The Trump campaign is seeking support from Muslims.

In contacting others in the Muslim community to try and convince them to support Trump for president, Walid Phares, a foreign affairs adviser for Trump, said that most of the backchannel talks have been with Muslim Republicans who hope to influence his policies or want to clarify his positions.

Phares attempted to downplay the plan to ban Muslim immigrants.

"It's (banning Muslims) just a few sentences in a foreign policy announcement and a tweet, it's not like he’s written books or published articles or delivered lectures on this. He'll continue to add context and distinction to his position as he gets new information."
