Donald J. Trump tried to quash the latest controversy engulfing his campaign, suggesting on Friday that he was not serious when he said that President Obama and Hillary Clinton were the “founders” of the Islamic State terrorist group.
After making the suggestion at a rally on Wednesday night, Mr. Trump doubled-down on the assertion on Thursday, insisting in multiple interviews that he really did mean it when he said that the president and Mrs. Clinton were responsible for ISIS. But in an early-morning Twitter post, Mr. Trump said that he was just being sarcastic.

Just try making clothes in the US today. You'll be out of pocket a fortune - but doing meaningful charity work for poor, underprivileged illegal aliens and the Armenian mafia.
I support Trump; if he only does 15% of what he claims I’ll be happy, but this latest ISIS talk/double down/sarcasm stuff is starting to venture into the absurd.
Perhaps triangulation, but at what costs?
As my grand pappy used to say: “That Wolf Blitzer is dumber than the third squirt of goose shit.”
When Obama pulled ALL of our troops out of Iraq, he LEFT all of our troops equipment, the very latest Tanks, vehicles, arms etc. Obama not only founded ISIS, but equipped them too.
OMG! Where did you find that screencapture?
Duh....is probably an even closer call.
I think he must be. Because this keeps happening over and over. It’s like he is orchestrating events, and people don’t even know they are being orchestrated.
Obama is on YouTube, back in the beginning as saying he was ‘training ISIS”
Get this an other links out to Trumps campaign - and on every forum, social media, real media your email folks etc and ask them to do the same. It could, in just days, reach MILLIONS
in Obama’s own words - he ‘trained ISIS’

gave them - made it possible - for ISIS to get 2,300 of our Humvees - all planned - AND the pickup trucks AND ‘accidentally” dropping massive amount of munitions in the wrong place - the hands of ISIS .

After double crossed some of the ‘rebels’ tghey attacked Benghazi - When she found out, did she make the decsion to demand all sides ‘STAND DOWN’ - deciding if those people -over 80 of them - all died- they couldn’t tell about the ‘movement of weapons’ - Hillary’s gun running...
Some brave men finally realized no help was likely so they overrode the stand-down order - and they saved all lives but 4 - with the HELP of former troops of Qaddafi, who came and got the people out -

The issue of Obama and Hillary allowing terrorism to fester is out there now, front and center. Trump’s plan worked.
Admittedly, the confused Neocons in the Bush Administration started the "bull in a china shop approach" to the afflicted area, in the Near East by proclaiming a cultural attack. I am not suggesting Obama is the only miscreant involved.
For a different view of how to fight terrorism (mine), immediately after 9/11, see The War On Terror.
Rent Free, 24-7, inside their empty skulls...
It IS entertaining, isn’t it?
That’s why Trump was mocking CNN this morning...they actually “fact-checked” his comment about Obama.
Don’t miss the real beauty, here:
o - Trump’s claim that he was being sarcastic doesn’t erase what he said before; that still has liberals’ knickers in a twist.
o - The claim to sarcasm will doubtless be second-guessed, and those second guesses will, in turn, be second-guessed — “Wait. Was he really being sarcastic then, or is THIS the actual sarcasm, right here? Which way is up?”
Trump is partying rent-free in these peoples’ heads 24/7/365, causing them massive mental whiplash, and there’s no cabal more deserving of it.
“Everybody uses hyperbole during their life and their conversations.”
Exactly.
A) This isn’t hyperbole; it borders on recklessness and at a critical moment.
B) ‘Everybody’ isn’t running for president and at this most tenuous moment in the (formerly) Free Republic.
C) ‘Everybody’ doesn’t use hyperbole publicly and then double down and the next day say ‘ha ha - fooled you’.
This is really friggin serious and dangerous.
We’ll see if he continues this ‘strategy.’
Oh my, a concern troll!
