Trump urges probe into terrorists’ families
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleRepublican presidential front-runner Donald Trump says he’d be open to racial profiling and investigating the families of people who carry out extremist attacks.
He tells CBS that he’d be “very tough on families” of attackers, adding he’d “go after the wives” of attackers.
He also says people near the attackers sometimes know there’s something wrong but refuse to report them for fear of “racial profiling.” Trump says he thinks that’s “pretty bad,” and that people have died as a result.
Trump says he’s not playing on people’s fears, “I’m playing on common sense.”
He tells CBS that he has Muslim friends who “are great people” and are concerned about extremism, too.
