Syrians, Libyans should be banned from entering America –Trump

Is Trump courting nepotism by naming his children & son-in-law members of his transition committee?
Republican nominee Donald Trump has called for an immediate suspension of immigrants coming into American from Syria and Libya.
The mouthy presidential candidate made the call while addressing supporters in a major speech after a trip from Mexico.
Trump revealed he met with undocumented immigrants who committed violent crimes, telling thousands in the convention centre in downtown Phoenix that he had “met with many of the great parents who lost their children to sanctuary cities and open borders”.
Later, he pledged to impose “ideological certification” for immigrants seeking to enter the US, to include questions about so-called honour killings, women, gays and “radical Islam”. He said immigration would be suspended from countries like Syria and Libya.
“We have no idea where they’re coming from, we have no idea who they are,” he said of Syrian refugees.
