Fact-Check: Yes, Hillary Clinton Wants a 550% Increase in Syrian Refugees in U.S.

During Wednesday night’s presidential debate, Republican nominee Donald Trump asserted that his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton wants a 550% increase in the number of Syrian refugees entering the United States.

Fact-check: TRUE

In response to a question from moderator Chris Wallace about a private speech Clinton gave in which she said she favored “open borders,” Clinton condemned Wikileaks as an ally of Russia. Trump dismissed this as a distraction from the original question.

“She wants open borders… people are going to come in from Syria,” he argued. “He wants 550% more people than Barack Obama and he has thousands and thousands of people and they have no idea where they come from.”
