Clinton Campaign Walks Back Her Claim That Trump Was Featured in ISIS Recruitment Videos

In Saturday night's 3rd Democratic debate, Hillary Clinton sought to emphasize her line that Donald Trump has become "ISIS's best recruiter" by suggesting that the extremist group was using Trump in their recruiting videos, a claim which has now been widely discredited by fact-checkers and ISIS experts, and which prompted Trump to call Clinton a liar on the Sunday morning talk-show circuit.

As a result, Sunday morning also saw Clinton campaign manager John Podesta and spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri work to walk Clinton's statement back. Appearing on ABC's This Week, Palmieri said that Clinton "didn't have a particular video in mind"

I figured she’s respond with “I demand an apology for calling me a liar”. I would hope we would see the definition of doubling down from Trump at that point.

She is trying to get ahead of the excrement-storm that is coming when Trump and Rush take off on the fact that her own husband is featured in an ISIS recruiting video.

I was not aware of that video. We want to see it.

McAinal has been helping Isis since he was pictured with some Isis leaders.

His girl friend just dropped out the presidential race. Of course he was only in the race in his mind and McAinals.

I think you are right.

With all the tens of millions watching.

These debates should be ended. They allow candidates to lie before tens of millions who will never see the refutation of the lie because they do not follow the news closely, just the trendy hot events. Democrats have been using this trick for years.

Exactly. They do this at every debate at which they are included. Sometimes the moderators, sometimes the candidates. They are using the mass-audience power of the debates to spread lies that can never be properly refuted.

Is the New York Times pushing for Hillary to ‘apologize’?

If not, why not? (of course all of us know why they would never ask that of Hillary....)

‘’A & E has a show on tonight called “Who is Donald Trump?”’’

I think I saw this about a week ago and it didn’t suck.

I saw another Trump documentary made in 2011 narrated by J.K. Simmons and it was very good. He wasn’t a candidate then.

They had that so called Republican Strategist and Palin hating Doud and a nutcase Journalist from Rolling Stone (I think) doing Psychoanalysis on Trump.

It had some good points, so I’ll give it a 50/50 score.

Lots of “feeling” and some fact. Trump is insecure you know because he needed Daddy’s approval, or something. LOL

OK... I didn’t see that one. The one I saw had no Doud or Rolling Stone people in it. Now that I know that, I’ll not watch when it’s aired.

Probably not, because Trump is a public figure, but I don’t know that for certain.
