And Rush had the same thing from his source
“...Now, in this call Trump supposedly denounced as dumb the deal that Obama had struck where the United States would trade some illegal aliens from Central America for the 1,200 refugees from Iran and Iraq and Afghanistan, refugees that Australia will not let into their country. What this is really all about is that there’s central American refugees and Australia won’t let ’em in....”
There is a freeper (naturalman1975) who has commented on threads about this who lives in Australia.
He says they will not take refugees that try to come illegally. They allow people to come in legally.

Excerpt:
Australia does take refugees - but we take them out of camps overseas after they’ve applied for asylum and been processed, or in some cases if they enter Australia on a legal visa of some sort, and then claim asylum and are found to have a genuine case.
But you cannot attempt to come here illegally, and ever hope to live here. If you’re a genuine refugee - do it legally, do it properly.

Too funny. Australia Herald Andrew Bolt outlines “the leaker” of the phone call between Australian Prime Minster Malcolm Turnbull and U.S. President Trump came from down under – Turnbull leaked it. Malcolm Turnbull tried to play a game of dirty politics with terrible results.
