过去一年中，三名共和党众议员发表了以下言论：称“穆斯林不应属于美国社会”、将穆斯林女议员称为“恐怖分子”、称“比起穆斯林更希望是狗”、对如今的纽约市长佐兰·曼达尼（Zohran Mamdani）用手抓饭吃表示“滚回第三世界”，并宣称穆斯林“靠生育繁衍渗透美国社会”。
与此同时，总统唐纳德·特朗普两周前在其日益排外的近期言论中，又添了一句：主张将两名穆斯林女议员“送回她们的原籍地”。
过去，共和党人在斥责这类言论时总会“挑时机”。
但如今，共和党领导层似乎已基本放弃公开批评此类言论——至少在公开场合是如此。
而他们的默许态度愈发明显，即便党内部分成员日益担忧另一种偏见正在美国右翼政治中蔓延：反犹主义。
这里提到的三人组包括佛罗里达州众议员兰迪·法恩（Randy Fine）、得克萨斯州众议员布兰登·吉尔（Brandon Gill）和田纳西州众议员安迪·奥格尔斯（Andy Ogles）——他们用不加掩饰的偏见言论攻击穆斯林。
最新的例子是奥格尔斯周一在社交平台X上的帖子：“穆斯林不应属于美国社会。”
在该帖发布后的两天内，共和党领导层几乎公开回避讨论这一问题。众议院领袖的表态尤为勉强，最典型的是议长迈克·约翰逊（Mike Johnson）和多数党督导汤姆·埃默（Tom Emmer）的措辞。
“我已与这些议员，以及所有议员就我们的语气、信息和言论内容进行了沟通，”约翰逊周二被问及此事时表示。他补充道：“我们尊重每个人的信仰、践行信仰的权利，以及自由表达信仰的权利。”
但随后，这位路易斯安那州共和党人却长篇大论地阐述所谓“伊斯兰教法的危害”，声称“正是这一点在煽动（矛盾）”。
“人们使用的语言——虽与我的表达方式不同，但我认为这是个严重问题，”他说。
“当有人试图来到这个国家却不融入，反而试图推行伊斯兰教法——伊斯兰教法与美国宪法相冲突——这就是人们所讨论的冲突，”约翰逊表示。“这并非针对穆斯林个人，而是针对那些试图推行与宪法直接冲突的不同信仰体系的人。”
但奥格尔斯的言论并未提及伊斯兰教法，而是直接攻击所有穆斯林。
21世纪以来，共和党人长期渲染“穆斯林移民试图在美国实施伊斯兰教法”的可能性，但几乎没有证据支持这一说法。
埃默同样极力回避回答奥格尔斯言论的广度和深层影响。
在接受PBS新闻小时栏目记者莉萨·德贾尔丹斯（Lisa Desjardins）采访时，埃默将批评重点放在“拒绝融入美国文化、实施欺诈行为、信奉极端意识形态的人”身上。
在德贾尔丹斯反复追问奥格尔斯的言论时，埃默最终似乎暗示部分穆斯林是“好人”。
“我想到了穆罕默德·阿里（Muhammad Ali），想到了（前NFL球员兼电视主持人）艾哈迈德·拉沙德（Ahmad Rashad），”埃默最终说道（据《政客》报道）。“我认为我们有很多‘好人’的例子。”
据德贾尔丹斯报道，有少数共和党人对奥格尔斯的帖子表达了更直接的反对。佛罗里达州众议员卡洛斯·希门尼斯（Carlos Giménez）称其“不合适”，阿拉巴马州众议员加里·帕尔默（Gary Palmer）补充道：“我不认同这种说法。”此外，特朗普政府官员理查德·格伦内尔（Richard Grenell）在X平台上对奥格尔斯表示：“停止攻击美国宪法第一修正案。”
但共和党高层的主流态度似乎是“给奥格尔斯留有余地”。
而这种未加谴责的态度，似乎让奥格尔斯更加无所顾忌。他周二晚再次发帖：“穆斯林无法融入；他们都得滚回去。”
这与不到一个月前法恩的言论如出一辙——当时他在社交媒体发文称：“如果必须二选一，选狗还是选穆斯林并不难。”
（他声称是在回应一位亲巴勒斯坦活动人士关于“狗是不洁之物”的帖子，而该活动人士称自己的帖子只是个玩笑。）
正如《纽约时报》记者安妮·卡尔尼（Annie Karni）等人指出的，共和党领导层对法恩的言论也未加过多评论。（右翼阵营中唯一公开反对的是梅根·凯利（Megyn Kelly），她称法恩的帖子充满偏见。）
几天后，这位佛罗里达州共和党人推出了一项名为《保护小狗免受伊斯兰教法影响法案》（Protecting Puppies from Sharia Act）的立法。
然而，最能说明共和党高层对反穆斯林言论“纵容”的近期案例，或许是特朗普发表国情咨文之后。
密歇根州众议员拉希达· tlaib（Rashida Tlaib）和明尼苏达州众议员伊尔汉·奥马尔（Ilhan Omar）——法恩曾将她们称为“恐怖分子”——在特朗普演讲期间对其进行“嘘声抗议”后，总统在社交媒体上发文称：“我们应该尽快把她们送回她们的原籍地。”（他显然是指将她们送回出生地——尽管奥马尔出生于索马里，但 tlaib 出生于底特律，两人均为美国公民。）
2019年特朗普也曾发表类似“滚回去”的言论（当时针对的是 tlaib、奥马尔及其他进步少数族裔女性议员），当时引发轩然大波。
那次言论遭到强烈谴责，甚至包括共和党人的反对——部分人将其定性为种族主义。
但这一次，共和党人在公开场合基本保持沉默——正如他们对特朗普日益针对索马里移民的排外言论的态度一样。
“我不希望他们留在我们国家，”他曾说，“他们的国家之所以糟糕是有原因的，那里烂透了，我们不希望他们来我们国家。”
共和党人往往难以斥责这位主宰其政治运动的总统。但不这样做的风险也很大——这会助长右翼阵营中更多人效仿，无论是针对穆斯林还是其他群体的偏见言论。
而面对此类言论愈发泛滥，共和党人似乎也没什么可反驳的。
The GOP’s increasing blind eye to anti-Muslim bigotry
Analysis by Aaron Blake

PUBLISHED Mar 11, 2026, 3:15 PM ET
Over the past year, a trio of House Republicans have said “Muslims don’t belong in American society,” labeled Muslim congresswomen “terrorists,” expressed a preference for dogs over Muslims, told now-New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani to “go back to the Third World” because he ate rice with his hands, and said that Muslims “breed their way through our society.”
