A racist, fascist organization. Wednesday afternoon, Bloomberg Politics released the first poll about Donald Trump’s horrific proposal for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.” The topline finding is pretty shocking: 65 percent of likely Republican primary voters agreed with Trump. The poll was strikingly partisan. Only a small minority among likely Democratic primary voters supported it, resulting in only 37 percent of Americans supporting Trump’s plan in total:
Where are the statements of condemnation from Delaware’s Republicans? Charles Copeland. Greg Lavelle. Colin Bonini. Mike Castle. All silent.
There is an old Latin proverb: Qui tacet consentire videtur, ubi loqui debuit ac potuit (He who is silent, when he ought to have spoken and was able to, is taken to agree)
To escape that, Delaware’s Republicans must all not only denounce Donald Trump, they must pledge publicly that they will refuse to support and vote for Donald Trump should he be the Presidential nominee of the Republican Party. Otherwise, we must assume that all of Delaware’s Republicans agree with Donald Trump.
