Replying to @realDonaldTrump

Bush created ISIS.
Kurds and Obama beat them.
Trump brought them back.

In 2010 Al Qaeda in Iraq (AIQ), was established by Iraqi-born Ibrahim Awad Ibrahim al-Badry, who goes by the nom de guerre Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who self-proclaimed himself to be the caliph of the Islamic world. He renamed AIQ renamed it to ISIS in 2013. Obama referred to ISIS as the JV team and basically ignored them. He did not defeat them, otherwise, if he had there would have been no need for the U.S. to engage with Russia & Syria to eliminate them and take back swaths of territory they had captured and occupied.
