Trump to CNN: 'I love the Muslims'

Donald Trump on Saturday responded to a question from CNN about whether Muslims pose a danger to the country, saying: "I love the Muslims. I think they're great people." The Republican presidential front-runner made the comment after addressing high school students here at their homecoming Saturday night. During a question-and-answer session with students, Trump was unable to avoid being asked about the latest political controversy dogging his campaign: his decision not to correct a supporter this week who called President Barack Obama a Muslim. One student told Trump that she considered Muslim-Americans to be an important segment of the country. They asked whether the billionaire businessman would consider putting a Muslim in his Cabinet or on his ticket. "Oh, absolutely," Trump responded. "No problem with that."
