Donald Trump's latest: 9/11 wouldn't have taken place if I was president

Days after he lambasted George W Bush for the 9/11 tragedy, Donald Trump went on to state in an interview that the 11 September, 2001 attacks would not have occurred under his presidency. Trump stated that he could have prevented the attacks because of his strict immigration policies. “I would have been different… I am extremely extremely tough on illegal immigration, am extremely tough on people coming to this country. If I was running things… there is a good chance those people would not have been in this country,” he told host Charles Wallace on Fox News Sunday.

AP[/caption] Though, as The Daily Mail reports, the 9/11 attackers entered the US on legal business, student and tourist visas. Trump reiterated that he did not blame George W Bush for the tragedy, but insisted, “I don’t want Jeb Bush to say ‘my brother kept us safe’ because 11 September was one of the worst days in this country’s history." Trump and Wallace also discussed taxation policies, defunding Planned Parenthood, the need to eliminate the Common Core testing system and the necessity for eminent domain. Meanwhile, The Daily Mail reports that Jeb told CNN’s State of the Union host Jake Tapper that he didn’t trust Trump with the nuclear codes, which are in the hands of the US President. Watch the Trump interview below. His comments on 9/11 begin at 9 mins and 40 secs.
