Rising floodwaters. Heavy flooding is causing havoc in the midwest. And more rain is in the forecast. And we begin with a backlash sense Donald Trumps call to block muslims from entering the United States. His proposal has triggered worldwide condemnation, and normally this kind of thing would signal the end of a campaign, but this evening, hes the Top Republican by a wide margin. And he remains defiant. Trump used a World War Ii Aircraft carrier, now a Floating Museum in South Carolina to cheer. But condemned almost everyone else to death. Donald j. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the United States until our countrys representatives can figure out what the hell is going on. We have no choice, he told the cheering crowd three times last night. And trump was up early for morning tv to double down. I hope that we can figure it out. But we have to look at people, and we have to use vigilance, or well have many more world trade centers, and the country will never be the same, well have many many more, and as soon as youre sitting there, our country will never be the same. And you just said it, until our countrys representatives can figure out what is going on. We have no choice but to do this. Reporter condemnation was swift. And the white house, with barely disguised derision, said that trump isnt fit for the presidency. The very first thing that he or she does is swear an oath to uphold the constitution of the United States, and what trump did disqualifies him from serving as president. Reporter rival contender, lindsey graham, set the tone. Hes a racist big on the and you know how you make America Great . Tell donald trump to go to hell. Paul ryan said that this is not conservatism. What was proposed yesterday is not what this party stands for, and more importantly, its not what this country stands for. Still he stopped short saying that he wouldnt support trump if he wins the republican nomination. Harry reid pushed back from the floor of the chamber. Donald trump is stand on hate, hate that the Republican Party has built for him. In june, threw their weight behind jeb bush and angled for trump to step off of the republican stable. I rise today to call on donald trump to withdraw his candidacy for the white house. Reporter at the Republican Party headquarters in dc, its not known how this will affect the hopefuls, in iowa, less than two months away. Issuing a statement condemning trumps remarks. We need to aggressively take on radical islamic terrorism, but not at the expense of our american values. One supporting trumps stance, senator ted cruz, arriving at the white house, refusing to add his voice to the stem of criticism. I commend donald trump for standing up and focusing americas attention on the need to secure our borders. Tony, the mex debate where this will surely dominate now, is slated for tuesday, and trump is plag a trip to jordan. He says that he will visit the prominently muslim nation at the end of the month after a previously planned trip to israel. Its unclear if King Abdullah is going to meet with trump. How can you make the country less safe, Jamie Mcintyre has mer on why the candidates comments will have a negative affect on the fight against isil. Reporter well, tony, the Obama Administration said that if donald trump was trying to hand a propaganda victory to isil, he could have hardly done better last night when he called for a ban on muslims entering the u. S. They can never, ever, ever come back, its over. Reporter at the white house, Donald Trumps antimuslim rhetoric was portrayed at tantamount to aiding and abetting the enemy. And a spokesman said that it will make it harder to recruit muslim allies on the ground in iraq and syria. Anything that creates tensions and creates the notion that the United States is at odds with the muslim faith and islam would be counter be productive to our efforts right now. And totally contrary to our values. Reporter in iran, trumps call for a total and complete ban on muslims entering the United States has this baghdad shop keeper shaking his head reporterhead. I think that the remarks are wrong, and it will cause a rift between muslims and christians there. They have no respect for human life. Reporter from all sides, president obama said last month that the talk of imposing a religious test on refugees entering the u. S. I can not think of a more potent recruitment tool for isil. Isil than some of the rhetoric that has been coming out of here during the course of this debate. Reporter muslim groups are outraged. He and others are playing into the hands of isis. This is exactly what isis wants from americans. To turn them against each other. And for that, donald trump and other candidates who are targeting american muslims are doing a Great Service to isis. One that well all find as a common enemy. Reporter Homeland Security, jake johnson, who was appearing with a local iman as trump was appearing in South Carolina, he said that trumps vil fix of muslims is all the more damaging because its from a frontrunner. When a leading candidate for Office Proposes something thats irresponsible and probably illegal, and it will actually hurt our efforts at Homeland Security and National Security, we have to speak out. Theres also another deny amicdynamicat play, it would fua text, after an apocalyptic battle coming to the region. Donald trumps demonization of muslims feeds into that. We know where the president stands on this, in iraq and isil there, and possibly syria, but im wondering if there are other voices inside of the pentagon offering a different bit of advice to the president , and suggesting that thats the way to go, to commit large numbers of ground forces. Given the debate