Trump's running mate: 'Ook Arabische christenen en joden niet welkom als Trump president wordt'

Jews along with Christians, and not just Muslims, could be prohibited from immigrating to the US under a proposed ban by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, his running mate Mike Pence indicated Monday.

Without specifically mentioning the two religions, the conservative former Indiana governor said the proposed temporary ban on immigrants from areas "compromised by terrorism" would apply to individuals of all religions.

I think what you heard in the convention speech from Donald Trump, what we talked about out on the stump is that we would temporarily suspend from countries, or territories if you will — the caliphate obviously of ISIS expands beyond one country — but to say that individuals that come from regions or countries that have been compromised by terrorism, that we would expand that immigration. I think that’s appropriate until we develop a new vetting system.
