    WATCH: Trump Skewers Smug Europeans to Their Faces, Reveals How He’s Stopping Illegal Immigration

    Speaking to the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos alongside members of his administration, President Donald Trump skewered the smug Europeans who have done so much to denigrate his administration, explaining as part of that speech how he has cracked down on illegal immigration and why they must do the same.

    Beginning, the president commented on how he is cutting off funding for sanctuary cities, saying, “Cutting illegal aliens off welfare and other government benefits, and I have directed that, starting immediately, there will be no more payments to sanctuary cities, because they are really just sanctuaries for criminals.”

    Explaining why they need to be cut off, commenting as he did so on how he is defeating crime in America. He said, “They’re really protecting criminals, and those are the ones we have to get out of the country, murderers, drug dealers, the mentally insane. They emptied their mental institutions into the United States. And despite that, we have the lowest crime numbers that we’ve ever had in the history of the country. Just came out.”

    Then, joking about Somali fraudsters being pirates and higher IQ than he expected, the president said, “But equally importantly, we’re cracking down on more than $19 billion in fraud that was stolen by Somalian bandits. Can you believe that Somalian they turned out to be higher IQ than we thought? I always say these are low IQ people. How do they go into Minnesota and steal all that money? And we have, you know, they’re pirates. They’re good pirates, right? But we shoot them out of the water, just like we shoot the drug boats out. They’re not pirating too many boats lately. Do you notice when they go out into those boats, they want to take over a billion-and-a-half-dollar tanker loaded up with oil, and they say, we’re going to blow up your boat. They have powerful weapons. You hit the side of the boat. You blow the whole thing up. The insurance companies are petrified, so they say, just give them the boat. We’ll give them money instead. And I don’t do that. We blow them right the hell out of the water. We see them going out. We blow them out of the water. We don’t have any pirates so much anymore.”

    Later on in the speech, the president commented on how the Europeans have turned their world unrecognizable by importing so many migrants, saying, “Let me tell you, certain places in Europe are not even recognizable, frankly, anymore. They’re not recognizable. And we can argue about it, but there’s no argument friends come back from different places.”

    Continuing on that point and noting how the Europeans have replaced themselves by importing vast numbers of incompatible migrants, the president said, “I don’t want to insult anybody and say I don’t recognize it, and that’s not in a positive way that’s in a very negative way. And I love Europe, and I want to see Europe go good, but it’s not heading in the right direction.”

    He further said, digging into that, “In recent decades, it became conventional wisdom in Washington and European capitals that the only way to grow a modern Western economy was through ever increasing government spending, unchecked mass migration and endless foreign imports, the consensus was that so called Dirty Jobs and heavy industries should be sent elsewhere, that affordable energy should be replaced by the green new scam, and that countries could be propped up by importing new and entirely different populations from far away lands.”

    And, adding yet further to that and calling out their smug technocrats for being wrong about everything, the president said, “Quite frankly, many parts of our world are being destroyed before our very eyes, and the leaders don’t even understand what is happening, and the ones that do understand aren’t doing anything about it. Virtually all of the so called experts predicted my plans to end this failed model would trigger a global recession and runaway inflation, but we have proven them wrong. It’s actually just the opposite.”