that goes on in congress, and by the way, the secretary will be up on the hill tomorrow to talk about this type of thing. You would think that there would be a division, but when the president says that hes taking the best military mind, he is, theres a consensus among military leaders that any large number of Ground Troops on the ground would be counterproductive. And thats one of the lesson thats we learned from iraq and syria. And a lot of the special forces going into syria, are they going to go there to fight isil . But theyre just going to the groups fighting on the ground and the u. S. , which ones should they give weapons to . So thats a very special mission for those troops going into syria. And secretary of defense will be there storm . Eye. Yes. Jamie mcintyre, thank you, and still ahead on the program, what Muslim Americans are saying about Donald Trumps plan to ban all muslims from entering the United States. Thats at the bottom of the house. House democrats are looking at everyone coming to the United States without a visa. They voted to tighten the rules around want visa waiver program. And Mike Viqueira joins us now, and this seems to have been spurred on by the paris attacks. Youre absolutely right, tony. Its something that congress very seldom does, act in unit with urgency. 38 countries, most of them friendly countries to the United States, and most of them after fluent degrees from around want world. If you live in those countries and you hold a passport from the nations, you dont have to go through the extra scrutiny of a visa to get into this country. What the house and the senate are expected to vote on, if you have passports from those countries, and yet, youve been to one of four countries over the past five years, since the start of the Syrian Civil War and the rise of isil. Syria, sudan, iraq and iran, you have to go through the scrutiny of getting a visa. The responseerbs from the house, Candace Miller from michigan, was on the house earlier today talking about her bill. We simply can not give people from other countries special access to our country if we dont have all of the information that we absolutely need to ensure that theyre not a threat to our for National Security. Reporter about 20 million of europeans and others take advantage that have. They have hinted that the United States would cost them billions of dollars in tourist money, and its mostly tourists and Business People who use the vis. And it requires bio metric data on the passion ports from the people of these countries, and it requires them more to share information about their own terror watch list, something that has been a soar point since paris, to share that with the United States. Still ahead, policing chicagos police. The whistle blower who says that an independent panel is not so independent. And race on campus. The affirmative action debate set to go before the Supreme Court once again. Sure, tv has evolved over the years. Its gotten squarer. Brighter. Bigger. Its gotten thinner. Even curvier. But whats next . For all binge watchers. Movie geeks. Sports freaks. X1 from xfinity will change the way you experience tv. Chicagos mayor is calling out the citys Police Department for what he describes as unacceptable behavior in another case. Of a man who died after being held in their custody. This is newly released video captured in a jail cell nearly three years ago. Can you see the officers approaching the prisoner, phillip coleman, and they tase him with three electric shocks, and then they drag him in handcuffs. The police took him to the hospital. But they say there was a struggle there, so they tased him again. Coleman died hours later at the hospital. And his death followed a reaction to an antipsychotic drug. And his family said that his death was not accidental. Mayor rohm ema emannual said tht something is wrong here. Either from the department or those they work for. And now an independent authority, he says that he was fired from the police over voicing concerns that its corrupt. Andy is live in chicago. And more on this, andy. Tony, of the more than 400 Police Involved shootings that they investigated, only two resulted in the recommendation that an officer be fired. And for that, Lorenzo Davis thinks that the department itself should be investigated. When Lorenzo Davis joined chicagos independent Police Review authority, the work, it seemed was pretty straight forward. We would go to the scene of the shooting, and we began to investigate. We would get a walkthrough by the officer in charge. Later came the interviews with the officers. He claims that they were independent until january of 2014, when scott endo took over as chief administrator. He and others had backgrounds in the Drug Enforcement agency. When they came n. There was a distinct byas toward Police Officers, and it became not independent at all. It was like an arm of the chicago Police Department. Reporter and davis says on about half a dozen Police Involved shootings, he felt that the officers did use excessive force. I was told to change the finds of my cases, and i refused. I steadfastly refused. Reporter in july, davis was firstdegree from his 92,000 a year job and he said that he was told that it was because of a marginal performance rating. Davis didnt buy it, and hes suing the agency and the city. In 2007, the fallout from this video showing an offduty cop beating a bartender. It cost them their jobs. And he criticized a code of silence. The operative code of silence was heavily criticized for its handling of the case, so it was replaced by ipra. And the family said that inra never interviewed the officer who did that shooting, and on friday night, scottando abruptly