No, Trump didn’t say it! . . but he should have . .
I better look at the transcript to see what happened..
Trump: There should be a lot of systems, beyond databases. We should have a lot of systems. And today you can do it. But right now, we have to have a border, we have to have strength, we have to have a wall, and we cannot let what's happening to this country happen any longer.
Reporter: But that's something your White House would like to implement?
Trump: Oh, I would certainly implement that. Absolutely.
Reporter: What do you think the effect of that would be? How would that work?
Trump: It would stop people from coming in illegally. We have to stop people from coming into our country illegally.
Reporter: Specifically, how do you actually get them registered in a database?
Trump: It would be good management, what you have to do is good management procedures and we can do that.
Reporter: Do you go to mosques and sign these people up?
Trump: Different places. You sign them up at difference places. But it's all about management, our country has no management.
The transcript shows quite a mess. First Trump avoids the registry question. Then he thinks the follow up questions are about the wall while the reporter seems to think they are about the registry. Then Trump answers specific questions about the registry. At some point it needs to dawn on Trump what is going on.
Trump needs to follow the conversion and communicate better.
