Trump, advisers discuss combating terrorism
None
Advisers to Donald Trump are encouraging the GOP candidate to press for more surveillance and more information-sharing with local police departments to fight terror threats if he's elected president. The roundtable of advisers appeared to be discussing the contents of a potential policy statement.
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani said he wants Trump to make it clear the FBI should share information with local police departments in the fight against terrorism.
Giuliani says, local police often feel "they're not getting the information that they need, and they feel like they're flying blind sometimes."
Rep. Peter King added that it should be made clear that "the police have to be able to surveil." He had cautioned earlier that, "you shouldn't call it spying, it's surveillance."
Giuliani also said that one of his first actions after being elected mayor was to put police officers in mosques.
