Real-estate mogul Donald Trump suggested in a Tuesday interview that the capitals of France and Belgium have been adversely affected by the lack of "assimilation" from their Muslim residents.
Fox Business Network anchor Maria Bartiromo asked Trump about the practicality of his plan to bar Muslim immigrants and tourists from the US, given the size of the world's Muslim population.
"There is something going on, Maria," Trump replied. "Go to Brussels. Go to Paris. Go to different places. There is something going on and it's not good, where they want Sharia law, where they want this, where they want things that — you know there has to be some assimilation. There is no assimilation. There is something bad going on."
The Republican presidential front-runner said Brussels, the capital of Belgium, had been particularly transformed. Belgium has been home to a number of recent terror plots, and was linked to the November attack on Paris, France, that left 130 people dead.
"You go to Brussels — I was in Brussels a long time ago, 20 years ago, so beautiful, everything is so beautiful — it's like living in a hellhole right now," Trump continued. "You go to these different places. There is something going on."
Trump ignited a national firestorm last month when he proposed a temporary ban on Muslim immigration and tourist travel to the US. The business mogul argued that such a hard-line approach was necessary to keep the US safe from terrorism, but critics questioned the effectiveness and legality of the proposal.

Poor choice of words, Megyn. Or didn't you hear about the multiple bombings with innocents, oh, sorry, they're just non-Muslims, killed, this morning in Brussels?
When Trump is sworn-in in January, he needs to give a BIG THANK YOU to the terrorists in Europe for backing up his claims about them.
It's not about winning, it's about waking up.
Megyn heard about Trump saying something, and figured out a way to criticize him about it.
Coming soon to a city near you in the US if Hitlery is elected President. Only Trump can stop her now.

Hey Colin, I got your firestorm right here, dipsh*t:
Imagine if he proposed a permanent ban. ...which SHOULD be the plan.
I swear America needs a President Trump RIGHT NOW!
Its going to happen in America any minute, does not help that all law enforcement agencies are told to stand down, orders from the highest level.
And to make it worse presidential candidates that are also soft on radical muslims. Give them a teddy bear and a hug?
Utah will, zombie-like, vote against Trump in the caucus, because a temporary ban on Moslem immigration is sooooooo racist. Who cares about a bunch of people killed in Belgium? Banning entry is just racist.
Just doing what Muzzies do best— fundamentally transforming once pleasant places into he’ll holes.
Trumptadamus is at it again. Go Trump.
They were just talking on Fox about how easy it is to transport guns and explosives throughout Europe because of "open borders".
The hypocrisy of our media and pols is criminal.
Its easy to take them across the border from Mexico.
Yo have illegals, drugs, disease, gangs, terrorists, radioactive materials....
Just how fast can a wall BE built?
All of Utah has found a lovely frozen snake......
Piss on them, let them live with their stupid choices.
You think that is the reason?
Really?
A whole state thinks a MUSLIM ban is "racist"? Wow. I never would have suspected. I would have thought they'd maybe find at least one other reason to vote for who they vote for.
Brussel is clearly responsible for all this hate and violence. They’re too divisive
