    I think the hair is a brain sucking parasite. Might explain things. Beware if similar come-overs appear in the cabinet following his election.

      His hair belongs in a cabinet. Or cupboard or closet or foot locker.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                  Did he really say the Paris terrorist attacks were the result of gun control legislation in France?

                    “Had there been some guys with a gun, there would have been a shootout and probably the primary people that would have got whacked would have been the killers," Trump said on CNBC's "Squawk Box." "You can’t any tougher than Paris, and you can’t get any tougher than France” on gun control, he continued. “They just said, come here, boom, come here, boom…shot these people at will."

                      He's now calling for the closing of certain mosques. I get the sentiment but messing with religious liberty is really bad precedent. Once the political winds shift further against Christianity, it could be churches getting closed. I could already see churches that oppose homosexuality getting shuttered three decades from now.

                        Yup, that's a tough one.... there would need to be absolute 'smoking gun' proof that there was bad stuff there.

                        Or forced underground, like thousands of house churches in China, which, quite honestly, are doing amazingly well. In a way, it might be the "shot in the arm" that Christianity needs to rebound.

                          The problem is that Muslims are more than willing to use mosques to provide cover for advancement of their cause through terror - not because they are evil per se, but because there is no such thing as separation of church and state in their mind (though I'm sure they laugh up their sleeves at the useful idiots who consider mosques to be sacrosanct).
                          Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

                            In some cases that may be true. Though the one or two mosques I remember being in existence met at a public museum in my city had an open policy and were closer to unitarian churches than anything fundamental.

                              Sure. Pretty much no religion has 100% wholly committed followers.
