But he says he believes she will be helped by the attack that left a Paris police officer dead, because she's the candidate who is "strongest on borders, and she's the strongest on what's been going on in France."France's anti-terrorism prosecutor said on Friday the gunman had a note with him defending the Islamic State group.Trump says he believes the attack will impact how the French people vote in Sunday's first round of voting in the presidential election.
