Donald Trump doubled down on his recent comments Sunday and said, “I want a database for all refugees.”

Appearing on ABC’s “This Week” with George Stephanopolous, Trump said, “When the Syrian refugees are going to start pouring in to this country, we don’t know if they’re ISIS, we don’t know if it’s a Trojan horse. And I definitely want a database and other checks and balances.” (RELATED: Trump: ‘I Didn’t Suggest A Database’ For Registering Muslims)

Stephanopolous asked Trump, “Are you unequivocally now, ruling out a data base on all Muslims?”

Trump insisted, “No not at all. I want a database for the refugees that if they come into the country. We have no idea who these people are. When the Syrian refugees are going to start pouring in to this country, we don’t know if they’re ISIS, we don’t know if it’s a Trojan horse. And I definitely want a database and other checks and balances. We want to go with watch lists, we want to go with databases and we have no choice. We have no idea who is being sent in here. This could be the great Trojan horse, it’s probably not. But it could be the great Trojan horse of all time where they come in.”

“When I look at the migration and the lines and I see all strong, very powerful looking men, and they’re men, and I see very few women, I see very few children, there is something strange going on,” Trump explained. “And if you look at what’s happening in Europe, a lot of bad things are happening in Europe. Just ask then folks who live in Germany, George. A lot of bad things are happening. So we want to be smart… we want to be vigilant. We have to be vigilant.”

Trump continued, “We have to just say, it’s radical Islamic terrorism and that’s what it is and we have a president who won’t even issue the term. But when these Syrians come in, or wherever they are because we aren’t even sure if they’re coming in from Syria. If they’re going to come in, we have to be very, very vigilant, and a database would be fine for them and a watchlist is fine. We have to watch and see what we’re doing. They should not come in by the way, they should not be allowed in.” (RELATED: Hillary And The DNC Will Call Republicans ‘Radical’ But Not Muslim Terrorists)
