Trump reverses himself on Syrian refugee question, says we have too many problems of our own!

Posted by Ann Corcoran on September 10, 2015

The other day, Presidential candidate Donald Trump sounded a bit squishy on the issue of bringing in large numbers of Syrian refugees, but on Hannity last night he says what sure sounds like a NO!

Watch the clip, he does mention that the wealthy Gulf Arab States and Russia aren’t taking any (terrorism fears?).  He could mention that China is never asked to take any as well!  The UN does pound Japan to take refugees, but they only take a tiny number as they are wisely trying to save their unique culture.

Here he is in a far-ranging interview that begins with his views on the Iran nuclear deal.  For the refugee discussion begin watching at 7:50 minutes.  Thanks to Richard at Blue Ridge Forum for alerting us to this news.

 

 

Please see our earlier post this morning where we reported that fellow GOP Presidential hopeful, Gov. Scott Walker, is saying no as well.

If you see more on what position other candidates are taking, please send a link in a comment to this post.

Obama will likely be telling the world sometime this month how many he will “welcome” to live in your towns and cities.

    This requires not only commitments from candidates, it requires a state by state show down. If right of refusal applies to anything it applies to this.

    Hello Ann, please forgive me for not sticking purely to the subject under this heading, but I am so incensed with the failure of the media to properly report ALL of the monsters in this tragedy.
    Hundreds of thousands of words have been written about SYRIA and its ‘refugees’, but I doubt if a thousand of those words posted, not just on your fantastic site, but on the entire internet, have deigned to examine the ROOT CAUSE of the exodus of Syrians from their country.
    For those interested in this root cause, let me refer you to one single person who, by all that is just, should be ‘hung-out-to-dry’ for his involvement in the cataclysmic destruction, not only of the country, but of hundreds of thousands of INNOCENT people.
    Do we know his name?
    Do we see his face?
    Do we know his aims?
    Do we know if he has a conscience?
    Has anyone in the Media, anywhere in the West, laid any blame at HIS doorstep – spread his image about?
    NO, no, no, no, No.
    What a disgusting creature he must be – and – he purports to be a Doctor!
    Can you believe it?
    These and many other questions ought to be on the tip of the tongues of those who, without any REAL knowledge of the situation, are supporting the destruction of Syria, and the disgusting abuse of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, because in simple terms, that is what this so-called ‘civil war’ is achieving – and the rest of the world is paying dearly for this tragic time in the history of the Middle East.
    And the ‘man’ at the forefront of this human tragedy is………..
    Khaled Khoja. Have you EVER seen the media point the finger at HIM for using chemical weapons? Well, only today your Military in the USA have at long last admitted that Assad, if it is true, is using chemical weapons – but it is now patently clear that the ‘opposition’ in the form of Khoja, are most certainly doing so.
    Do you see him pontificating on the Media?
    Incidentally, he is purported to be a MEDICAL Doctor, supposed to have four, or more, children. There is NO DOUBT he and his fellow gangsters are complicit not only in the murder of innocent Syrians, but for the displacement of hundreds of thousands of his supposed OWN innocents. What a monster he must be, a latter-day Mengela perhaps. And his henchmen? Rape, beheadings, intimidation we rarely see the blame being laid at the door of this mob. And for what ultimate purpose? Without doubt it is to bring about a further vast area of the Middle East converting to a New Caliphate, and undoubted enslavement, as IS has done to the women who have been foolish enough to join their ranks. If I wasn’t so verbose, I would be speechless.
    If I have found out about this disgusting monster with a couple of clicks – so perhaps more interested readers might now expose this depraved character as being at least as vile of Assad.

  12. The motivation for Obama’s desire to have millions of violent Muslims from violent Muslim countries inserted into the USA, without our permission or involvement in the approval process, is clear. He is a Muslim fanatic, a racist, and a Marxist, therefore hates infidels, especially white Christian capitalists who created the most successful democracy/republic in the history of the world.
    His ilk cannot exist in the vacuum left by the merging of competitive ideologies. Islam cannot exist without the threat of brutal, lethal action against “the people of the book”, fear mongering that has allowed their agenda to flourish for more than 1400 years.
    That such a revengeful man could exist and in America is a disappointment beyond my ability to explain.
