Chris Murphy Doubles Down: Trump’s Rhetoric Will Lead to Terrorist Attacks in the U.S.

‘Trump feeds that narrative by banning Muslims from entering the United States’

EXCERPT:

MURPHY: "I am saying that. I am saying that because the ability for ISIS to recruit people into its midst is dependent upon two narratives. One, that they are building a caliphate in the Middle East that will grow and grow and grow, 'Get on our side now before it’s too late.' That narrative is less available to them today because we are shrinking the territory they control. But the second narrative is, 'Join us because there is a war between the east and the west, between the Christian world and the Muslim world. We have to fight the West, we have to fight the Christian world at every turn,' and Trump feeds that narrative, by banning Muslims from entering the United States he feeds that narrative."
