Wednesday, President Trump’s now infamous Muslim Travel Ban, headed to the Supreme Court. The Court heard arguments to determine whether the ban is constitutional. While arguing on behalf of the travel ban, Solicitor General Noel Francisco confused Islam, the world’s second largest religion, with a country, leading to Islam is a great country trending on social media.

Solicitor General Francisco said during his closing arguments, “He (President Trump) has made crystal clear that Muslims in this country are great Americans, and there are many, many Muslim countries who love this country. And he has praised Islam as one of the great countries of the world.”

I heard that today. Could have gone one of 2 ways.

Misstatement by council
I can also picture Trump actually saying that.

A bit young to be making those kinds of mistakes. However, he is only human. Maybe he felt some stress at that moment.

I cannot really say such a simple transposition is relevant to anything.

Hell, I’m sure it was a “Bushism” moment by the lawyer...doesn’t make it any less funny.

The Nation of Islam? Didn't think the travel ban applied to them.
