I'm pretty sure you're talking about refugees. Why don't you go ahead and do a little research before you lose a bet?

Simple question:  Why are these Democrat "interviews" behind closed doors and lacking all transparency?

A simple answer will suffice.  TIA

Yeah.  Libtards are so used to being led they don't know an absurdly when they hear one. Just nod the head, don't think about it, go out and repeat it.

Just realized this was the wrong Trump thread.    There are so many.  

Either way, the question stands.

Want to bet. I looked it up. 

Of course the info came from some 4-star, former Secretary of State whose parents were both immigrants. He said 100k was a good number based on his experience 

So how much?

Digby’s life savings.

Point is still the same. Refugee admission is down to less than 1/5th what it was even post 9/11.

You weren't talking about refugees. Nice try.

If you are actually interested in better understanding why this move is so good, read THIS

The European powers really screwed up the middle east, and we will continue paying for their mistakes, well....mostly the people in the region will, for hundreds of years so long as we continue to try to prevent natural progression of this being "righted"

The current approach is not sustainable, the continued interference on our part does not help.....Trump is doing the right thing to fix this, even if it is not the correct political thing.....god motherfocking bless him......

I wasn't?  I actually was which is why I put the link to the numbers that I had looked up.  As I stated, I heard it from Colin Powell earlier in the day when he spoke at an event that I was at.

Don't expect PFB to take any responsibility. I still think he thought it was all immigration. I actually gave him the out by letting him know those were the refugee members. I was the first one to mention refugees. He's just playing CYA right now.

Of course. You wanted the immigration numbers to be that low. Anyhow, how many refugees should we be taking in?

Yup, this dude thinks he's above it all. He's always been that way. He should take the L and move on but, his ego would never let that happen. It's very clear what he meant, it also explains a lot.

He even gave them our bases!

 

CEYLANPINAR, Turkey — Russia said on Tuesday that its military units were patrolling territory in northern Syria vacated by the Americans following the withdrawal ordered by President Trump, underscoring the sudden loss of United States influence in the eight-year-old Syria war.

The Americans had until Monday maintained two military bases in the area, and Russia’s announcement signaled that Moscow, the Syrian government’s most important ally, was moving to fill a security void left by the withdrawal of both the American military and its partners in their effort to destroy the Islamic State and its Syrian base.

Videos circulating on social mediaappeared to show a Russian-speaking man filming himself walking around a recently evacuated United States military base in northern Syria, punctuating the message that the Russians were now in charge.

President Trump decided last week to abruptly yank American forces from a Kurdish enclave of northern Syria, ending a longstanding alliance with Syrian Kurdish fighters regarded by Turkey as terrorists. Turkey’s military then invaded, driving tens of thousands of civilians from their homes and forcing the Syrian Kurdish fighters to align themselves with the Syrian military in a stunning switch of allegiances for survival.

Can you please tell me when we had control of Syria I seem to has missed that.

He won't cause he can't. All I hear is that half the world hates the US for interfering, now the world hates the US for leaving the middle east to themselves.

Let them kill each other like they have been doing since the beginning of time. Nothing the US does will stop the hate over there.

The left does love to hate over here though. So we have our own problems.

Did anyone ever figure out the number of troops we pulled out of Syria?

Good point, I have not heard a number on the News, I found this on line. There are about 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria.

and the news doesn’t mention that Congress never authorized U.S. involvement in the Syrian civil war in the first place. Congress has the power to continue our involvement if they cared about Syria or the ME. Once again the American Public shows how stupid they really are.

Nancy Pelosi has the power to put us into Syria but she won’t.

Worms actually believe we controlled Syria with 2,000 troops.

Do we have any tallies on the number of dead Kurds since Trump pulled out our American soldiers?

I keep hearing that they were massacred. Surely there must be some hard numbers out there. 10? 1000? 1000000?

Also, why is the leader of the Kurds praising Trump now?

There are some complications with many of the broad statements.  The Turks are deeply suspicious of the Kurds, but as a rule they do not actually dislike them or hate them, its a little more complicated in that the feeling is a mix of uncertainty and curiosity, but it comes across as a sense of superiority....and this is really important, because the vast majority of Kurds do want some space for themselves, but not at the expense of others, however there are groups within the Kurds, bloody powerful ones, even though they are small that actively work as terrorists

So when you do hear about kills and deaths, they may or may not be related to these small groups, the turks know very well who and where they are, but its not just men....it includes women and children who also are only too happy to shoot or lob a grenade, the kurds themselves fear these groups. You might think these groups support kurdish political or strategic aims, but they really dont, they mostly offshoot crazies with flapping allegiance.....and we armed those fockers....

The leader of the Kurds is praising Trump because he knows only too well that the strong tend to dominate the weak, the average Kurd cannot stand up to these asshooles, and has no way of avoiding the consequences of their stupid actions, they are OK with allowing these idiots to be killed....

ABC News Apologizes For Airing Fake Bombing Video During Report on Syria

The video, aired on ABC’s World News Tonight, with anchor Tom Llamas’ claiming that the footage showed “Turkey’s military bombing Kurd civilians in a Syrian border town.” The video, however, was not from Syria as reported, but instead “a military gun demonstration in Kentucky that was published to YouTube in 2017,” according to Gizmodo.
