TRUMP: US SHOULD ‘HELP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE,’ WITH REFUGEE CRISIS, ‘POSSIBLY’ LET SOME IN
Breitbart ^ | 5 SEPT 2015 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 09/07/2015 12:37:22 PM PDT by South40

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump stated that while “There’s only so much we can do. We have to fix our own country” the US should “help as much as possible” with the European refugee crisis and “possibly” let some refugees into the US on Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”

Trump was asked about the European refugee crisis and, “Should we be letting some of those people into this country?”

He answered, “So horrible on a humanitarian basis when you see that. It’s like incredible what’s going on. But, you know, we have so many problems. And the answer is possibly yes, Cokie, possibly yes.

You are so full of sh** with your lies. Trump isn’t a life long Democrat

Reading comprehension problems? I never said your liberal hero was a "lifelong demomcrat". If you believe I have please point to it. I said "lifelong liberal" and that is 100% true.

Boehner is a liberal, but he isn't a democrat. You can understand that simple concept, can't you? Apparently not. So be it.

RIDICULOUSLY misleading headline, gets it backwards. Trump actually said:

"There’s only so much we can do. We have to fix our own country. Now, Europe is handling it. Germany has been very generous so far, which is very surprising to me, to be honest with you. But there’s a huge problem, and we should help as much as possible, but we do have to fix our own country.”

I don’t recall Libya or Syria ‘harboring terrorists’ at the time of their overthrow/attempted overthrow. If ‘harboring’ be the criteria, then why have we not gone after Iran or the Saudis who have been harboring the Wahhabis or Pakistan??? Are their terrorists’ different? And no, I don’t like policies that create a mess, that we don’t clean up, that then come back and bite us in the ass. Do you??

Muslim counties need to take care of each other...

The United States can help with transportation of these people to Saudia Arabia, Turkey, UAE etc... This is a Muslim Problem... within the religion are incentives for endless war...

And yes, while they’re being safely transported to Jordon or where ever we can provide them with food and shelter for the duration of the trip.

He isn’t putting refugees up any place. It’s apparent you didn’t read the full context either. Since you made a snide remark about Mar-A-Lago, that tells me you are dripping with envy.

Let’s not go back to the 2008 and 2012 campaigns. No mudsling, let’s disagree but keep it civil.

..."cause all migrants to disavow Islam & convert to Christianity or Judaism".... No Problem...they're already way ahead of you....

Hundreds of Muslims are converting to Christianity 'to greatly boost their chances of winning 'asylum''... by allowing them to claim they would face persecution as a Christian if sent home... rather than an economic immigrant who would be deported....

They are making it much harder for 'real' persecuted Christians to get approved for asylum.... one congregation swelled from 150 just two years to more than 600 parishioners and now a 'unending flow' of new refugees finding the way to those congregations to convert....

Lots of Islamic Warriors on the way........these are some of Syrian immigrants brought in over the weekend....here they were waiting to cross the border from Greece to Macedonia, in the border town of Idomeni to join up with the others...

I was really just trying to point out that true refugees can be assimilated and are an important part of America’s great history. You really Have in you some true American, more than most! But I meant it a bit sarcastically. We have let in millions of poor people for no good reason. This might prove to be a good reason to take some in and have them assimilate as true Americans. Like we all used to do.

What a misleading headline from this Breitbart writer's FIRST story. Last month where Trump BASHED Obama for KEEPING OUT Christian Syrians, wehile letting Muslims in...

Trump SHREDS Obama on His Pro-Muslim Bias, And Makes a Huge Announcement to Christians

It sounds like he really didn’t know enough to give an answer, so he replied with “possibly yes” Not “definitely” or even “probably” but “possibly”

What would have been wrong with saying no?

Trump keeps showing his true colors every chance he gets. He’s all talk and a real button pusher. “Outsider”? He’s Mr. Inside and we’re being sold a marketing job.

That’s right I am jealous of a jerk with money. As Bugs Bunny would say, “What a Maroon!”

Sorry, cats. I’m guilty. But it will take more than just a headline to make me (DH, too) rescind support for Trump. IF he takes that position, though, we WILL have a problem.

It’s not going to do much good to build a wall & kick the illegals out if we’re going to turn around & increase H1Bs &/ or letting a bunch of muslims- or anyone else, in. ME Christians, yes, because they are compatible & are in grave danger where they are.

Since you judge I may qualify as a true American, what religion or people is it that you posted that I hate?
