Republican front-runner in the American Presidential race, Donald Trump, has once again lashed out at Muslims in a recent interview with CNN.

"I think Islam hates us, "We have to get to the bottom of it, There is a tremendous hatred of us ."the billionaire told CNN's Anderson Cooper when asked whether the religion was at war with the West.

"And we can't allow people coming into this country who have this hatred of the United States," he added.

Trump had in December caused uproar after he said there will be a complete ban of muslims entering the U.S if he were elected president.
