Rather than sophistry, it might be more productive to supply a third explanation for why someone would try and claim Trump hasn't worked hard to give the impression he wants a Muslim registry?

Bonus points if you can explain the massive cognitive dissonance between supporting a man who goes out of his way to muddy the waters where his plans and opinions are concerned, and the gnashing of teeth about Clinton's admittance that it can be useful to have a public and private stance.
