[See NewsBusters for more.] Despite the fact that numerous Republican presidential candidates have condemned Donald Trump’s call to ban all Muslims from entering the country, an MSNBC political analyst tried to connect it to all members of the GOP. Actor and liberal radio host Sam Seder appeared on Monday’s All In and began, “What Donald Trump was saying is obviously repugnant and antithetical to American values, and it.”  He added, “The groundwork for that has been laid by years of Republican rhetoric, including even the premise that people have to be worried about being blown up.” All In host Chris Hayes echoed this sentiment: “This is a logical extension of something that Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush and a whole bunch of people were saying just last week.”