resigned. I promise you that i bring no agenda, other than the pursuit integrity and transparency. This is what our chicago citizens demand. Reporter he agrees with the firstdegree murder charge against officer van be dike in the shooting of laquan mcdonald, but he also thinks that there was a coverup, and he disagrees to not charge the officer who shot donald johnson, which was announced on monday. He said that theres no rule that says a Police Officer cant shoot an armed suspect in the back as hes running away if he feels that the suspect is an imminent threat. But if its not absolutely necessary to kill a person, why would you . They couldnt talk about this at all with us because of pending litigation. So andy, anything from the department of justice coming in to investigate the entire chicago Police Department . Reporter davis thinks that its great. He was a cop for 23 years before he joined ipra, and he hopes that it will be similar to missouri when they came in there, but hes worried that the changes will take years in chicago. Thank you. The Supreme Court heard a texas case today that could change the way that voting districts are created. Right now, theyre formed by population, and the case before the high court however argues that districts should be based on eligible voters only and not the entire population. Aljazeeras lisa stark has the story. Reporter texas, like most other states, sets up its legislative districts based on population, so this senate distinction home to many immigrants has the same population, but only half of the registered voters as the wealthier whiter Community Next door. Those bringing the case before the Supreme Court argued that thats unfair. With more voters crammed into the after fluent district, their votes dont count as much. And they should be drawn up on the number of eligible voters. The attorney said that the only way to make sense of the one personone vote rule is to make is about eligible voters. Theyre the ones who have standing and can bring a claim. Theyre the ones who are injured. Chief justice, john roberts seemed to agree. , but Justice Sonya Sotomayor said that its not just about protecting legislation, but protecting citizens, or noncitizens, the people who live there. And Justice Steven briar said outside the attorney general said that the states current system, based on population count, is not unfair. Texas did not engage in discrimination. What it did was provide fair representation based on the number of citizens in each touch district. If they win, it will shift power from it cities to more rural areas, where voters tend to be older, whiter and more republican, and the hispanic caucus said that that would reduce the influence of the growing latino community. This would say to millions of americans that you have no place in american democracy, that your violence doesnt count at all. Reporter beyond the political considerations, there are practically ones. It states can easily set up legislative districts of based on pop layings, but many argue that there are no good numbers just on eligible voters, and it would be less than possible to draw up legislative districts without that good data. And the judges, were told, would have to redraw. Also the force behind a new case that could determine affirmative action in college missing its tomorrow. A white student denied from entering the university of texas because of her race. From the ivy league to the hart land, and now in front of the u. S. Supreme court, a key debate over college diversity. Whether they can, like the university of texas, can consider race as one of the many be factors in putting together the incoming class. The case was brought by Abigail Fisher in 2008. She claims that the admissions policy cost her a spot and violated her constitutional right to equal treatment. I was taught since i was a little girl that any kind of discrimination was wrong, and for an institution of Higher Learning to act this way makes no sense to me. Theyre in the top 10 or so of their class. Its not just any university. Fisher fell just below that bar. Some 25 of admissions are set aside for holistic reviews. Where everything from talents to family circumstances are considered alongside of academics. One of those criteria is race. There are no quotas or targets, so its not the affirmative action that a lot of people think about. Its a more holistic approach to admission so that you get the community that youre trying to serve. The ut government calls it a central part of Higher Learning reporter its to say that people come from all different backgrounds, but as a university, its important to have people from across the spectrum, so you can have a better world. The case went to the Supreme Court in 2013 after the court ruled against fisher, but the high court didnt settle the issue. Instead, sending it back for a second look. That court then ruled against fisher, who again has asked the Supreme Court to step in. Should you treat people differently because of their race . Reporter lino has taught at the law school for five decades, and he says anything considering race is unconstitutional and counterproductive. You say that they have different experiences, so what . Do you really think that admitting a few blacks with lower scores, than the whites with higher scores is educationally beneficial for anyone . I dont know personally how anyone could think that. Reporter voices on the other side of the argument are no less passionate. If youre looking at a historically segregated university. Reporter the civil rights project, in favor of affirmative action to level the field. We have to acknowledge that the way that we structure the educational system has this