Donald Trump has advocated registration for Muslim Americans--and after he denied it--doubled down on it. He called it a "matter of management"--in addition to calling for the closure of Mosques. This is as Ben Carson took to Time Magazine to say no Syrian Refugees should be brought in although he praised any Muslim Americans he has worked with unless they "denounce" violence. I made it a point of tagging Dr. Carson's Twitter Feed late last night with this that directly point and point rejected his assertions.
