President Donald Trump said Wednesday he would “absolutely” support banning Sharia law in the United States, telling conservative host Glenn Beck that any attempt to establish it in the country must be stopped.

Trump made the comments during a live appearance on The Glenn Beck Show, when Beck asked whether the president would support legislation explicitly barring Sharia law with an executive ruling.

Beck raised the issue while warning Trump about what he described as “enemies” he said were “inside our own gates,” citing both Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and Islam and referring to what he called the “Red-Green Alliance.”

“On Sharia law, I would absolutely say that’s not this country. There’s no Sharia law. And you do have pockets of it, as you know,” Trump replied.

The president then pointed to European capitals as a warning, claiming Islamic law had become “almost like a second way of life” in some areas.

“I would say no, and you go to London, you go to Paris. It’s almost like a second way of life. It is ridiculous,” Trump said. “And I would absolutely be on your side on that, on a lot of other people’s side too, because, you know, you and I have people that, I think, we’re more based upon common sense than we are on ideology.”

He continued: “Good politics is all about common sense anyway but i would absolutely prohibit the Sharia law thing and it is happening in this country a little bit and when we see it we take it out and you have to take it out,” he continued.

“You have one system, we have a great system, sometimes it’s very frustrating but it’s the best there is, that I can say,” the president concluded.
