Donald Trump said Sunday he thinks U.S. law enforcement needs to "seriously" look at the "profiling" of Muslims as a way to fight terrorism.
"I think profiling is something we're going to have to start thinking about as a country," the presumptive GOP nominee said on CBS's "Face The Nation." "Other countries do it. You look at Israel and you look at others, and they do it and they do it successfully."
"I hate the concept of profiling, but we have to start using common sense and we have to use, you know, we have to use our heads. ... We really have to look at profiling. We have to look at is seriously," Trump added.
"I think, right now, we have some pretty big problems, and they're problems coming out of radical Islamic groups. You know, radical Islamic groups. You have a very, very strong group of people that is radical Islamic and that seems to be a problem," Trump explained.

In the days since the shooting at an Orlando nightclub that left 49 dead and 53 wounded — the deadliest such incident in U.S. history — Trump has made no secret of his desire to target Muslim-Americans.
He has ripped President Obama for refusing to use the phrase "radical Islamic terror" and has doubled down on his proposal to ban all Muslims from the U.S.
Trump has suggested in the past that law enforcement should target mosques with additional surveillance.
