From the father of the Gold Star soldier who spoke at the DNC:   Khan continues to advocate against Trump’s temporary ban on refugees and immigrants from seven predominantly Muslim countries. He argues that the proposals are unconstitutional and will only make America a bigger target for terrorism.

“Enemies of the security and safety of the United States have been given a platform to speak now to 1.6 billion Muslims,” he said, referring to the global Islamic population. “They say, ‘See, we’ve been telling you that America is not your friend.’”

Khan noted that presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama both worked with the global Muslim community to fight against terrorism, while Trump “has alienated them.” Bush and Obama both repeatedly said that the U.S. is not at war with the Islamic faith, but with terrorists who pervert the religion.
