Trump Open to Ground Troops in Syria, Expands on Safe Zone Idea

WORCESTER, Mass. — Donald Trump would be open to putting boots on the ground "if need be" in the fight against ISIS, he told reporters before a rally in Massachusetts Wednesday night.

"We've got to get rid of ISIS quickly, quickly. Not for a long time. Let me tell you what I really want to do. I want to get other people to put troops on the ground and we'll back them up 100 percent," he explained.

Trump added to his recently proposed idea of a "swatch of land" in Syria that would act as a safe zone for refugees, telling reporters that other countries would fund it and that it's the least expensive idea. "We give a little bit but other countries, like the gulf states, should fund it."

He again reiterated that if he wins, refugees who have already come to the United States will go back.
