In an attempt to diffuse a volatile situation, Donald Trump has offered to buy the Ground Zero Mosque property for 25% more than the developers paid. As a condition for the offer, Trump stipulated any new Mosque must be built at least five blocks farther away from the World Trade Center site. Kudos to Donald Trump.
WNYC reported:
Donald Trump is stepping into the fray over the proposed Islamic cultural center and mosque near Ground Zero. The business magnate and television personality sent a letter to one of the financial backers of the project proposing to buy the building where Park51 would be located.
Trump offered 25 percent more than what the building was bought for. In the letter he makes the offer because it will end a “very serious, inflammatory and highly divisive situation.”