baggage, and just to focus on that one moment, of walking in the door of the college, isnt true to the history that comes before that. Reporter round two of arguments on fish versus u. T. Is scheduled for wednesday. Up next, the Muslim Community on donald trump. What muslims are saying about the candidates latest statements. So the out rain over president ial candidate, donalds proposal to bar muslims from entering america, in an interview, he was asked if he regretted his remarks. Not at all. We have to do the right thing. Somebody in this country has to say whats right. I have Great Respect and love, and i have people that i have tremendous relationships with in muslim, and barbara, they agree with they 100 . Its shortterm. And let our country get its act together. Also, trump denied that he was hewas a bigot. The white house said that his stance should disqualify him from serving as president. People in the Muslim Community are shocked in the wake of trumps comments, and joining me now from detroit, inez. Reporter tony, southeast michigan is home to some 300,000 muslims, and many of them have been following the comments made by donald trump. We spoke to some of them today about their reaction to trumps latest statements. Mohamed saker said that he doesnt have to leave his fathers middle eastern bakery in it dearborn, michigan to feel like hes under scrutiny as a muslim. Everybody is going to be scared of us now, because of what two people did or what trump is saying. Reporter in the nations largest Muslim Community, Donald Trumps call to block muslims from entering the United States was swift. With many alarmed at the new tone in his campaign. Scary, because if he does get elected, its going to affect us all. Reporter trumps comments are a stark departure from the ideals that many here stand for. Rashid works closely with the Arab Community in detroit. When you Start Talking about a database of americans that are muslim. And you talk about targeting someone solely based on their faith, you are making them less equal to you. Talib and others say that trump is playing into fears that muslims will carry out more attacks on americans, and he says that that fear is unfair, and mass killings by muslims pale in comparison to nonmuslims. So white actors, whether its in sandy hook, or colorado springs, and many things happening in movie theaters and malls and Shopping Centers testify to the fact that theres a major problem in the United States when it comes to mass killings. The fact that muslims have committed some of those acts is not something that should be avoided or dismissed, but one has to look at the percentages and see what the broader issues are facing the country. Reporter communities like these have seen a rise in threats and crimes against muslims since the attacks in San Bernardino and paris. My family, my mother and my sister. Reporter saker doesnt see it getting any better any time soon. Its going downhill. What will you do . Just keep doing what im doing. We cant live scared for the rest of our lives. Reporter and trumps latest comments could be another setback for efforts in bringing Syrian Refugees into this area. Michigans governor in the past has been very supportive of bringing in refugees, but he put those plans on hold until after the paris attacks, and some are afraid that trumps comments may be tapping into those stalled plans. Rashid is a professor of religion at hofstra university. And good to have you on the program. Let me talk about a couple of issues with you. As you look at paris, and look at San Bernardino, the most recent incidents of violence, right . Extremist violence, share with me the conversations that youre having at your university and with people, people that you like and trust, and family members and friends. Thanks for having me on, tony, and i think that its a great question. There are so many voice thats were not hearing as trump drowns out the voices of the people that hes hurting. I have so many people coming to me saying, we dont feel safe to pray and taking courses and congregating with other muslims. So were in an environment that people are fearful. And the things that they love about america, and the freedoms of speech and assembly being denied to them, every time trump opens his mouth, hes slowly chipping away at america. So in essence, what is he selling here . Whats he putting forward here . And whats the effect of the kind of language that hes using . Im trying to understand trump myself. It feels like the producers, and springtime for hitler, where he doesnt know that the joke has gone on too long, and the harry potter series, he takes a tragedy, and eglomise onto it. And he is inciting people to act out. You absolutely believe that . Absolutely. When he went after mexicans and talked about them as rapists and murderers, people started beating on latinos. And when he talks about this, we see increased attacks, and mosques being burned and vandalized. Im wondering if its in the same way that africans, the idea of. We look at black lives matter. And what its all b. At its core, americas first other are blacks in this country, and they have always been the ooh and lets deal with this. The native americans would say, look, were the first. The native americans have first claim. But when we think about who the american other is, we dont recognize the humanity on the backs of the people who literally built this country, so muslims are into that mold. And its not to the extent where africanamericans treated and we dont see the same structure, but once we see the issues that black lives matter are attempting to address, we can see with asians and muslims. This comes into the context of a president ial campaign, and