~sigh~  Mr. Steele, this is grossly unfair to Mr. Trump.  What really happened is that a media guy asked him a trolling question and he responded with evasions as any reasonably smart politician would given the uncertainty regarding how this issue is going to play out.  But don't take that from me.  Even the liberal Kevin Drum recognizes this at Mother Jones of all places:

Seriously, Mr. Trump says a lot of wacky stuff, but he has not in fact advocated a database registering muslims.  [/quote]

What? You are painting Trump out to be worse that Sarah Palin: "oh, that darn liberal media asking her what magazines she reads. How mean and nasty". If someone asks you if you want to set up a database of Muslims, you say, "no". It's not that hard. If you misspeak, you issue a clarification. Beyond answering the reporters question about whether he would support such a database, Trump went further and said his administration would absolutely implement such a thing.

I'm hardly saying that; Mr. Trump can certainly handle the media without my help. I had not seen Mr. Trump say that a Trump Administration "would absolutely implement such a thing."  If you provide some citation for that rather surprising proposition, I shall recant forthwith.   Otherwise, I think there is little to see here.  [/quote]
