Trump Hails Mass Execution of Muslims

At a campaign event in South Carolina, Donald Trump praised the mass execution of Muslims in the Philippines by telling an apocryphal story about General John Pershing, MSNBC reports.

Said Trump: “He took fifty bullets, and he dipped them in pig’s blood. And he had his men load his rifles and he lined up the fifty people, and they shot 49 of those people. And the fiftieth person he said ‘You go back to your people and you tell them what happened.’ And for 25 years there wasn’t a problem, okay?”
