Muslims ‘have to work with us’, Trump says, speaking of ‘partnership’

Trump who was expected to take the deadly shooting as an opportunity to promote his campaign, tried not to be branded anti-Muslim while speaking among his supporters in Manchester, New Hampshire, on Monday.
 
Some 50 people were killed and many others were injured Sunday when a gunman, identified as a Daesh sympathizer named Omar Mateen, attacked a gay nightclub.
 
Daesh terrorists were initially trained by the CIA in Jordan in 2012 to destabilize the Syrian government.
 
The real estate tycoon, who had already called for a ban on Muslims’ entry into the United States, said he would “suspend immigration from areas of the world where there is a proven history of terrorism," if he could win the White House after the 2016 presidential election.
 
"We have to control our borders now — not later, now."
 
He described the Orlando shooting as "an assault on the ability of free people to live their lives, love who they want and express their identity."
 
Trump made the comments a day after the deadliest mass shooting in the country and the worst terror attack since 9/11.
 
According to the FBI, 29-year-old Mateen, of Fort Pierce, Florida, was interviewed in 2013 and 2014 but was not found to be a threat.
 
Trump has also pointed the finger at US President Barack Obama for the attack.
 
He told the CNN earlier in the day that national intelligence officers are "not being allowed to do their jobs" due to restrictions imposed upon them by the Obama administration.
