Donald Trump, candidate for the Republican candidacy in the face of next year’s presidential elections, He joined the signs of repudiation towards the sympathizers of the Hamas terrorist group and assured that, if he became president of the nation again, he would reject refugees from countries that support Islamic extremists.
While participating in a campaign rally in Clive, Iowa, the 77-year-old Republican spoke about the escalation of violence in the Middle East after the terrorist group Hamas bombed Israel.
As a campaign proposal, he promised to reinvigorate an initiative that prohibits travelers from Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States.
However, the highest points of his speech were directed at the issue of solidarity with people seeking refuge, since He completely ruled out supporting citizens of countries considered a threat to the nation.
“We will not bring anyone from Gaza, Syria, Somalia, Yemen, Libya or any other place that threatens our security,” he emphasized.
Trump’s proposal also includes the possible expulsion of foreign residents who are proven to be sympathizers “with terrorists and radical Islamic extremists,” regardless of how long they have been living in the American Union.
“We will implement strong ideological control for all immigrants in the United States. Besides, We will aggressively deport resident foreigners with jihadist sympathies“, he expressed.
It should be noted that The position adopted by the former president is similar to that previously announced by Ron DeSantishis closest Republican opponent in the poll results where the New York millionaire surpasses him by about 40 points.
The governor of Florida mentioned that the United States should not accept those fleeing Gaza, as they could represent a risk to national security.
“The United States should not absorb any of them. Not everyone is a member of Hamas, most probably aren’t, but they chose Hamas.
I think that if we imported a large number of them to the United States, anti-Semitism in this country would increase,” he warned.