it makes me think of the age of obama and everything that we have seen. And i wonder if you thought about that, and if theres a context there, and in terms of what were seeing and whats coming to the surface and bubbling up in the age of obama. Absolutely. Eight years ago when obama was running for president , i started writing, people are calling him a muslim because they cant say the n word. Its a shift. And its the same racist rhetoric. The fact that he has been successful and done things on National Security that the Republican Party wish thats they could do, and he has come forward and really struggled to bring us out of a recession, and he has done everything pitch perfect, aside there torture at guantanamo, and drone strikes. Drone strikes. Im not saying that hes perfect, but domestically, he has done a lot of things that the Republican Party wishes that it would have done. But hes a man who is half white, and they still call him a black man. And he calls himself a black man. But whats available to you, why young muslim men are being drawn to this isil ideology . Its not just young muslim men. Its young men across the country being drawn to various extreme ideologies. We see this in the planned planned attacks, and dylann roof. And consistent. We are focusing on muslims now because theyre the enemy, but the San Bernardino attacks, there were 350 attacks that preceded it alone. This is a dissolution. Thats happening across the generational spectrum. And what we really need to do is go back to the offering of hope and positivity and unity, and not just spit on the ideas of america. Hofstra university, pleasure to have you on the program. Thank you. Donald trumps remarks about muslims, while controversy, may underscore his political instincts, because what trump has been tapping into, fear, has long been a potent in american politics. David schuster has that story for us. Reporter in the wake of the isil inspired rampage in San Bernardino, and the republican concerns that more attacks are coming, president obama sunday night urged americans to not overbe react. We have to not forget that it freedom is more powerful than fear. Reporter but soon the ideas about violence can be difficult. And 24 hours later, donald trump went the other way. We can be politically correct or be stupid. And its going to get worse and worse. Reporter as dramatic as trumps rhetoric about muslims may be, in this case, the exploitation of fear is growing. I want the surveillance of certain mosques if thats okay. I want surveillance. And you know what . We have had it before, and well have it again. I would not advocate that we put a muslim in charge of this nation. I absolutely would not agree with that. Reporter some political analysts point out that in the contest, the sentiment would be be beneficial. I think particularly in states like iowa, and South Carolina, where you have a lot of white evangelical christians, i think that a lot of the voters are likely to be among the voters who are most suspicious of islam, not just islamic terrorists, but you know, the religion as a whole. Reporter after 9 11, the Bush Administration said that by potentially, attacks on the u. S. Homeland by weapons of mass destruction. We dont want the smoking gun to be a cloud. We cant wait for the final proof of the smoking gun that can come in the form of a mushroom cloud. Democrat, hilliary clinton, seemed to stoke false claims about Barack Obamas faith. You dont believe that hes muslim . No, theres nothing to base that on as far as i know. And clinton tried to ratchet it up, the public fears obamas lack of experience, most famously in this television ad. 3 a. M. , your children are safe and asleep. But theres a phone in the white house, and something is happening in the world. Your vote will decide who answers that call. The danger for donald trump in this campaign is that fear can go both ways. He now faces a republican establishment thats increasingly arguing that americans have reason to fear him. Several political strategists told us today that donald trump this time has gone too far. But the sentiments are hard to measure, and as you know, tony, trump has emerged stronger than ever. Well ask you about that in a few days, but there were reports earlier that donald trump was going to head to jordan and now theres a development there. He announced that he was supposed to go to israel in december, and there was indication that he would tack on jordan and now theyre pulling back on jordan. The fbi is investigating the incident in which a severed pigs head was thrown at a mosque. It was to bed from a red pickup truck sunday night. And philadelphias mayerelect is calling it anen act of bigotry. Pigs have been used top taunt muslims in the past. And john kerry met with ban kimoon today to discuss the problems in syria. They will gather in new york later this month to revisit the peace process. We talked about syria, and the need for the u. N. Negotiations to be able to work for a ceasefire, and if we could use that. Well, the ceasefire depends on talks that are underway in saudi arabia. Groups have gathered there ahead of the potential meeting with bashar alassads government. And this is the first time that the groups have come together since the violence broke out in 2011, but one being faction was lest off the list. Its called the democratic union, and it has a ministry which goes by the ypg. Thats the military wing of the democratic union. That group is fighting isil within the city, in northern syria, they were not invited for two reasons. A, in turkey, the National Coalition based here, designated that party as a terrorist group with links to the kurdistan be workers, for the last 30 years. The