President Donald Trump, meanwhile, added to his increasingly xenophobic recent commentary two weeks ago by advocating for sending two Muslim congresswomen “back from where they came.”
In the past, Republicans have picked their spots when rebuking these kinds of comments.
But increasingly, it appears GOP leaders have largely given up policing them — at least publicly.
And they’ve largely given up even as some members of their party appear increasingly concerned about another form of bigotry taking hold on the political right: antisemitism.
The trio here — Reps. Randy Fine of Florida, Brandon Gill of Texas and Andy Ogles of Tennessee — have spoken in unvarnished and bigoted terms about Muslims.
The most recent entry is Ogles’ Monday post on X that “Muslims don’t belong in American society.”
In the two days since that post, GOP leaders have largely sought to avoid the issue publicly. Their reluctance to police it was perhaps most evident in the strained comments of two House leaders: Speaker Mike Johnson and Majority Whip Tom Emmer.
“I’ve spoken to those members, and all members as I always do, about our tone and our message and what we say,” Johnson said when asked about the matter Tuesday. He added: “We respect everyone’s beliefs and their right to live out their beliefs and to speak freely about their beliefs, and have that conviction.”
But then the Louisiana Republican expounded at length about the dangers of Sharia law, which he claimed “animates this.”
“The language that people use — it’s different language than I would use, but I think that’s a serious issue,” he said.
“When you seek to come to a country and not assimilate, but to impose Sharia law — Sharia law is in conflict with the US Constitution — that is that conflict that people are talking about,” Johnson said. “It is not about people as Muslims; it’s about those who seek to impose a different belief system that is in direct conflict with the Constitution.”
But Ogles’ comments didn’t say anything about Sharia law; he called out all Muslims.
Republicans have for much of the 21st century raised the prospect of Muslim immigrants trying to implement Sharia law in the United States, but there is little evidence to back up their claims.
Emmer also strained mightily to avoid dealing with the breadth and implications of what Ogles said.
In comments to PBS NewsHour’s Lisa Desjardins, Emmer focused on criticizing people who he said declined to assimilate to American culture, who commit fraud and who believe in radical ideology.
After Desjardins pressed him repeatedly on Ogles’ claim, Emmer ultimately seemed to suggest some Muslims were “good people.”
“I think Muhammad Ali. I think (former NFL player and TV host) Ahmad Rashad,” Emmer eventually said, according to Politico. “I think we’ve got plenty of examples of good people.”
There were a few Republicans who expressed more direct opposition to Ogles’ post, as Desjardins reported. Rep. Carlos Giménez of Florida called it “inappropriate” and Rep. Gary Palmer of Alabama added, “I don’t agree with that.” And Trump administration official Richard Grenell told Ogles on X: “Stop attacking the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.”
But the prevailing message from the top of the GOP seemed to be that they were giving Ogles room.
And the lack of a rebuke appears to have left Ogles unbowed. He posted again late Tuesday, “Muslims are unable to assimilate; they all have to go back.”
It’s a replay of what happened less than a month ago when Fine posted, “If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one.”
(He said he was responding to a post from a pro-Palestinian activist about dogs being “unclean.” The activist said that post was a joke.)
As the New York Times’ Annie Karni and others noted, GOP leaders didn’t have much to say about that, either. (One notable exception on the right was Megyn Kelly, who called Fine’s post bigoted.)
A few days later, the Florida Republican introduced legislation called the “Protecting Puppies from Sharia Act.”
Perhaps the most telling recent example of this dynamic of GOP leaders giving a pass to anti-Muslim rhetoric, though, came after Trump’s State of the Union address.
After Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota — the two congresswoman Fine has labeled “terrorists” — heckled Trump during his speech, the president posted on social media that “we should send them back from where they came — as fast as possible.” (He apparently meant sending them back to where they came from. Omar is from Somalia, but Tlaib was born in Detroit, and both are American citizens.)
When Trump made a similar “go back” comment in 2019 — apparently about Tlaib, Omar and other progressive women of color in Congress — it was a major scandal.
And it was met with huge rebukes, including from Republicans — some of whom even cast it as racist.
This time, Republicans have said basically nothing about it publicly — just as they’ve largely ignored Trump’s increasingly xenophobic comments about Somali immigrants.
“I don’t want them in our country,” he’s said. “Their country is no good for a reason. Their country stinks, and we don’t want them in our country.”
It’s often hard for Republicans to rebuke a president who so dominates their political movement. But not doing so risks emboldening others on the right to say similarly bigoted things, about Muslims or others.
And Republicans don’t seem to have a lot to say, even as these kinds of comments proliferate.
