Kellyanne Conway is apparently pulling a page from the Borat playbook:

I'll pour out a Rolling Rock to that.

The math is questionable/wrong but it's hilarious.

Yeah, there's about, what, 5 Million refugees?
At the very least, it'd be a 1 in 5 million chance, but it's probably somewhere in the high thousands, if we're being honest about people and violence.

it's funny you know, no one ever talks about not doing or stopping things that cause refugees...

That's because the only thing that might stop refugees would be total invasion of Iraq and Syria.
If we did that, Russia might pull out, which would address the whole bombing civilians thing, but it's more likely we'd end up in a completely FUBAR'd war with ISIS on one side and Russia/Assad on the other.
So, it'd look about the same as it does now, just with a bunch of dead Americans to top it off.

Yeah, I mean, it's our fault this is happening in the first place.
But, there's no way the public would accept doing that shit again, either. :idk:
Not unless ISIS set off a nuke, or something.

To stop refugees (from Syria, not in general, obviously), you'd have to stop the war there.
To stop the war there you'd have to:
1) Get Russia to back off
2) Invade Syria and Iraq with troops
3) Defeat ISIS
4) Replace the Assad regime (now, back to #1) with either a democratic or controllable dictatorship

Since #1 is unlikely because of #4, the whole thing would just turn into Gulf War II on steroids.

I'm pretty sure the Gulf War was completely different.

Aside from the fact that 2) would put us in yet another unwinnable, protracted nightmare in the Middle East, it would also almost inevitably violate the #1 rule of the modern world - nuclear superpowers do NOT shoot at each other.

See! I knew there was a way out. Well done, gentlemen.
Yeah, WTF, why not? We'll ask Vladimir to nuke 'em, and then Trump can waterboard any survivors.
