On the campaign stump Thursday, presidential candidate Donald Trump took a question from an audience member at the event who stated that President Barack Obama was a Muslim.

"We have a problem in this country. It's called Muslims," said the first man Trump called on to ask a question. "We know our current president is one. You know he's not even an American."

"We have training camps growing where they want to kill us. That's my question," the questioner continued. "When can we get rid of it?"

Trump responded to the man by saying:

"We're going to be looking at a lot of different things. And you know, a lot of people are saying that, and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there," said Trump. "We're going to be looking at that and plenty of other things."

The Associated Press "explains" that: "Trump's questions about the president's country of birth helped build his stature among some conservative voters and pushed Obama to release a copy of his birth certificate in 2011. But the billionaire businessman has distanced himself from the issue during his current run."

When asked by NBC News for a clarification, the Trump campaign said that Trump understood the question to refer to "training camps" and not Muslims.

"To be clear, Mr. Trump's response to the question regarding training camps in this country was, 'We will look into it," he said.
