In an “aw shucks” John Wayne kind of way, Mike Pence is as rabid & hateful about Muslims as Trump–& Pence still has all his marbles. It’s US policy to whip up an irrational hatred for Muslims & refugees.
If you’re worried about hating on Russians rather than Muslims, you’re reading too much Glenn Greenwald, watching too much Fox News, & not listening enough to the rubbish that comes out of politician’s mouthes.
