You know when Trump passes, he'll be remembered for many positive things...you not so much.
So what , Trump was not prepared to score political points with US voters by killing a muslim to boost election chances .
Your leftist neighbor down the street is far and away more of a danger to our society than some muslim warlord halfway around the world.
