Tuhia he haere tonu mō tēnei wāhanga - I muri i te whakaekenga o te Piriti o Rānana 2017
, I haere a Reza Aslan ki Twitter ki te karanga i te Perehitini o tera wa a Donald Trump "he puranga" me te "tamaiti tangata" mo tana whakautu ki te whakaeke. Hei whakautu ki ana korero, i kii a CNN i te Pipiri 9 kua tapahia e ratou nga hononga ki a Aslan, a, kaore e haere whakamua ki te waa tuarua o te raupapa "Believer". I kii a Aslan mo te whakakore, "Ehara ahau i te kairipoata. He kaitohutohu pāpori, he mātauranga hoki ahau. Na reira, e whakaae ana ahau ki a CNN, ko te mea pai rawa atu kia wehe atu mātou".
