NY mosque investor declines Trump's buyout offer

"I am making this offer as a resident of New York and citizen of the United States, not because I think the location is a spectacular one (because it is not), but because it will end a very serious, inflammatory, and highly divisive situation that is destined, in my opinion, to only get worse," the letter said.

Trump also attached a condition to his offer: He said that as part of the deal, the backers of the mosque project would need to promise that any new mosque they constructed would be at least five blocks farther away from the World Trade Center site.

3. Mock and laugh at his wig. Doesn['t matter what situation I would find myself with

Trunp in, that's what I'd do.

4. The entire deal is still very shaky and may well go away for legitimate reasons

He does not own all the land required. There have been reports that he intends to sell it to the mosque (not donate). Under those circumstances, take the offer, not what is in the case

6. Trump is SUCH a schmuck!

Another person who should pay close attention to Abraham Lincoln:
"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."

7. Fuck Trump....

There should be no compromise of Constitutional rights.

[Hawkeye-X]

8. Have him give up his entire wealth to me.

And let him live on the streets begging for a cup of joe.

And he can keep his bankruptcy issues.
