Donald Trump now says even legal immigrants are a security threat

By Jenna Johnson August 5 at 8:16 PM

First Donald Trump said that he wanted to block nearly all foreign Muslims from entering the United States. More recently, he decided to stop using the word "Muslim" as he called for halting immigration from countries with high rates of terrorism, although he has yet to say which countries that would include.

At a rally in Portland, Maine, on Thursday afternoon, Trump provided a lengthy explanation of why he thinks the United States needs to be skeptical of immigrants from many countries, even if they follow the legal process.

It's not the legality, it's the people. Bet we don't have to scrutinize Europeans who come - well, except for the black or Muslim ones.

Did she claim a degree on her immigration forms, like she did on her (very public) web site?

Show us the immigration forms.
Show us the tax returns.

Stop hiding, Trump & Trump.

It's true (McVeigh, abortion doctor killers, etc.), but Trump will never ever admit it.
