Branding Muslims as savages who can't be trusted, who we don't want in this country, doesn't help with the homegrown terrorism problem we have in the US and abroad. Frankly, I don't think what I'm saying is very controversial. If you brand any religion, social group, sex, whoever, with an evil connotation there will be poor results. If you tell someone enough times they aren't welcome and you demonize them, well, you know how that goes.
He can't alleviate it of course, and ISIS would still create propaganda no matter who it was. They can just make stuff up.
But, when it's the presidents own words and actions, that they don't have to manipulate, that has an impact.
Again, not helping.
We can agree to disagree, just sharing my position.
