from Part III - Islamophobia in Criminal Law and National Security Law
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 September 2020
In the 2016 presidential election campaign, candidate Donald Trump made many outlandish, and outright scary promises. One of his more controversial campaign proposals was to implement a Muslim ban, and he showed willingness to implement a Muslim registry. At first this was shrugged off as another attempt by Trump to placate to his voter base. At that point in his campaign, there was no hiding that Trump was exhibiting xenophobic views in an attempt to win votes and support. Once candidate Trump became President Trump, many expected him to pivot away from the divisive rhetoric and embrace a more moderate stance to his policies. It became evident early on after the election that Trump had no plans to change his positions. Controversial Trump proxies such as Sebastian Gorka, Stephen Miller, and Steve Bannon sent the message that Trump was doubling down on his policies, particularly those against Arab, Muslim, and immigrant communities.
