“The battle is over there. And we have to fight the battle, and we can’t let any more people come into this country,” (Mr. Trump) said.
"Donald Trump warned Monday that more terror attacks are coming to America — while White House spokesman Josh Earnest played down the weekend attacks as part of “a war of narratives.”
Trump said that “we’ve been weak” and pledged to limit immigration of terrorists and to go after the terrorists “over there” and “knock the hell out of them.”
“You have to hit them much harder over there,” said Trump. “We’re going to have to do something extremely tough over there.”
“This is only going to get worse. You have to stop them from coming into the country,” the mogul added.
Just a couple of hours after Trump’s interview, the inspector general of the Department of Homeland Security reported that the US mistakenly granted citizenship to 858 immigrants who had deportation orders pending from countries of concern to national security or with high rates of immigration fraud
White House spokesman (Earnest) explained (to Morning Joe): “In some ways, this is actually just a war of narratives. We want to get out our counter-narrative against ISIL. And we’re having some progress, we’re making some progress".”
