Trump Just Made This Major Accusation Against the White House About Syrian Refugees
By Christopher Snyder. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is accusing President Barack Obama of making it easier for Muslims rather than Christians to enter the U.S. in the midst of the Syrian civil war.
“If you were Muslim from Syria, you can get into this country … if you were a Christian from Syria it was almost impossible to get in and yet the Christians were having their heads cut off,” Trump told a crowd Wednesday in Worcester, Mass. “It’s the most unfair thing, this is during the Obama administration … what’s wrong with us?”
The businessman, though, did admit the challenge of proving the religion of those claiming refugee status. “Well I don’t know if you can prove they are Christian, first of all I happen to be Christian, I’m protestant, and I would love to do that, but how are they proving that.”
Obama blasted the idea of admitting people solely based on their religion.
“When I hear folks say well maybe we should just admit Christians but not Muslims, when I hear political leaders suggesting religious test for which person who’s fleeing from a war-torn country is admitted … that’s not who we are. We don’t have religious tests to our compassion,” he said at a press conference Monday. (Read more from “Trump Just Made This Major Accusation Against the White House About Syrian Refugees” HERE)
