Donald Trump insisted in an interview aired Sunday that he was not rolling back his Muslim ban, rather his new stance could be considered an expansion.
NBC News’ “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd asked Trump about a line in his speech at the Republican National Convention, in which he said that the United States should, “immediately suspend immigration from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism.”
Todd noted that it seemed like a “rollback” when compared to the “complete and total shutdown” of Muslims from entering the country, which he proposed earlier this year.
“I actually don’t think it’s a rollback. In fact, you could say it’s an expansion. I’m looking now at territory,” Trump said. “People were so upset when I used the word Muslim. Oh, you can’t use the word Muslim. Remember this. And I’m okay with that, because I’m talking territory instead of Muslim.”
Trump went on to say that he loves the nation’s constitution.
Trump/Putin '16
So he would ban immigrants from Paris, France, Brussels, Belgium, Munich Germany, London, England? Or from the whole of those 4 countries?
Or deport somehow US citizens who are already here?
