The Muslim ban proposed by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is "not the America we want", President Barack Obama has said. On Monday Mr Trump extended his ban plan to people from all countries with a terror history against the US. Mr Trump's tough-worded response questioned the president's patriotism. Treating Muslim-Americans differently will only make the country less safe by increasing division between the West and the Muslim world, he said. Tellingly, he avoided uttering Donald Trump's name, but the billionaire's demand after the Orlando massacre that he should resign as president for refusing to use the term "radical Islam" has clearly enraged him.
