I'm pretty sure the US Supreme Court would, though. Wow.

The only thing he didn't mention (because it is assumed and does not have to explicitly stated) are internment camps to host American Muslims, modeled after the Japanese American internment camps of the 40s or the Treaty of New Echota (1835) that led to the Trail of Tears.

As for warrantless searches ----- that just happens to go with the territory of internment camps for citizens.

As for the issuance of special id cards for Muslims, that left me scratching my head until I realized that Trump was taking a leaf out of Hitler's books and referring to obvious and public identification, like the Star of David that the Nazis forced the Jews to wear to enable instant identification.

Under President Trump, all Muslims can wear green crescents on their vests. This would be over and above the obvious beards and the burquas, of course.

Sounds like a plan. Go Republican. Go like a pro, unvarnished, a**hole.

Is Trump going to pull off that ridiculous orange latex mask at some point, and beneath it, it was Borat, all the time?

I mean, the Borat character was based on saying horrible things out loud, so people let their guard down and say even more outrageous things...

Wasn't Mr. Trump also behind the movement to force AIDS patients to either wear an identifying mark or be put in isolation camps?

It was back in the 1980's, and I can't find any reference to it.

Trump, if elected President, will turn the US into the next 1940s Germany and will make sure that all Americans feel paranoid about Muslims in America. He's just your typical, anti-Everything-that-makes-America-America, a**hole.

couldn't have said it better, sweetleaf. several doctors are now saying that trump has narcissistic personality disorder. not exactly the type of person who cares about the effects of his actions on others, making him a horrible choice as a leader.

I'll take journalistic sensationalism for zero cents, thanks.

(Goddamn people are so easy to mislead, especially when you tell them things they want to hear.)

they've been pushing for a national biometric ID for years...

we are all going to be tracked in the future, saying we need it for Muslims is just the camel's nose

Isn't this all some weird perverted kind of joke?

We complain about corporate control of candidates, and here we are seriously discussing one of the most disgusting examples of corporate piggishness ever, as a possible candidate for our President of the United States???? Really????

Americans watch too much TV. They think life is a soap opera.

If Trump were to become President, and started to make Muslim Americans carry ID cards - or worse, put them in camps - I'm sorry to say he would accomplish all this to the cheers of the roaring multitudes that had elected him. Trump is only the face and voice of the millions of bigots in this country.

Yeah, and there'd be a ton of people cheering if it was done exclusively to white [conservative] men.

White men, the bastards, deserve the worse.
Just ask any liberal.

Whether he is or not, he is certainly giving a collective voice to an ugly bigotry that had been largely hiding from the light of polite society till he said it was safe to be expressed.
