Donald Trump Responds to Debate Question About Islamophobia by Saying Muslims Need to Report Terrorists
Donald Trump at the second presidential debate said that his Muslim ban is now called "extreme vetting."
During the second presidential debate, Donald Trump was asked if he still believes the U.S. needs the "Muslim ban" he proposed back in 2015, and he responded by saying that his preferred policy is now called "extreme vetting."
"The Muslim ban is something that in some form has morphed into a extreme vetting," Trump said. "People are coming into our country like we have no idea who they are. Where they are from. What their feeling about our country is and she wants 550 percent more. This is going to be the great Trojan horse of all time. I believe in building safe zones ... We know nothing about their values and we know nothing about their love for our country."
On the topic of Muslim-Americans, one audience member asked Trump, "How will you help people like me deal with the consequences of being a threat to the country after the election is over?"
Trump responded by saying they were "right about Islamaphobia and that's a shame," but focused on the need for Muslims to "report when they see something going on."
