Carson Says 2 Words When Talking About Syrian Refugees That Have a few
Carson’s campaign deleted the tweet containing the map.
Asked whether he would sign such a measure, Carson said he hasn’t reviewed the details.
Ben Carson has falsely claimed that the US lacks a vetting system for Syrian refugees, rushing to join the growing xenophobic hysteria in the wake of last week’s terror attacks in Paris. “That’s why I’ve said I do not believe that someone who is invested in Sharia [law] would be an appropriate leader in America”.
On the same day that Mr Carson spoke, the US House of Representatives passed Republican-backed legislation to suspend Mr Obama’s programme to passed admit the 10,000 refugees in the next year.
The Times stands behind its article, noting that long-time Carson business manager Armstrong Williams recommended that their reporters contact Mr Clarridge.
While the Carson campaign acknowledged that Clarridge has had contact with the candidate, a spokeperson denied that he is a top adviser.
It would require the Federal Bureau of Investigation to conduct background checks on people coming to the US from those countries. “He’s not ideal, he will be flawless but he continues to surround himself with people who will enhance his foreign policy credentials”.
He also asserted – incorrectly, according to most experts – that Chinese forces were involved in the Syrian conflict. Wasting no time he told the crowd of his nontraditional route to the political trail and his desire to return the country to greatness. “I guess he just froze”. Carson said the calls that he would make would include officials in Yemen, Oman, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia.
“We have to target and defeat and time is of the essence”, Clinton said. We were not coordinating our efforts so you didn’t have to be all that great.
Yet in the Bloomberg interview, speaking for Carson appears to be exactly what Williams was doing.
Earlier this year, Vox assembled more than two dozen “hilariously bad maps” from various media (including Vox), and this summer Huffington Post comedy writer Aaron Nemo had a few fun drawing a map of how Donald Trump sees the globe. In turn, The Times pointed out that Carson’s own team had touted Clarridge as a foreign-policy hand.
“We’re going to have to – We’re going to have to look at a lot of things very closely”, he replied.
Trump and Carson are neck-and-neck in national and Iowa polls.
So perhaps it’s not surprising that when it comes to inside-the-campaign turmoil the old rules aren’t applicable here, either.
