As the new elected mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, happened to be a Muslim, Donald Trump gave him a special exemption for entering the U.S. However, the Member of Parliament dissed the presumptive president of the United States for his 'ignorant' Muslim remarks.
Sadiq Khan Rejected The Immunity
According to CNN Politics, Sadiq Khan refused Donald Trump's suggestion to give him the immunity to come in the U.S. in spite of the latter's traveling ban to the Muslims. The British politician believed the television personality's Muslim claim gave an impolite outlook to the Islam community that could result to put both their countries in danger.
"It risks alienating mainstream Muslims around the world and plays into the hands of the extremists," Sadiq Khan said. He, too, added that the Muslim issue was not only about him but, also it affected his friends, family and every Muslim in the word.
London Mayor Proved Donald Trump Wrong About Muslims
The Guardian added Sadiq Khan explained that Donald Trump and those people around him thought that the westerners "liberal values" were opposing the typical Muslim's way. Hence, he boasted that London is the big evidence that proved them wrong.
To recall, Donald Trump once said that he proposed a temporary travel ban for Muslims to get into the United States. Because of his controversial statement, "The Apprentice" host became a hot topic even more, as per New York Times.
Donald Trump Happy Over Sadiq Khan's Victory
However, Donald Trump revealed he was happy to know that Sadiq Khan won the mayoral position in London. He was then later asked his proposed Muslim ban also concerns the social democrat and he said that "there will always be exceptions."
Donald Trump also claimed that it was a good thing for London to have Sadiq Khan as its mayor and hope that he will perform his job very well. "Because I think if he does a great job, it will really -- you lead by example, always lead by example," he disclosed.
