Featured Trump: "Obama is the Founder of ISIS"

What do you mean, without Obama's and Hillary's HELP??!! Obama FOUNDED ISIS.

He didn't help them, he CREATED THEM.

Own what your hero said.

 

He said exactly what he meant. He was given a chance to backtrack on Hugh Hewitt and he didn't. He tripled down on what he said.

This guy is supposed to be a master negotiator, yet he goes around saying things that he doesn't mean? He is plagued by a poor use of words? He says things that "we know what he really means" (wink, wink).

Get real. He's an idiot.

 

Nice try. Given an excellent opportunity to clarify his statements on the Hugh Hewitt show, Trump doubled and tripled down on it being a serious statement, not sarcasm.

 

Oh, the amount of rationalization that Christians will engage in to defend Trump.

ORLANDO, Fla. — After days of alleging repeatedly that President Barack Obama literally founded the Islamic State group, Donald Trump abruptly shifted tone on Friday and insisted his widely debunked claim had been sarcastic.

Trump, in an early-morning post on Twitter, blamed CNN for reporting "so seriously" that he had called Obama and Democrat Hillary Clinton the extremist group's founder and most valuable player. He added, in all capital letters: "THEY DON'T GET SARCASM?"

Only hours before, the billionaire businessman had restated the allegation with no mention of sarcasm, telling rally-goers in Kissimmee, Florida, that "I've been saying that Barack Obama is the founder." It's a claim that Trump repeated at least a dozen times in three cities since debuting the attack-line Wednesday during a rally outside Fort Lauderdale.

In fact, Trump had refused to clarify that he was being rhetorical or sarcastic when asked about the remark during interviews. On Tuesday, when conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt tried to steer Trump toward explaining he really meant Obama's Mideast policies created conditions that IS exploited, Trump wanted none of it.

"No, I meant he's the founder of ISIS. I do," Trump said, using another acronym for the extremist group. Told that Obama was trying to defeat the militants, Trump added, "I don't care. He was the founder."

No, once he saw that he was getting beat up by the media, by the Dems, even by the GOP, and by the general public, then he changes his tune and tries to save face. He has a pattern of doing this.

 

Ya, thanks. I'm delusional.
