DeSantis: U.S. Should Not Take Palestinian Refugees, Arab Nations Need To ‘Step Up’
The Dailywire ^ | OCt 14, 2023 | Daily Wire news

Posted on 10/15/2023 10:34:03 PM PDT by chickenlips

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said during multiple campaign events over the weekend that the United States should not allow any Palestinians from inside Gaza to seek refuge in the U.S.

The Republican presidential candidate made the remarks after Hamas, a Palestinian Islamic terrorist organization, murdered more than 1,300 Israelis last week and injured 3,000+ more in the deadliest day in Israel’s history.

“I don’t know what Biden’s gonna do, but we cannot accept people from Gaza into this country as refugees,” DeSantis told supporters at a rally in Iowa on Saturday. “I am not going to do that. If you look at how they behave, not all of them are Hamas, but they are all anti-Semitic. None of them believe in Israel’s right to exist.”

DeSantis noted that “none of the Arab states are willing to take any of them” and that those countries are the ones that should ultimately be responsible for helping Palestinian Arabs.

“You don’t fly people and import them into the United States of America,” he said. “So we’re going to be very strong on that. And I think about our country, you see these demonstrations supporting Hamas in the United States of America. How did we get to the point where people are out there doing that — you get reports of babies being murdered, all this other stuff — and your first instinct is to go out and praise the terrorists who perpetrated that? You have students at Harvard signing letters, praising Hamas for doing it.”

He's right.

Press your congress critters to not allow the refugees to come here.

DeSantis is correct. A lot of republican presidential candidates will agree with this, but he is the first one to officially make that statement.

Now, all the other candidates will to some degree sound as though they are copying or reacting to him. Usually, it’s Trump who stakes the first claim of a position on some particular topic. Can’t win em’ all.

Yes, he's right as rain about this, Arab nations need to step up and help out their own, particularly Egypt for obvious reasons. And no more invaders to the US, and the ones who are here now ought to be sent home.

(Side Question, though, to show one's ignorance: Are Palestinians necessarily Arabs? Or are they just a secular definition of people who bear some sort of political grudge about who owns what? Thanks in advance to whomever can clear that up.)

Still not gonna vote for him though. It's not like we have real elections any more or anything like that.

Right. After PBS finds a weeping mother and two little children for a TV story, the real “immigrants” will be thousands of bearded, grim faced men age 20-40 connected with terrorist training camps in foreign countries.

Won’t you be my neighbor——not.

Remember, please, we taxpayers paid around $200,000 total for several years of government entitlement the extended family and the two Boston Marathon bombers before they maimed and killed innocent Americans. So we paid for their bomb materials indirectly. And Rolling Stone put a kissable flattering rock star cover photo of the chief murderer on an issue.

Yes, DeSantis is correct. And so we should rally around the only person with this view who can actually win in 2024.

That person is not Ron DeSantis - he has no chance to take the GOP nomination. That person is Donald Trump.

Don’t get me wrong! I’m not a Trump fanatic. I see his many flaws. And he’s not my first choice for 2024. I’d rather see Rand Paul lead the party into the future.

But I’m also a realist. In the GOP primaries Trump is way ahead, everywhere. So barring some wild off-the-wall event, he is going to be our 2024 GOP nominee.

So it’s time to put our differences aside, and get behind our presumptive nominee.

Too Bad Ron... Great idea, but ‘Arab Nations’ have been smart enough to keep the ‘Palestinian’ vermin out of their countries. Only The USA and white european countries are stupid enough to let them in.

Trump is out there bashing Netanyahu and saying bizarre things about "very smart" Hizbollah. Why isn't he mentioning the fake "refugees"? His campaign is totally unfocused and unsubstantive. He just is...Trump. That may be enough while he's up in the polls, but what if he no longer is? Will he just suddenly "turn it on" after collecting cobwebs for months?

DeSantis' campaign has been a total disaster, and he is doing his best to receover from it, with very substantive comments that are unique in the GOP field. Even Nikky Haley today said she would welcome rapefugees from Gaza. Insane.

Meanwhile the House GOP disarray goes on another week, not looking good going into 2024. Do they even WANT to be in the majority?

Just for saying this, Biden and the Democrats will probably triple down and try to bring in as many terrorists from among their number as possible.

BUT Duh-Santis has been allowing into his state all
Sorts of illegals doing his states Citizens harm, and allowing (even aiding illegals with transport at times) to make their way to other states where they may be causing harm to others.

Why hasnt this clown seriously done his job and stopped all illegals from entry to US by way of FL?

Thank God.
Ron said it .
Halley is dangerous.
Trump is useless old fool complimenting the Terrorist Group.

These PLO lazy deadbeats are the Evil Thieves -Gypsies of the ME with a average IQ of 68 .
Jordan drove these ugly dangerous savages out of their country with tanks.

I wrote my Senator, Rick Scott, on this last night: NO Palestinians!

I tried my Congress critter, but her site wanted too much info from me (had to agree to emails, texts, phone calls from a number of people B4 I could send).
