Trump Supporter Calls Obama A Muslim!

Trump supporters are just as crazy as he is.

I think we've reached our peak of Donald Trump coverage. The Trump campaign got some unpleasant supporters on them. A man who was a town hall boldly called President Barack Obama a Muslim who isn't even an American.

Trump didn't correct him. Matter of fact, he let him go forth without any correction. His staff will say that the man is a plant from either the Republican or Democratic hit-squad.

Trump is a notorious birther. He and many in the racist right have questioned the president's birth certificate and ran this nonsense about him being a Muslim.

This kind of stuff here is why the peak has reached. Many think that the supporter could have torpedoed Trump's lead.

Liar, liar, you're pants on fire. Politifact denounced the supporter's claim of President Barack Obama being a Muslim.

Donald Trump declined Thursday to correct a questioner at a town hall event who incorrectly stated that President Barack Obama is Muslim and said he'd be "looking at" claims of terrorist training camps on American soil.

Trump, who has a history of making controversial remarks about immigrants and other groups, was kicking off a town hall event in Rochester, New Hampshire — his first since Wednesday evening's second Republican primary debate.

"We have a problem in this country. It's called Muslims," said the first man Trump called on to ask a question. "We know our current president is one. You know he's not even an American."

Trump, who was a driver of the "birther" movement that claimed Obama wasn't born in the U.S, first responded with feigned exasperation — "We need the question," he said, to laughs — but let the man continue.

"We have training camps growing where they want to kill us. That's my question," the questioner continued. "When can we get rid of it?"

Trump did not dispute the man's assertions and said he'd heard others raise the issue.

"We're going to be looking at a lot of different things. And you know, a lot of people are saying that, and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there," said Trump. "We're going to be looking at that and plenty of other things."

The incident evoked a moment during the 2008 campaign when Republican nominee John McCain took the microphone away from a woman who said she didn't trust Obama because he was an "Arab."

Trump's questions about the president's country of birth helped build his stature among some conservative voters and pushed Obama to release a copy of his birth certificate in 2011. But the billionaire businessman has distanced himself from the issue during his current run.

Trump's town hall, in a sweaty auditorium in Rochester, was also interrupted several times by a protester, whose outbursts were met by hostility from the friendly crowd.
