What a fucking moron.
During a counterterrorism speech on Monday, Donald Trump claimed that Orlando shooting suspect Omar Mateen was born in someplace called ?Afghan.? He then transitioned to discussing how his proposed ban on Muslim immigration would help prevent similar attacks from occurring in the future.
But there?s a big problem with Trump?s linkage of the Orlando shooting suspect?s origins and his Muslim ban ? Mateen wasn?t actually foreign-born. In fact, he was born in the same borough of New York City that Trump was.
