Egyptian Immigrant Faces Deportation For Threatening To Kill Donald Trump

Now, however, El-Sayed and his lawyer are crying foul, saying that he didn’t really mean he wanted to kill Donald Trump when he said he wanted to kill Donald Trump. It was just a slip of the tongue you see, made in the heat of the moment, not the potentially serious threat to a leading presidential candidate that the media would be reporting if it were directed at, say Hillary Clinton:

“El-Sayed said he wrote the message because he was angered by Trump’s comments about Muslims. He said he immediately regretted it, and he never intended to harm anyone.

‘It’s just a stupid post. You can find thousands of these every hour on Facebook and the media,’ he told The Associated Press in a phone interview from jail. ‘I don’t know why would they think I am a threat to the national security of the United States just because of a stupid post.’

El-Sayed said the agent who interviewed him mentioned last year’s shooting rampage by a Muslim husband-and-wife couple in San Bernardino and the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, which were carried out by Muslims who had sought flight training in the United States.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement that El-Sayed was arrested because he violated ‘the terms of his admission to the United States.’ The agency did not provide further details.

The State Department and Secret Service declined to discuss the case. A Trump campaign spokeswoman also declined to comment.

El-Sayed is from Cairo, but he said he spent much of his life in Saudi Arabia, where his father worked as a civil engineer. He came to the United States for the first time last September to attend Universal Air Academy with the hope of returning to Egypt and getting a job at an airline, he said.

He said he’d like to continue his studies in the United States if the government lets him stay. If not, he will seek a refund of some of the $65,000 he has spent on his education and use it to study elsewhere.”
