Trump on Brussels Attack I Would Close Up Our Borders to People Until We Figure Out What Is Going On
Breitbart ^ | 22 Mar 2016 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 03/22/2016 6:44:52 AM PDT by detective

Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump reacted to the apparent terrorist attack that resulted in at least 28 dead and 130 injured in Brussels earlier in the day.

Trump made the case to close the U.S. borders until “we figure out what is going on.”

There is no such implication.

I was a Cruz supporter until his lying started in earnest.

What is crazy about getting out of NATO? NATO’s main goal these days seems to be importing as many “refugees” as they can. Belgium & Germany have been in the forefront of importing terrorists into Europe.

We can do without “allies” such as Belgium, Germany & Turkey. Their goal is to Islamicize the West.

NATO has been worthless ever since its massacre of the Serbs.

Meanwhile, the commie POTUS is tucking it up with the Cuban terrorists at a baseball game. Priorities.

Your definition of the word ‘until’ must be quite different than most dictionaries.

Well, until can be a very long time.

“You’re grounded until...”!

Absolutely not! But if you can’t see that that is pandering to a particular group, Mormons, then it is because you don’t want to see it!

Everyone affected deserved prayer equally, not “especially” Mormons! And not today of all days when they are voting in Utah, and on a Mormons radio show!

OK, but what, exactly, does Trump mean when he says, “until we figure out what is going on”?


Well, our experts in government and media seem to have not been able to figure out whats going on for about 15 years.

So I guess Trump is talking about shutting down the border and uncontrolled immigration for at least 15 years.

Works for me.

And you should know dumb by your assumption that he said that as a fact in your depiction. Your disingenuous implication is stunning when we know the whole issue of closing the borders is on the specific point of illegal immigrants using it for a super-highway to our taxpayer funded benefits in addition to an easy pass-through for the drug running as well. Trying to conflate it as anything more is “just dumb”.

Close them completely until we hunt down the terrorists among us.

Don’t know if you around when NATO was formed, but its more or less a buffer zone used to keep anything less than global conflagration away from our shores and let Europe soak up the punches. We probably pay the lion’s share, but we also are for the most part the controlling authority.

Do you know the US budget for NATO? I do not and unless its way up there its still a bargain.

We would do better and save more by cutting foreign aid to countries that are not our friends or do not enable us to increase our security.

NATO was formed at the height of the Cold War and now for the most part is a anachronism that is outdated.

Whoever thought that after 70 years we would still have troops in Europe, especially after the Wall fell and the Cold War was over.

What has happened is that Europe was perfectly happy to have U.S. Troops and technology protect them while they got extremely complacent and let their own military capabilities go soft and almost non-existent. Of course the money they saved on Defense they spent lavishly on their Socialism, which has now failed.

So I agree with Trump, we need to bring the troops home, close the bases and let Europe deal with their own problems as we need to deal ours. These actions will force the Europeans to either stand up and fight for the culture’s or die a slow death from their unrestricted immigration policies they promulgated.

Wow, quite the irrational response there, tiger. You sure you're okay?

I ask that because you apparently missed the word "if" with which I led off my initial statement. I specifically said "if" because of kneejerk knuckleheads, and I wanted to be clear that my criticism would apply only "if" the report of what he said was accurate.

If. It's only two letters, so I didn't think it would be that hard for someone to comprehend what I was saying. Apparently, it's a less well known word than I had assumed it to be.

Repeat 6th grade, then get back to me.

He doesn’t appear able to connect the right dots. Not good in a president.

In that regard, Ted Cruz has the exact same problem 0bama has.
