Yes, god forbid we'd have some humanity.

And I didn't notice America picking up its share of the refugees from countries where America wages war before this EO so I'm not really sure what you're getting at.

The previous world war caused millions of people to be uprooted from their homes and to depend on the charity and hospitality of places that did not 'share their values' and yet it worked out fine in the long run.

You need only look at the banlieues of Paris, full of second and third generation Middle Easterners who hate France and hate French values to prove my point.

Those are not representative of Europe or even of France.

And you could even doubt to what extent the situation there is accurately described by the word 'full', plenty of people there do not hate France and do not hate the French (if only because they are French themselves...).

He wasn't claiming they were, he was saying they are representative of themselves. Do you disagree?

Nah, he was claiming that proves his "point", which includes "Europeans feeling foolish", as if that monolith exists anywhere but around synapses that use crayons; do you disagree?

Is Algeria in the Middle East?

And what a great country it is. Causing in war in Iraq, Afghanistan, supporting the civil war in Syria and then leaving it to Europe to deal with the refugees.

I guess you must be really proud of your country now.

One of the reasons Trump is popular is that there's a belief he'll prioritize American interests and refrain from waging extraneous wars on behalf of global interests.

The proxy war in Syria is ridiculous. Having a president who isn't interested in antagonizing Russia is good.

European here. I am extremely proud of every single refugee we have taken into our countries.

I don't feel foolish, I feel like a decent human being. How about you? You feel smart with Trump and his 'alternative facts' being in charge? :)

> having taken in millions of refugees

The IOM and UNHCR estimates say that Europe took 1M refugees and migrants until December 2015. That's the highest it has received in a year. So, the claim of "MillionS" of refugees is a pure exaggeration.
