What does fluency have to do with anything? Yeah and in his time
in south Africa?

Yet you have no shame criticizing Trump, who never said such stuff?
Are you a troll?
> He respected all religions and was tolerant to all cultures. He considered Hindus, Muslims and Christians his brothers. He didn't even hate the English. He just wanted them to free India.
He was a nationalist and a patriot but both kinda wise, realising
British were too powerful, and also somewhat of a chicken so he
didn't led the armed insurgency like Mao Tse-Tung, Castro, or
Tito. He wasn't alpha, but ok.
And it's stupid to consider Hindus, Christians and Muslims as
brothers. If we're all the same, and you like everyone the same,
do you really even love the ones that are close to you? How do
you love your own, if you love everyone the same?
If you like all the colors the same, then what's your favorite color?
That's a very important philosophical question.
> He loved the minorities. He wanted to eliminate castism. He has a hardcore liberal.
So is Trump.
> Trump OTOH is intolerant of other cultures and religion. He hates Muslims and minorities. And is not a liberal by any means.
Trump married two Slavic non-American women and also gave his
daughter to a Jew and signed a maga hat to Kanye West. How is
that intolerant to minorities?
I think his personal life demonstrates more openness than yours,
living in USA but ordering a wife from back home.
As for the ridiculous travel ban, it's not a Muslim thing. It's
identity politics Hillary/Obama brainwashing that confuses you.
It's math, just as with police profiling. If certain demographics
are statistically more likely to commit crimes, it's your duty to
address the issue, not to pretend that all of them pose the same
risk, and that e.g. Japanese guy is as likely to blow himself up
as is a Muslim guy.
Aren't you some kind of engineer and understand stats? Probably
not considering you have Lendl on top.

That's essentially the same thing. The root of the words are the
same and similar. It's just gay virtue signaling, using term
patriotism over nationalism. One just "sounds more
PC".

Good for you.
> Not all Muslims are the same. Some are fanatics and some are extremely tolerant of other religions. The Muslims in India are more or less extremely liberal and consider India to be their home country. Most of the top actors of Bollywood and other India film industries are Muslim. We had a well respected Muslim President. Try that in America, it will never happen.
Why would America have a Muslim president? Care to explain that?
When will India have a Russian orthodox president? And why should
it have one in the first place?
