Leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump says the United States might have to do things that would have previously been “unthinkable” following the terrorist attacks in Paris.
The attacks, which extremist Muslim group ISIS later took credit for, left 129 people dead and hundreds of others wounded.
Yahoo prompted Trump by asking, after he noted he has concerns about the Muslim community in America, whether his push for increased surveillance of American Muslims could include warrantless searches.
“We’re going to have to do things that we never did before. And some people are going to be upset about it, but I think that now everybody is feeling that security is going to rule,” Trump said.
“And certain things will be done that we never thought would happen in this country in terms of information and learning about the enemy. And so we’re going to have to do certain things that were frankly unthinkable a year ago.”
