Trump Suggests Bringing Refugees to the U.S. Would Invite a ‘Military Coup’
Mediaite ^ | 10/03/2015 | Josh Feldman

Donald Trump today suggested that bringing Syrian refugees would bring about a “military coup” in the United States.

Trump spoke with Fox’s Eric Bolling on Cashin’ In for the full half-hour, and when Bolling brought up the subject of the Syrian refugee crisis, Trump again expressed his deep skepticism about potentially bringing ISIS fighters amongst the ranks of refugees into the United States.

He even went so far as to suggest to Bolling “this could be one of the greatest military coups of all time.”

Bolling suggested a possible “Trojan horse” and Trump agreed, adding that the U.S. would be “totally unprepared” were any of the refugees to actually be connected to ISIS.

Yes, I thought the headline could be very misleading.

The headline did make it sound for a minute that the military would say, enough is enough, and act to protect the country.

But we have to be careful what we wish for.

I have to say, even 10 years ago, I would never even think such a thing.

Now, every day brings a new Odingo outrage.

Thanks Brah, I play to win every down but I am a student of the game...

All of these folks are deeply invested in what has come forth from The Pyramid and their are large cracks emerging...

And no way for them to fix them, significant retrenching going on as the program is not working as planned and there was no contingency plan for failure

They went all in and God was waiting, it will get bumpy for a bit but they will pay heavy price, and it will go on for years as the rocks are all turned over

We must remain diligent and stalwart

Sic Semper Tyrranus!!

Watch and See...

A lot is happening very fast. This can’t go on for a year. I keep hearing the word “coup”.

Oh, come on now Trump, they’re just being brougbt here to do the jobs Americans won’t do, as an act of love of course. When has the DNC, RNC, or the CofC ever steered us wrong?

Yep says the next President of the United States. I have not seen the evangelical leaders getting together for a laying of hands for any of the other candidates. Trump is the guy. Otherwise we will be in CWII.

Many of the 80% unmarried men coming here are coming because they will never have a wife in their polygamous society. Since the Koran sanctions raping girls, boys, women who offend them and female domesticated animals, as well as taking women as slaves, THEN THE COMMUNITIES WHICH TAKE IN THESE MEN BETTER GET READY FOR GANG-RAPES!!!

I am as opposed to Syrian refugees as anyone. I would strongly prefer that we take 0 refugees. I fear what they may do once here, up to, and including nuclear terrorism.

But trump ought to learn how to use the language correctly. That the Syrians are a denger, there is no doubt. But a military coup is when a country’s own military overthrown from within the previously legitimate government of the country.

We could face many things from the Syrians: terrorism; failure to assimilate; if it led to further moslem immigration to our country, the islamification of our culture; but a military coup d’etat is not one of them. I don’t see large numbers of American generals and admirals, colonels and captains, etc., moving to overthrow our government.

I don’t think that’s what trump meant, I think he meant, possibly, some sort of military invasion on the part of ISIS by smuggling in fighters in the 200,000.

That’s a “military invasion,” not a “military coup.”

If he’s going to be president, he should learn the meanings of words. This is worse than Jeb conducting his campaign in Spanish. Trump is speaking gibberish; at least for those who understand spanish, Jeb is comprehensible (although his words in any language are unacceptable as US policy).

It will be a coup when sharia law coexists then takes over.

How so and in what direction has Trump wondered off track?

And this thread demonstrates why Trump MUST be the nominee. He dares go where the other candidates fear to tread. Don't worry, Cruz will be his VP.

TRUMP/CRUZ!!!

What Trump says is a potential scenario desired by the negro community organizer from Chicago who along with his administration is “transforming America” into a Third World Hell.

...

Oh please. Obama is merely continuing the work of destroying the middle class. Many others from both parties have done the same. They want two classes in this country. The Ruling Class, and everybody else.

You had better read about the influx; i.e. millions of aliens. 60,000 Syrians scheduled for Idaho, changing it from a Red State to a Blue State. Somali’s changing Ohio, Maine and Michigan forever. Just Google and weep.

Dear Leader Trump can do no wrong. Get over it.
