At the risk of being crass, we've said on several occasions that the Paris attacks, the San Bernardino massacre, and the wave of sexual assaults that have swept Western Europe are the best things that ever happened to Donald Trump's presidential campaign.
It seems exceedingly likely that Trump had very little conception of what was going on in the Balkans when he stormed onto the political scene last summer with inflammatory comments about Mexican immigrants. As luck would have it, just two months later, Europe's migrant crisis reached a critical tipping point when Hungarian PM Viktor Orban built a 100-mile razor wire fence in an effort to seal his country's border with Serbia. Suddenly, Trump wasn't the only one building walls.
Europe's worst nightmares came true in November when gunmen and suicide bombers killed 130 people in Paris and although the connection with Syrian refugees was tenuous, the tragedy nevertheless served to validate anti-immigration rhetoric. The San Bernardino massacre less than a month later tied it all together for Trump. Muslims. Immigration. Murder. America. It was all there.
Subsequently, Trump would blast Angela Merkel's open-door migrant policy and before you knew it, he was being endorsed by the likes of far-right, anti-immigration Dutch politician Geert Wilders and France's Jean Marie Le-Pen.
In January, Trump called Brussels a "hellhole."
On Tuesday morning, three explosions ripped through that "hellhole," killing at least two dozen and injuring many more in an attack that's likely tied to last week's capture of Paris fugitive Salah Abdeslam in the Muslim enclave of Molenbeek.
Needless to say, the media jumped at the opportunity to get Trump's take and Fox was first up with the GOP frontrunner's initial reaction this morning. Here's what Trump said:
"Do you all remember how beautiful and safe a place Brussels was? Not anymore!""I would close up our borders."
"[Muslims] have to be more open with the police. They have to let people know when they see people making bombs on the first floor of an apartment."
"This is just the beginning. It will get worse and worse. It's out of control."
"We cannot allow these people to come into our country. They're not assimilating into society. There's something different going on."
"Muslims have to be checked very, very carefully. Muslims aren't assimilating easily into other countries. There's something wrong."
"It's probably going to happen here."
Do you all remember how beautiful and safe a place Brussels was. Not anymore, it is from a different world! U.S. must be vigilant and smart!

Trump’s policies are the most conservative of all those running and that ran.
So much so, that Cruz copied his illegal immigration plan, after months of silence about what he would do with illegals here.
I just heard from Cruz mouth on Becks radio show the most disgusting thing I have heard yet!
He just said he wanted to lift the bomb victims in Brussels up in prayer, ESPECIALLY some MORMON MISSIONARIES who were there!
Especially? If thats not blatant pandering on today of all days I dont know what is!
Beck wears his insanity like a badge of honor.
Yes he does but Cruz spewed this garbage!
GIVE IRAN WHAT IT WANTS.
NUKES, LOTS OF THEM. BOOM BOOM BOOM.

THIS ATTACK IS WORSE THAN THE ONE IN PARIS. FRANCE HAS 66 MILLION, BELGIUM HAS 11. If there are 40 dead, that’s like 240. OF COURSE THE EUROPEANS STILL CAN’T FIGURE OUT HOW TO ATTACK ISLAM.
YOU MUST KILL 1000 FOR EVERY 1 THEY KILL OF YOURS. MOSLUMS WILL UNDERSTAND THAT. THEY ARE GOOD AT MATH.
GIVE ‘EM 48 HOURS TO EVACUATE THEN....NUKE TEHRAN FOR STARTERS. THEN CONTINUE WITH OTHER MOSLUM CITIES TILL THERE IS PEACE. PEACE WILL BE WON,ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.
DO IT BEFORE THEY GET NUKES BECAUSE WHEN THEY DO, THEY WILL KILL U.S. ALL.
Muslims have to admit that a good Muslim from the West's point of view is a bad Muslim from its left wing radical rabid Sharia Law followers.
Just think of how much faster we could have defeated the Nazis if we had only allowed them to come to the US as refugees!
Trump is the only one who is specifically putting the blame where it belongs and actually saying the word: Muslims!
Go Trump Go!!!
Go Trump Go!!!
RE: Just dont draw a picture of Mohammed. Dont taunt the Muslims. Trump does not approve of that, and went on the record on May 10, 2015 following a different jihadi mass murder attempt.
Millions of Americans once thought muslims were decent people and the terrorists were only a small part. And they believed doing or saying things about their religion was wrong.
Millions of Americans have awakened. Trump is one of them.
This really has to be done. It's the only thing they'll understand. God will take care of the innocent.
The media is going to condemn him for this, and that will convince more people to vote for him.
“Nazis would be and are ostracized in this society. So should Muslims be until they renounce their religions radical ideas.”
great post! The western world has been brainwashed “the religion of peace” BS.
post this whenever you can - it needs repeating.
Especially? If thats not blatant pandering on today of all days I dont know what is!
Well, I'll flat out say now, that cruz is one slimy bastard!!

Manson might not have raped and married a tiny child like Muhammed did. Also, a billion people haven’t fallen for Manson’s crap.