Syrian Opposition force designated or accused that group of carrying out atrocities and ethnic cleansing in areas that they liberated from isil. Thats the background for not inviting them. But the fact that they are a force on the ground, fighting isil, they are backed by the United States, and the americans gave them weapons, and they already are ruling large parts of northern syria, they are quite significant, and its a big deal, i think, and it could cause future problems for the city in opposition, and also for the regional countries as well. Still ahead, soaring sales in california are driving americans to buy guns, and a string of storms battering the pacific northwest. When they will see a break from all of this rain. Analysts say that the attacks in paris and San Bernardino are pushing more americans to buy guns, and americans flocked to gun stores this week. John henne smith with more. Reporter gun shops say that they are unable to keep up with the demand. We have sold out of just when every 9millimeter pistol that we sell. Reporter background be checks are up 8 from a year ago. People on the fence that maybe want to buy a gun, putting off the purchase, a significant portion are saying, you know what . Now is the time. Reporter and major gun maker stock prices are soaring. The situation in california has really alerted a lot of people. Reporter Industry Analysts say that the shooting massacre in San Bernardino is driving more people to buy guns. The latest wave of gun sales is ramping up with a mass shooting. When theres a headline about a mass shooting. Im doing it for me. I got my wife one. Reporter but personal protection may not be the only reason for gun sales. The political area, the aspect of whats going on socially is whats driving t. We also need to make it harder for people to buy powerful assault weapons. Reporter calls from officials like president obama to tighten gun restricts stoke fears in gun rights advocates. Criminals are not going to necessarily go through legal means for illegal things. Reporter but gun control advocates say that the worries are overblown. What were talking about is simple. We want to prevent criminals and domestic abusers from owning guns. Reporter still for many who crowd gun shops these days, protection against any possible attacks. They could do something with it. So in the northwest, oregon and washington state, those areas are being hammered by rain and flooding. Triggering mud and rock slides, and massive sinkholes from opened up. And portlands sewer systems, and trains have been shut down. Many areas are completely underwater, and neighborhoods have been forced to evacuate to drier land. Kevin, where is this headed . Were going to see more through the entire weekend, more heavy rain, and you can see all of rain pouring intoer parts of washington as well as oregon. I want to show you more video coming out of this area. Theyre on the second part of heavy rain in portland. And today has been a second day as the rain has pushed through.

We have winter warnings here of avalanches, and to the east, storms coming up there. But waves of rain coming into the pacific, heres one out here in the pacific, and then theres another one out here toward the middle of the pacific, and theyre just roll missing, and thats what were going to be seeing, no change in the waves coming through, bringing that very heavy rain across the region. So heres wednesday. You see the rain all the way toward northern california. And thursday, it sinks down a little bit more toward the south. Were expecting anywhere between 68 inches of rain across this region, and then as we go to friday, the snow really expands in the sierras. 2030 inches of snow. All right, kevin, appreciate it. Thank you. Boston college now says that 80 students got sick eating at chipotle over the weekend. And the restaurant is temporarily closed.

The Climate Change it negotiations still remain front and center in paris, but City Residents are still trying to recover after the deadly attacks. Popup art installations are offering hope at the french capital. And nick clarke has that story for us. Across paris, art installations have sprung up, from those representing rising seas to the melting ice caps, outside of the pantheon. He its still the focus of the international media, and here are the new york times. The Climate Change, the installation on the banks of the sam river. This whale represents the living being of the animal, everything thats giant. But at the same, it represents the fragility of the world. Reporter of course these were commission boulevard the paris attacks on the 15th of november, and theyre raw in that. So for many, the Climate Conference is little more than a diversion. It would be a positive thing, and today lift peoples spirits somewhat. But its not what is on peoples minds right now. Reporter but others hope that the conference is the point at which the world turns the corner for a cleaner and safer future for people. Just because of what happened, people will striver harder to reach an agreement. Because we need more unity around the world. More solutions and ideas to shape the planets future. G we begin with Donald Trumps call to ban muslims entering the u. S. He is not backing down despite widespread condemnation. John terrett is here with the latest. Donald trump used a World War Ii Air force carrier now a Floating Museum to make remarks cheered on the night, but condemned almost everywhere else today. Donald trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the United States. Until our countrys representatives can figure out what the hell is going on. We have no choice, he told the cheering crowd three times, and donald trump
