He said it's a few people who have serious problems.
According to a study reported by Vox, 3.3% of the US population think like the alt-right. The study asked questions that would help determine if someone should be included as an alt-right thinker even if they aren't a part of the alt-right or even if they don't openly support the prejudice this study was using for the basis of saying someone thinks like the alt-right. The actual people causing the problems are a fraction of this 3.3%. If you define a small group in the context of the US population (although really Trump was probably speaking world wide as it was a discussion about Australia) as 12 people, then yeah I guess you have a point.
