Trump reverses himself on Syrian refugee question, says we have too many problems of our own!

Posted by Ann Corcoran on September 10, 2015

The other day, Presidential candidate Donald Trump sounded a bit squishy on the issue of bringing in large numbers of Syrian refugees, but on Hannity last night he says what sure sounds like a NO!

Watch the clip, he does mention that the wealthy Gulf Arab States and Russia aren’t taking any (terrorism fears?). He could mention that China is never asked to take any as well! The UN does pound Japan to take refugees, but they only take a tiny number as they are wisely trying to save their unique culture.

Here he is in a far-ranging interview that begins with his views on the Iran nuclear deal. For the refugee discussion begin watching at 7:50 minutes. Thanks to Richard at Blue Ridge Forum for alerting us to this news.

Please see our earlier post this morning where we reported that fellow GOP Presidential hopeful, Gov. Scott Walker, is saying no as well.

If you see more on what position other candidates are taking, please send a link in a comment to this post.

Obama will likely be telling the world sometime this month how many he will “welcome” to live in your towns and cities.

He didn’t actually reverse himself, he was trying to talk around Bill O’Reilly and got cut off in mid-sentence. That is the usual thing with Bill O’Reilly. He is afraid someone will notice that he is not the only male on the set.

2A “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Agree. Islamic immigration to the West has been a disaster everywhere. Its killing Europe.

GOOD FOR TRUMP!

Shows that he’s human, after responding to the MSM with that dead kid they planted on the beach - but then, after some talking to, or perhaps peeking into this site (which I’m sure he does), he realized that we are BEING SCAMMED.

That’s good, but can he be trusted not to change his mind back?

Obozo can't concern himself with who is a Christian, who isn't and who should be allowed to come to America. He's letting the UN decide.

97% of Syrian refugees admitted to US in 2015 are Muslims

They are not checking backgrounds.

Crisis once again is the reason de jour.

Their parents probably entered when cheap labour and merchant immigrants were were an advantage.

Bringing in 100,000s people into the first half of the 1900’s type economy made more sense than now.

Massad Ayoob, Joseph Farah and Klinger were all from that background.

El Cajon is 47% Iraqi Chaldean (Assyrian Christian).

That's turning out to be a major mistake. It's not the religion that's their problem, it's their culture. Factor in religion (islam) and we'll have a real nightmare on our hands.

Fact is that this Gov is creating this mess and we just can’t afford it today.

I think we need to build a wall around DC, then we won’t need one on the borders.
