1:06Now PlayingOn Monday, President Trump falsely claimed that the media is intentionally covering up terrorist attacks. "It’s gotten to a point where it’s not even being reported," Trump said. "And in many cases, the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it." The claims appear to be part of a wider push by the White House to increase fear about potentialand even imaginaryterrorist attacks in order to justify President Trump’s crackdown on immigration, including his Muslim ban. We speak to Harvard professor Stephen Walt. His recent piece in Foreign Policy is headlined "Trump Has Already Blown It."
