Trump had received a briefing and eaten lunch with troops when he spoke to the crowd telling them there were so many terrorist attacks across the globe they weren't being reported any more.

He began by discussing how “radical Islamic terrorists are determined to strike our (the US) homeland” as they did on 9/11, in the Boston bombings and in San Bernardino.

He went on to say it was happening “all over Europe” like in Paris and Nice: “It’s gotten to a point where it’s not even being reported. In many cases, the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it.
