Obama 2014: "Poverty and crime are not sufficient legal reasons for granting asylum."


...new video of former President Barack Obama from five years ago shows just how far Democrats' goal posts have moved.

Speaking in 2014, Obama said that poverty and crime are not sufficient legal reasons for granting asylum.

"Under U.S. law, we admit a certain number of refugees from all around the world based on some fairly narrow criteria. And, typically, refugees status is not granted just based on economic need or because a family lives in a bad neighborhood, or poverty," Obama said.
