Thursday at the CNN debate Donald Trump was asked about his provocative comments on Islam.
Jake Tapper: Mr. Trump, let me start with you. Last night you told CNN, quote, “Islam hates us.” Did you mean all 1.6 billion Muslims?
Donald Trump: I mean a lot of them. I mean a lot of them.
Jake Tapper: Do you want to clarify the comment at all?
Donald Trump: Well, I’ve been watching the debate today and we’re talking about radical Islamic terrorism or radical Islam. But I will tell you, there’s something going on that maybe you don’t know about, or maybe a lot of other people don’t know about but there’s tremendous hatred and I will stick with exactly what I said to Anderson Cooper.
