“On 1/20 - the day Trump was inaugurated - an estimated 35,000 ISIS fighters held approx 17,500 square miles of territory in both Iraq and Syria. As of 12/21, the U.S. military est the remaining 1,000 or so fighters occupy roughly 1,900 square miles..”

Not a fair comparison. Trump should compare to when Obama took office and ISIS held no land. ISIS made all of its gains under Obama.

1,000 people spread over 1,900 square miles is pretty sparse population density. How are they even managing to hold that much land?

1 person per 2 square miles sounds more like hiding than holding.
