military leaders, i was very worried that this kind of rhetoric leads to isis recruitment and plays into the hands of the enemy that says that we as a country are at war with islam, which is not true. daryl, you are a trump supporter. do you support him after these comments? and as a man of faith, where do you land on that when he talks about calling for a a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states until our representatives can figure out what s going on. first of all, i am a suppo supporter of donald trump. i make no secret of that. when i heard these words, i immediately said to myself that the word ban is a strong word. ul the reason is i believe there has to be an improvement and revision and upgrade in our
