NJ Radio: Christie Tells WKXW Banning Muslims Is Wrong

Front-running Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump did not back down Tuesday from his call to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. He told CNN that he was doing what was right and he didn’t care that fellow GOP candidates are rejecting his position. Tuesday night on Townsquare Media’s Ask The Governor program on WKXW NJ 101.5 FM, Gov. Chris Christie offered his opinion.

Christie said banning an entire group of people is not the way to keep America safe.
“His proposal is banning all Muslims. All. no matter where you come from and so all I’ve said is it’s the difference between someone who has experience protecting America and someone who doesn’t,” Christie said during the program.

The ban that was proposed by Trump would apply to immigrants and visitors. He said after last month’s attacks in Paris by Muslim extremists and the recent mass shootings in San Bernardino, the ban is justified.

“We should be supporting our intelligence and law enforcement officers to keep us safe,” Christie said on Ask the Governor. “You don’t do it by banning a group of people from our country.
