Trump reportedly accuses Australian PM of seeking to export next ‘Boston bombers’
Fox News ^ | 2/2/2017 | FNC Staff

President Trump reportedly had a fiery conversation over the weekend with Australia’s prime minister over a refugee deal agreed upon under the Obama administration.

Trump reportedly blasted the agreement as “the worst deal ever” and accused Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull of seeking to export “the next Boston bombers.”

The call went so badly, Trump told Turnbull that he had spoken to Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto and Russia’s Vladimir Putin and their call was his “worst so far.”

I am glad we finally have someone that is concerned about the possibility of the next Boston Bomber.

Thank you, President Trump.

The initial response to any report of this nature should always be: "FAKE NEWS!!" until proven otherwise.
After this we may discuss such parameters as context, timing, etc. Then we can always point out that each leader is responsible for the general welfare of his own nation.

Trump turned his world upside down, which is good because it was upside down so now it’s right side up.

A dingo ate my empathy.

I agree with the part about national leaders need to watch out for their country’s interests but FNC is pretty good about running their stuff through what they call “the brain room” where stories get verified and this apparently happened last weekend so they have had time to verify it.

I think the takeaway here should be that obama negotiated a raw deal for America; not that the Australian Prez tried to screw us. I don’t think he did. We have to remember obie has been doing his level best to get as many muslims into America as he could during his two terms. He didn’t care who or what kind of muslims they were. One can only assume he did this because he can’t stand Christian’s or white colonialism and he has practically broadcasted his glee of America turning brown.

I’m not sure America could ever have a worse President than obama; he was/is that bad.

Worse yet, it’s about helping to spread Islam into the west. IMHO.

“OH BOY IS THIS GREAT!” :)

Not so much for cops or maybe the national guard for the next 4 to 8 years.

Trumps tweet is to test the waters. I think he wants to know if his base supports him cancelling Obama’s agreement.

A resounding YES! Mr. President. Cancel it.

FOX article begins with the word “reportedly” and ends with “The Associated Press contributed to this report” I agree that FOX is “pretty good,” but they’ve slipped up before. Sky News reports that PM Turnbull denies that Trump hung up. There is another thread at FR on that article, just recently.

It’s so hard to discern the truth anymore, but here is another article: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2017/02/01/media-advance-new-narrative-mean-trump-with-phone-call-leaker-in-white-house/ that cast doubt on AP and WAPO stories about this.

I’ll be curios to see what Spicer says today about this. I’m so sick of the lies. If Trump has a temper problem, he needs to be called out. If FOX is playing games, they need called out, too.

“If Trump has a temper problem, he needs to be called out.”

If somebody calls you on a Saturday to dump on you thousands of refugees, hanging up is the appropriate response.

I do not know the details of the agreement Obama entered into, but technically Getmo is part of the USA.

Your points about AP being ‘full of it’ are right.

If details about phone calls don’t come from President Trump, or an official source such as Sean Spicer, it’s garbage/filler/rumor/embellishment.

In addition, (per freeper Mariner) details of such calls are —classified—. That means serious consequences for anyone divulging the contents.

With Trump’s early-AM hours, we can expect more late-night telephone exchanges with “Down Under”.

Turnbull said the strength of the bilateral relation was evident in that Trump agreed to resettle refugees from among around 1,600 asylum seekers, most of whom are on island camps on the Pacific nations of Nauru and Papua New Guinea.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Who are these refugees? Muslims, victims of war? Trump agreed to admit them?

A lot of vagueness in this article.
