Trump, June 13: But the Muslims have to work with us. Trump said something similar in his afternoon speech. For some reason, the Muslim community does not report people like this. I already hear it starting to happen of people that knew him, the ex-wife and other people. They don’t report them. You will find that many people that knew him felt that he was a whack job, he was going - something like this would have happened. This is the case of intelligence gathering, information. Romans, June 13: But how do you equate what happened here with what - with a Syrian refugee? needs to “stop people from coming in from Syria.” CNN’s Christine Romans asked Trump what the shooting has to do with Syrian refugees, and Trump responded by saying he was concerned that “the Muslim community does not report people like this.” On CNN’s “ New Day,” Trump said that the U.S. 2, 2015, shooting in San Bernardino was carried out by Syed Rizwan Farook, who was born in the United States, and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, who came to the U.S. of being complicit in the attacks in San Bernardino and Orlando without any evidence.

Trump implied that some Syrian refugees are members of ISIS because they had “cell phones with ISIS flags on them.” Norwegian officials found images of ISIS flags on some refugees’ phones, but the head of Norway’s asylum program said there may be other reasons for that - including the need to pass through areas controlled by ISIS.There is no evidence for Trump’s claim that “many people,” including neighbors of the San Bernardino shooters, saw “bombs all over the floor” of the apartment, but did not report it to authorities because of concerns about racial profiling.As it did before, the FBI closed its investigation without action. In fact, the FBI investigated Mateen again in July 2014 because he attended the same mosque as a Florida man who carried out a suicide bombing mission in Syria. law enforcement agencies “have to look at the mosques” to stop terrorism. In fact, Mateen’s co-workers in 2013 reported that he boasted of having terrorist ties, and the FBI investigated and interviewed him. Trump said “many people” thought the Orlando shooter, Omar Mateen, “was a whack job,” but they didn’t report him.
