Trump: Paris attack "so sad," "countries will have to open their eyes & see what is really going on"

So sad to see the Terror Attack in Paris. At some point countries will have to open their eyes & see what is really going on. This kind of sickness & hatred is not compatible with a loving, peaceful, & successful country! Changes to our thought process on terror must be made.

Dead is dead. Calling it "terror" doesn't change that.
