According to Today's Open Border Dems Obama Must Be a Racist for Insisting Asylum Claims Be Limited

Obama: Economic situation is not grounds for asylum!

When Trump says this he's a racist. So....

Daily Caller OBAMA: “[U]nder U.S. law, we admit a certain number of refugees from all around the world based on some fairly narrow criteria. And typically, refugee status is not granted just based on economic need or because a family lives in a bad neighborhood or poverty. It’s typically defined fairly narrowly — the state, for example, that was targeting political activists and they need to get out of the country for fear of prosecution or even death,” Obama said in July 2014.

The Democratic president even called on asylum seekers to lodge their claims in their own countries.

“There may be some narrow circumstances in which there is a humanitarian or a refugee status that a family might be eligible for. If that were the case, it would be better for them to be able to apply in-country rather than take a very dangerous journey all the way up to Texas to make those same claims,” he said at the time.

Obama’s comments were made during a joint meeting at the White House with the presidents of Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.

Obama the racist!
