Donald Trump tells non-Christians to identify themselves during a rally, asks audience; 'Should we keep them?'

Fresh from the debate stage on Monday night, Donald Trump hit the campaign trail again to raise support for his bid to become president.

On Wednesday, the Republican nominee was in Iowa where he was receiving the endorsement of a Christian Conservative group.

During the speech he asked members of the group to raise their hands if they were Christian Conservatives, to which he received a big cheer from the audience.

Following that he asked those who were not members of the group to raise their hands.

“Raise your hand if you’re not a Christian conservative. I want to see this, right? Oh there’s a couple people, that’s all right.

"“I think we’ll keep them, right? Should we keep them in the room, yes? I think so.”

This sparked a bit of backlash from the online community with Trump being branded as "deplorable" for asking the question.

Donald Trump takes attendance like a classroom: "Raise your hand if you're not a Christian conservative" #whereyaat https://t.co/4sjWNDStbm

I notice Trump did not raise his hand. Probably because he is not Christian and barely a conservative.
