Despite his call for a temporary ban of Muslims entering the United States and a database that would track all Muslims in the country, Donald Trump said Monday, “There will always be exceptions.”
The presumptive Republican nominee, in an interview with the New York Times, provided his first “exception”: London’s newly-elected mayor, Sadiq Khan, who is the first Muslim to be elected mayor of a Western capital.
“I was happy to see [Khan win],” Trump said. “I think it’s a very good thing, and I hope he does a very good job because frankly that would be very, very good.”
