Donald Trump said he would “absolutely” shut down U.S. mosques to defeat Islamic State militants, although he conceded that might not be legal.

The Republican presidential frontrunner appeared Tuesday on “Varney & Co,” and the Fox Business host asked Trump about steps Britain has taken to fight Islamic radicals in that country, reported Mediaite.

“They’ve got a whole new series of proposals to deal with this, including withdrawal of passports from some of these people who’ve gone over just to fight,” said host Stuart Varney, as Trump interrupted in agreement. “And closing some mosques — would you do the same thing in America?”

“I would do that,” Trump said. “Absolutely, I think it’s great.”

See this is how the stupids get so confused.

The stupids just told me this on another board


We were discussing Muslims and their supposed plan to kill all white people


Starting with you fool. They hate EVERYTHING about you I know, I'm undercover in the Muslim world, since my wife is one, and I've heard all about what they think of liberal ideas. Although, they do love the welfare.


Donald has managed to alienate all Latino's, all Muslims, all liberals and all adults.

Perhaps, trump should take a look at the US Constitution. I not sure; but, I thought I read where the government cannot prohibit the free exercise of religion.

I know Donald ... I know ... some really smart people told you ...
