These refugees will murder us. Trump may castigate the Mexican illegal aliens (good), but he has spoken in favor of accepting these murderous terrorists. Another reason I cannot support Donald Trump for President.

So this means they will all be staying at the White House and then moving in with the Administrative staff after they are out of office? Nice of them to be so accepting.

Settle them all in Detroit, where the increase in the murder rate won’t be noticed.

Oh here it comes. I am surprised it took this long for the “America Destroyer” to open the flood gate. And with Europe (Merkel of Germany especially) opening its gates to the hoards of Muslims -— just wait. This present lie about the number of Muslims that Obama wants to pour into our population is just the beginning.

There is more to this than meets the “media eye”.
