Not sure the scenario, but I think Trump said he would honor the deal, then the Post spills the story to make Trump look bad, and that point he says, “We’re looking at the deal.”
Bottom line, this guy Turnbull thought he’d have a nice little chat chat with Trump, talk two minutes about the refugees and move on. Trump would not have any of it, and hung up on the guy after 25 minutes.
Don’t blame him. I mean why would you enter into an agreement with Obama on or about 11/14/17 after the election. This was a chicken shit behind the scenes move on Turnbull’s part.
The agreement was made earlier in the year, the PM tried to rush it because of the election results!
I’d like to see Pres. Trump turn this on both Turnbull and also Canada’s Trudeau — make some public statement that Trudeau says he wants all the refugees and so the USA will let Canada take this batch.
It would show up not only Turnbull for his tricks and posturing, but also Trudeau for posturing about how Canada is so morally superior to Trump’s USA etc.
After all, it was PM Trudeau who just made his passionate statement about how Canada is always wide open to refugees, let him “walk his talk” now.
Because he know BO can be bought off.
