Defends Muslim celebration comments

At a rally in Columbus, OH, Trump reads an extract from The Washington Post about U.S. Muslims celebrating the destruction of the World Trade Center buildings.

But the media was going crazy, and one of my people came in, “Mr Trump, I have a story in The Washington Post”. Among the most dishonest people I have ever dealt with are the media. The level of dishonesty is unbelievable. This is a story from the Washington Post on September 18. [reads extract]. So they’ve come in and we’ve received hundreds of phone calls to my office, and they [the media] have tried to deny it…They’ll find some reason to deny it. They’ll call it a typo. A long and winding typo.
