So let\u2019s look at the reality there. President Obama has said he\u2019d like to get 10,000 Syrian refugees in here by the end of September this year. Yes, Hillary Clinton has talked about increasing that substantially to 65,000 people being brought in in the near term. Still, that is not hundreds of thousands of people out there. And more importantly, she has said that none of these people should come in without the most stringent screening and vetting process. Now granted there are security analysts who say it\u2019s very hard to have an infallible system and especially hard when you talk about Syria where the civil war makes checking the backgrounds of people very, very, difficult. That said if you look at his overall claim: hundreds of thousands, no checking whatsoever, that is simply false.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But as Hahn noted, CNN\u2019s\u00a0fact check report\u00a0was\u00a0wrong, writing, \u201cForeman distorts Trump\u2019s statement to change its meaning. Trump did not say that Clinton would admit hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees. Rather, Trump said that under Clinton\u2019s plan the U.S. \u2018would admit hundreds of thousands of refugees from the most dangerous countries on Earth.\u2019 [emphasis added].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrump made clear that these were refugees coming from multiple \u201ccountries\u201d\u2014 i.e. plural\u2014 not just Syria,\u201d Hahn added.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s criticism of CNN comes on the same day the network <a href=\"http:\/\/www.politico.com\/blogs\/on-media\/2016\/06\/corey-lewandowski-to-join-cnn-224733\" target=\"_blank\">announced<\/a> it hired his former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski as a political commentator.
