The leader of the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has cited the Republican candidate at a rally in the south of the country on Saturday, saying the statements of Mr. Trump were based on facts. “He would nearly certainly fail, given his general ignorance and weak grasp of basic facts about American history, principles and functioning of our government”, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said in a statement before the speech.

Trump said that there are “many such regions”, but did not name them specifically.
In December, he said he would temporarily block all Muslims, but he said last month that he would instead keep out people from countries “compromised by terrorism”. “I think he was being very serious”, Mike Pence said during an intervention on FOX News.
