Preibus: Registry of Muslims wouldn’t be based on religion
Reince Preibus won’t rule out a Muslim registry at the same time saying a registry wouldn’t be based on religion.
On Sunday, NBC host Chuck Todd pointed out that Gen. Michael Flynn, Trump’s proposed national security adviser, has also promoted fear of Muslims.
“Can you equivocally rule out a registry for Muslims?” Todd asked Priebus.

“Look, I’m not going to rule out anything,” Priebus stuttered. “But we’re not going to have a registry based on a religion. But I think what we’re trying to do is say that there are some people — certainly not all people, Chuck — there are some people that are radicalized. And there are some people that have to be prevented from coming into this country.”
