Jerry Lewis Praises Trump and Says Refugees Should ‘Stay Where the Hell They Are’
Mediaite ^ | December 29th, 2015 | Elizabeth Preza

Jerry Lewis criticized President Obama and praised Donald Trump in an interview on World Over with Raymond Arroyo; the iconic comedian also slammed the Syrian refugee program, telling Arroyo "refugees should stay where the hell they are."

"No one has worked harder for the human condition than I have, but they’re not part of the human condition," Lewis continued. "If 11 guys in the group of 10,000 are ISIS, how can I take the chance? I don't want to lose another Frenchman or another Englishman. That bothers me."

Lewis suggested the United States take a military solution to ISIS. "Why don't we have Germany and Italy and Great Britain, why don't have all of them, including Spain, doing something?" Lewis asked. "Get all of your military together, bring that military to our military and wipe them out."

"They're asking to be stopped, and we're not stopping them, we're just reporting what they’re doing. It’s ridiculous," Lewis added.

Lewis criticized Obama for failing to "understand" the threat of ISIS. "He was never prepared for it, and what I'm watching in him is uncertainty." Lewis said. "And you can’t have uncertainty in a leader."

Lewis also complimented Donald Trump, telling Arroyo he thinks the Republican frontrunner is "great."

"He's a showman and we've never had a showman in the president's chair," Lewis added.

Watch the video above, via EWTN. Lewis starts talking about the campaign at the 47:18 mark.

Bringing these fake refugees into the US is helping ISIS and hurting us.

A message from a dead person would be very credible....

The way the MDA treated him after all he did for them was disgraceful.

Those of the older generation who still know something about Reality.

Jerry Lewis lived through the Great Depression and World War II. He has some actual experience with what Deprivation and Evil look like.

Democrats can get dead people to the voting booths. How they do that?

Jerry Lewis has had pulmonary fibrosis for years. That is a terminal disease that killed a friend of mine in less than a year. I am amazed that he is still alive.

I feel ya, Jerry. The world is going crazy & its hard for those of us who’ve been around longer than a couple of decades to make sense of it.

The comedic predecessor to the faux-Jerry Lewis Pee Wee Herman - but I don’t think he hung out in mens’ rooms or schlonged in movie theaters

RE: I missed that. What did MDA do?

SOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Lewis

On August 3, 2011, it was announced that Lewis would no longer host telethons. Lewis is no longer associated with the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

On May 1, 2015, MDA announced that in view of “the new realities of television viewing and philanthropic giving”, the telethon was being discontinued.
