FULL TITLE: Hillary Clinton: Europe 'needs to get a handle on migration' in order to halt rise of rightwing populists

-----

Hillary Clinton has issued frank advice to European leaders: If you want to stop the rise of rightwing populists then get a handle on your immigration crisis.

Clinton, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, said during an interview with The Guardian that the one million migrants and refugees that have flooded into the European Union since 2015 have thrust immigration into the spotlight and fueled the rise of hardline leaders around the globe. And while she praised German chancellor Angela Merkel for her compassion, she cautioned that countries can’t leave the door open forever.

“I think Europe needs to get a handle on migration because that is what lit the flame,” Clinton said regarding the rise of rightwing populists like Hungary’s Viktor Orbán.

Clinton added: “I admire the very generous and compassionate approaches that were taken particularly by leaders like Angela Merkel, but I think it is fair to say Europe has done its part, and must send a very clear message – ‘we are not going to be able to continue provide refuge and support’ – because if we don’t deal with the migration issue it will continue to roil the body politic.”

Countries like Germany, Greece and Italy – which have been most affected by the influx of migrants – have argued that other nations throughout the region need to share in the burden. But the other countries, especially those in central and eastern Europe, have so far refused to help out.

Migration numbers have dropped precipitously from their height in 2015.

Wow!
No mention of native European children being raped. No mention of native European culture being erased in favor of muslim culture. No mention of laws being changed to prosecute any body who criticises islam.
Just gotta stop the continuation of Western culture.

The political and corporate elites have imposed their immigration policies on the people ignoring the disastrous impact it has on the country present and future. Those who oppose them are deemed Neo-nazis and the far right. It is nationalism versus globalism. The people versus the elites.

The article describes Hillary as a former world leader. That’s rich.

All those right-wing populists from the Middle East are ruining Europe.

We had better get a handle on LEGAL IMMIGRATION. Since 1990 we have brought in 35 million legal immigrants, the equivalent of the current population of Canada.

Immigrants vote more than two to one Democrat.

Clinton is worried about white people, not the Jihadists who blow themselves up on a regular basis. I wonder how long Saint Hillary would last in a Muslim no go zone

There are no native Americans. The “Indians” came here 20,000 years ago across the Siberian land bridge from Asia.

Does this person never sleep? Why on earth does she believe she has to dispense advice to everyone and every country on the planet? What makes her think she has so much to offer the world? She’s off her rocker. Why doesn’t her husband tell her to put a sock in it or why doesn’t her daughter tell her she’s embarrassing the whole family? She is not above crowning herself as the most sought after person on earth. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her build herself a castle and minister to her subjects. Does she want her grandchildren some day to cringe at the stories of their weird, out of touch grandmother? I do not think the woman thinks about anything except herself...

The only way Hillary’s statement declaring the importance of handling the European immigration problem makes sense is if she’s planning to run for President of Europe.

She’d win by a landslide, since most Europeans want their borders to be protected. Which is precisely why Europeans have been turning to rightwing populists, since their current leftwing leaders have not taken the immigration problem seriously.

But, alas, Hillary will have to run for President of the U.S., where the immigration problem is growing worse but which also has a rightwing populist president dedicated to solving it — solving it while constantly facing opposition from Hillary and her Democratic party who have dedicated themselves to open borders — except, of course, in Hillary’s case, when she’s visiting Europe and instead presents herself as dedicated to handling the immigration problem.

I’m sure there has to be videos of hilary extolling the virtues of the migration of islamists into Europe.

Or a nice Gadaffi run through town.

The leftists are really pushing for a war. They're trying to use our system to destroy us through their cheating and massive corruption. We have every right to demand justice. Without it, there can be no lasting peace.

“I do not think the woman thinks about anything except herself...”

She probably holds a small spot in her tiny heart for people like Chelsea and maybe her grandkids when they ain’t crying or ruining her buzz if one should have to go the hospital.

“Why on earth does she believe she has to dispense advice to everyone and every country on the planet?”

She’s pathologically narcissistic, that’s why. She needs to be special. Her whole existence hinges on it.
