Ivanka defies Trump and says US must admit Syrian refugees Breaking News Today Check The Source Here: https://goo.gl/xXLBCR Now Ivanka Trump says the US must admit Syrian refugees â?? after her father warned for a year that they are the 'all-time great Trojan horse' . Ivanka Trump has put an ocean's worth of daylight between herself and her powerful father, saying in an interview broadcast Wednesday that the United States must open its doors to refugees fleeing war-torn Syria. 'That has to be part of the discussion, but thatâ??s not going to be enough in it of itself,' the first daughter told NBC's 'Today' show during her visit to Germany. 'I think there is a global humanitarian crises that is happening, and we have to come together and we have to solve it,' she declared. That marks a dramatic shift from President Donald Trump's own fearful rhetoric about the fate of Syrians displaced from their homeland. Trump famously warned that ISIS terrorists embedding themselves in large populations of Syrian refugees could represent 'the all-time great Trojan horse' for the United States. His first stab at enforcing a country-specific ban on some travelers entering the U.S. included a blanket prohibition against admitting Syrians. After a judge blocked that effort, the White House released a second version that aimed to pause the entire U.S. refugee resettlement program rather than single Syrians out for discrimination. The president has also advocated for nations in the region to create a protected 'safe zone' inside Syria's borders where refugees can live until the end of the vicious civil war that has raged since 2011. 'We have a president that wants to take hundreds of thousands â?? hundreds and thousands! â?? of people and move them into our country,' Trump told a Tennessee crowd in 2015, speaking of the Syrian migration. 'And we don't even know who they are. There's no paperwork. There's no anything. ... We have no documentation on these people.' 'They seem like so many men. They're so strong. They're strong looking guys,' Trump said of news photos showing a sea of humanity fleeing to the north through Turkey and into Europe. 'So I said, "Why aren't they back fighting for their country?"' he told an audience of about 10,000. 'Then I say, "Is this a Trojan Horse?" We all know the story of the Trojan Horse.' The Trojan Horse comparison made one appearance after another during the following year. Two months before Election Day he told a conference of evangelican Christian voters that he wanted to establish 'safe zones' in lieu of continuing to resettle Syrians in the U.S. 'We want to take care of people, but we absolutely cannot allow this potential tremendous threat to continue, and we have to stop this,' he said. 'This is going to be potentially a catastrophe for our country. It's from within. It could be the all-time great Trojan Horse.' A month later during a presidential debate, Trump said that his opponent Hillary Clinton's plan to increase Syrian refugee intakes by 550 per cent would pose a unique danger to the United States. 'This is going to be the great Trojan Horse of all time,' he announced from the debate stage in St. Louis, Missouri. 'We have enough problems in this country. I believe in building safe zones. I believe in having other people pay for them. As an example, the Gulf states who are not carrying their weight.' According to two White House sources, Trump still remains unwilling to reopen the floodgates on compassionate grounds, despite taking military action after Bashar al-Assad's government deployed chemical weapons against Syrian civilians. Eric Trump, one of the president's two businessman sons, said afterward in an interview with the Daily Telegraph that his sister Ivanka had influenced their father to give the Pentagon a green-light. 'Ivanka is a mother of three kids and she has influence,' Eric said. 'I'm sure she said: "Listen, this is horrible stuff".' Tuesday in Germany, Ivanka called her brother's take 'a flawed interpretation' of how the president decided to launch missiles at a Syrian air base.
