While speaking to reporters outside his Mar-a-Lago estate, Trump was asked whether attacks in Europe and the assassination of the Russian ambassador to Turkey this week had caused him to re-evaluate his previous proposals to create a Muslim registry or ban Muslim immigration to the U.S.
“You know my plans," he replied, without getting into specifics. "All along, I’ve been proven to be right. One hundred percent correct. What’s happening is disgraceful."
Trump did not contest in that response that he had plans for a Muslim registry, as he did in November of last year, even though his spokesman Jason Miller issued a statement last month saying that the President-elect “has never advocated for any registry or system that tracks individuals based on their religion, and to imply otherwise is completely false.”
