Donald Trump says he's now more against allowing Syrian refugees into the U.S. than ever, warning it could be a way for terrorists to sneak into the country.
"We have no idea who these people are, we are the worst when it comes to paperwork," Trump said Monday on CNBC. "This could be one of the great Trojan horses."
Trump has been saying for weeks on the campaign trail that the U.S. should not accept refugees from the civil war torn country, and he says he's only standing by that position stronger in the wake of the horrific terrorist attacks in Paris.
At least six of the suspects in the Paris attack have ties to Syria, according to French affiliate BFM, and at least one is believed to have entered Europe with refugees.
"We cannot let them into this country, period," Trump said Monday. "Our country has tremendous problems. We can't have another problem."
The mogul also slammed German Chancellor Angela Merkel, one of the most powerful leaders in Europe, for allowing refugees into Germany. She has been under pressure to reverse an open-door policy.
"As far as Merkel's concerned, she ought to be ashamed of herself, what she's done," Trump said, saying there are "riots in the street" in Germany over refugees.
He added he has a lot of respect for Merkel, but not on this point.
"She blew it, when she allowed this to happen, this migration," he said.

Trump is of course correct: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3360764/posts
Throwing open the gates and indiscrimately allowing all and sundry to enter (no matter their background or intent) is THE most irresponsible thing ANY leader could do!
No American in or out of a uniform EVER fought or died for SUCH a total and shameful devaluation of US citizenship.
Did we open up to general refugees from Germany during World War II?
PREACH IT DONALD!

Trump has won my support because he’s speaking the truth.
Soundslike Paul Ryan is too stupid to understand what a Trojan Horse is.
How the heck did a guy with Paul Ryan’s bona fide liberal background get selected as the GOP Speaker of the House.
Yes. A question from American history:
What year or century did the United States of America first declare war on Islamists?
A. 2001 (9/11 World Trade Towers destruction)
B. 1996 (Khobar Towers Bombing of US military)
C. 1993 (World Trade Towers bombing)
D. 1983 (Beirut Barracks bombing of US military)
E. 1979 (Iran Hostage Crisis)
F. 1941 (In WWII USA had more than three enemies. Germany allied with Islamists in Jerusalem (possibly elsewhere too) which may have been what inspired Hitler changing plans from from expelling the Jews from Germany to murdering them in country)
G. 1801 (America sends US Marines to North Africa)
Give up? Hint: The lyrics in the US Marine song are for a reason and is the oldest official song of the US Military:
From the Halls of Montezuma
To the Shores of Tripoli;
We fight our countrys battles
In the air, on land and sea;
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to claim the title
of United States Marine.
Our flags unfurled to every breeze
From dawn to setting sun;
We have fought in ev ry clime and place
Where we could take a gun;
In the snow of far-off Northern lands
And in sunny tropic scenes;
You will find us always on the job
The United States Marines.
Heres health to you and to our Corps
Which we are proud to serve
In many a strife we ve fought for life
And never lost our nerve
If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heavens scenes;
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marines.
G. 1801 is correct. It is called the First Barbaric War. America sent our Marines against Islamists in Tripoli (Libya).

I agree with him 100%. He is right. People on FB are posting “people, wake up.”
Letting anyone in the country is a devaluation of citizenship - exactly right.
My wife said about two months ago they were putting the cat amongst the pigeons.

Semper Fi!
Trump was right!
Go, Trump, Go!
I hope he hammers this now until election day.
And every GOP governor should get on board ASAP.
