Are you truly that massively stupid and simple-minded? Do you think banks approve loans based on who is creditworthy or who is poor? They lend money when they perceive the risk of non-repayment to be low and the level of return to their shareholders to be high. That's not socialism, you ignorant fuck. Banks exist to make business decisions, not charitable disbursements. (While they do donate to local charities, that's not their primary mission or how they earn money in the first place.) I can't believe I even have to explain this to your ignorant ass.
Did you even watch the OP's video? Trump was referring to making the oil-rich Persian Gulf states cough up the money to host Syrian refugee camps, so the refugees don't have to flee here. That makes eminent sense. Or would you rather have us pick up the tab?
Since you claim to be a veteran, did you serve in Desert Storm? Are you aware that Bush Sr. arranged for Kuwait and Saudi Arabia to reimburse the U.S. Treasury for the full costs of that war back in 1991? Did that make Bush Sr. some kind of socialist redistributionist? Or was it appropriate repayment to the countries that liberated Kuwait and reversed Saddam Hussein's predations?
You are one of the dumbest fuckheads on this board, right up there with ekim the chimp and the OP.
