On a scale of 1-10, how well do you think your government is doing on fighting terrorism?

Nearly 62% rated this a “6” or higher – indicating their satisfaction with government anti-terrorism efforts.

38% rated a a “5” of less.

When asked, What more do you think your government should be doing to prevent similar attacks? – nearly everyone shared an opinion, with comments ranging from

“More police on the streets”, “Close the borders”, “Stop immigration” and “Deport all muslims”

Does Donald Trump have the answer on terrorism?

As seen in a Piers Morgan-authored piece on the Daily Mail.com, published 22, Mar 2016,

“Belgium officials effectively conceded today that they have no real way to protect themselves against the ISIS threat.”

“Is he so wrong?”



Morgan, in his interview with Trump, found himself nearly agreeing with many of the statements from the brash, Presidential candidate – responding to the following statements in the article with “Is he so wrong?”. Statements from Trump including:

“…countries must tighten their borders in light of these terror attacks…” “…law-abiding Muslims [should] root out extremists in their midst…” “…America must make it far harder for illegal immigrants to enter the U.S. … European countries should follow suit…”
