushed by your own actions.

I know that you don't believe anything I post, but frankly, I don't give a damn!

I doubt that; she’s just an obsessive anti-Trump posted who has a visceral hatred for him and his supporters.

That movie is HOLLYWEIRD TRASH and FICTION. And no, I haven't seen it; but I've read the reviews.

Besides which, unlike most here, I know the facts and the hand that the DEMS had in this for decades.

Alinsky’s rules:

1. Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have. Power is derived from 2 main sources - money and people. Have-Nots must build power from flesh and blood.

2. Never go outside the expertise of your people. It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.

3. Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy. Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.

4. Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules. If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.

5 Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

6. A good tactic is one your people enjoy. They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.

7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. Don’t become old news.

8. Keep the pressure on. Never let up. Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.

9. The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.

10. The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.

11. If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive. Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.

12. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.

13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.

Trumps supporters don’t see what is so obvious about the man...that there is no there there.

They see it just fine. That's why they have to disrupt threads to divert attention from what he is and what he isn't.

Does this all just boil down to jealousy on your part?

Are you a OWSer?

And you don't know that all of the other candidates and pols, since this nation began, haven't LIED to the populace to get their votes?

Trump has changed his positions over the years and was far more conservative, for far longer, than you or others give him any credit for.

Reagan was a HUGE FDR supporter; Truman too!

And unlike Trump, who hasn't EVER had a say-so re abortion, Reagan made abortion LEGAL, in California, long before SOCTUS made it the law of the land!

Are you going to sit there and attempt to tell me that Reagan NEVER had any LIBERAL/LEFTY friends? JUST TRY THAT ONE! LOL

The difference is between knowing that I am being played FOR SURE by conventional politicians and MAYBE being played by Donald Trump. Now, I know you think that Ted Cruz has not been bought, and no amount of evidence to the contrary will convince you otherwise. But I’ll keep trying.

If there are any muslims who are friends with Trump I doubt they’d be happy with him naming them.

Oh that's REALLY a laugh and 1/2! LOL

Your ilk comes onto Trump Rally threads to disrupt and harass. We don't do that to them!

You post your nightly propaganda c rap and we come on them to disputes you and call you out for what you are doing. That's NOT disrupting anything, except for your late night HOURS OF HATE!

Get your scripts from BLOODY KELLY, do you?

Do you REALLY want to go to looks of a candidate and his wife? I doubt it; however, give me the say-so and you'll rue it to the day you die.

Oops, excuse me, I just got up to take a leak outside and wow do you two guys need some help with muslim names.

I did pee the name, Yusuf, in the snow and in a couple hours when I get up again I’ll see if can pee spell, Hussein. I’ll have a few more by noon and we can ask that American Trump guy if he knows any of those people by those names.

Hope this helps!
