Some good news on American internment camps
by digby
Trump ruled them out. But lest he appear to be soft on American Muslims he made sure everyone knew he’s going to bring the hammer down in other ways… if you know what I mean.
“Would you categorically rule out the idea of internment camps for American Muslims?” ABC News’ “This Week” host Jonathan Karl asked Trump.
“I would rule it out, but we would have to be very vigilant. We’re going to have to be very smart,” Trump said. “We’re going to have to be very rigid, very vigilant. And if we’re not very, very strong and very, very smart, we have a big, big problem coming up. We’ve already had the problem. Check out the World Trade Center, OK.”
“Check out the Pentagon,” he continued. “We’ve already had the problem.”
He has said that he wants to ban all Muslims from entering the country and will send back all refugees who are already here. But because he’s a humanitarian, he wants to build “safe zones” in the middle of the desert where all the refugees can live. Presumably they’ll be allowed to leave to go join ISIS or Assad or whomever, right? Right?
