The statement came up in a press conference, that mayor nutter hosed at city hall yesterday. He took donald trump to task, blasting the gop frontrunner for the president ial contest for his call to ban muslims prep erring the us, now, nutter called the press conference, to announce new reward for hate crimes following incident where a pigs head was in front after north philadelphia mosque, pressed nutter on trumps comment, nutter blasted trumps remarks.
