During a rant about the Middle East at a Wednesday night rally in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Donald Trump called President Obama the “founder of ISIS.”
“In many respects, you know, they honor President Obama. ISIS is honoring President Obama,” Trump said. “He’s the founder of ISIS. He founded ISIS. And I would say the co-founder would be Crooked Hillary Clinton.”
He made the comment after charging that Obama made a “mess” in the Middle East during his presidency.
Trump also went after Obama while defending an interview in which the Republican nominee appeared to forget that Russia invaded Crimea in 2014. Trump claimed that he knew about the annexation, and he placed blame for Russia’s invasion of the region on Obama, emphasizing the President’s middle name.
“This was taken during the administration of Barack Hussein Obama,” he said.
Trump supporters really are doofuses…
The Founder of ISIS…
You are the true founder of ISIS, Tovarishch Drumpf…Insane Sociopathic Ignorant Slobs. You should be involuntarily confined to a psychiatric institution before someone gets hurt, or worse.
It certainly is wrong and bad, I agree, to be the founder and leader and honoree of a pack of violent, ignorant, backward-looking, bigoted louts whose despairing inability to understand or make their way in the real, modern world makes them long to reestablish an imagined golden age through violence and the destruction of useful real-world institutions and norms. A person who brought such a movement about would have a lot to be ashamed of, assuming he were capable of it.
I see what you did here
Funny thing is, a cogent critique of the Obama Administration’s policy in the Middle East could be made by an actual presidential candidate. They made plenty of mistakes. It’s times like this I guess I’m happy the Republican candidate is a buffoon. Sort of.
