Trump says 'We're going to be looking at that', when questioned about 'getting rid' of Muslims

The Republican Presidential candidate also failed to correct the questioner who said Obama was Muslim.

DONALD TRUMP NODDED agreeingly and said “We’re going to be looking at that” when a supporter asked him ‘when can we get rid’ of Muslims.

It happened at a town hall event in New Hampshire yesterday.

The man was picked from the crowd to ask a question and he asserted that President Barack Obama is Muslim in his question:

We have a problem in this country, it’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one, you know he’s not even an American.

We have training camps growing where they want to kill us. That’s my question, when can we get rid of them?

Trump replied by saying: We’re going to be looking at a lot of different things and you know that a lot of people are saying that, and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there.

We’re going to be looking at that and plenty of other things.
