Trump Just Gave an Epic Response to Everyone Criticizing Him Over Fan’s ‘Obama Is Muslim’ Comment
By Dave Urbanski. Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump replied Saturday to growing criticism over not correcting an audience member’s statement at a rally Thursday that President Obama is a Muslim.
Trump tweeted, “Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him? I don’t think so!”
Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him? I don't think so!

This is the first time in my life that I have caused controversy by NOT saying something.

Trump Says He’s Not ‘Morally Obligated’ to Defend Obama Against Claims
By Eugene Scott. Donald Trump on Saturday said it is not his job to correct supporters’ claims about the President, defending his decision not to take issue with a man who disparaged Muslims and said President Barack Obama is not an American.
Trump did not dispute the man’s allegations made at a town hall event this week, and added that if someone criticized him to Obama, there would be “no chance” the President would come to his defense.
“Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him? I don’t think so!” he tweeted Saturday morning . . .
He then followed up by saying Obama would not have defended him in the roles were reversed.
If someone made a nasty or controversial statement about me to the president, do you really think he would come to my rescue? No chance!
