As of 1223 hrs EDT, he still has made no comment.
Trump still has not condemned the Minnesota mosque bombing. Muslim leaders are waiting.
Since a makeshift bomb tore through a Minnesota mosque early Saturday morning, President Trump has used Twitter, his preferred platform for communicating with the American people, to rail about “fake news,” attack a Democratic senator from Connecticut and insist that he’s working hard while vacationing in New Jersey.
One topic Trump has yet to address: the mosque attack at the Dar Al-Farooq Islamic Center in the Twin Cities suburb of Bloomington, where several people were gathering for prayer.
Nobody was injured, authorities said, but the attack has left the Muslim community feeling unsettled.
And Minnesotans and others are still waiting for the president to condemn the attack.
That he has said nothing about this is rather a silent dog whistle to the bigoted asses to whom a Muslim ban, a Muslim registry, and increased federal, state, and local policing of Muslim neighborhoods all sounded great.
