Geert Wilders explains why his election should scare the EU

The Netherlands has just elected Geert Wilders, who is the leader of the Party for Freedom and ran on a platform of halting mass immigration.

Wilders won 35 seats in the Dutch Senate, which means he will build the next government and be the next prime minister.

Referred to often by the media as the “Dutch Trump,” Wilders is one of the most staunchly anti-immigration, anti-radical-Islam politicians in all of Europe.

“Brussels wants to inundate us with third world immigrants, mostly from Islamic countries. It wants to distribute these immigrants all over the European Union, and that, my friends, will be a disaster,” Wilders said in a recent speech.

A ban on mosques, Islamic schools, Qurans, and headscarves in government buildings are among the proposals in his PVV manifesto.

Wilders also wants to stop arming Ukraine and believes the Netherlands needs its own weapons to defend its own country.

While the media and the left across the globe are outraged by Wilders’ election, Dave Rubin doesn’t see it the same way.

“Do you think he just became prime minister because he’s racist, because ultimately the people of the Netherlands are racist? Or is it because they have also been overrun and they are dealing with the same stuff that you’re seeing out of London and New York City and elsewhere and they want borders?” Rubin says, answering his own question.

“They have had enough,” he continues, “with people coming into their country who don’t care about their country or would gladly upend their country, and they would like their country back.”
