Jefferson may have read the Quran, he was a well read man. He did include it as being a religion which Americans can feel free to practice. This article was written in 2017 and told of how Trump would refuse to host a Ramadan breakfast at the White House for the first time in over 20 years and he never did during his presidency. A snub. Think about this! Benjamin Neyanyahu has hosted a Ramadan breakfast at Beit Aghion every year as PM and it was a tradition before he was PM. Fight Radical Islamic Terrorism but this was provocative insult to Muslims for no gain. Typical of Trump
