Donald Trump wasn’t backing down after the liberal, conservative media, Hillary, and others tried to impugn his integrity. He took to social media to respond to all the controversy about his alleged failure to correct a man at a New Hampshire campaign event who called President Barack Obama a Muslim.
Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him? I don't think so!

If I would have challenged the man, the media would have accused me of interfering with that man's right of free speech. A no win situation!

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

Christians need support in our country (and around the world), their religious liberty is at stake! Obama has been horrible, I will be great

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!
