Between the hectic helter-skelter of nurses, doctors and well wishes from a long-cultivated community of friends and former aides, Bennett faced a quiet moment with his son Jim and his wife Joyce.
It was not a moment for self-pity.
Instead, with a slight slurring in his words, Bennett drew them close to express a dying wish: “Were there any Muslims in the hospital?” he asked.
“I’d love to go up to every single one of them to thank them for being in this country, and apologize to them on behalf of the Republican Party for Donald Trump,”
Bennett told his wife and son, both of whom relayed this story to The Daily Beast.
Re: Dying GOP Senator Apologizes to Muslims for Donald Trump
Asalamualykum,
I don't know who Bennett is or how (if) he is is related to Trump but he doesn't need to apologise for something that he never encouraged or said.
Pain and hardships allow you to grow spiritually Alhamdulilah so smile when a so called calamity befalls upon you.
Alhamdulilah Allah swt is the greatest.
