Wolf Blitzer Wonders If ISIS Is Going to Respond to Donald Trump
Mediaite ^ | 12/7/15 | Josh Feldman

Posted on 12/07/2015 5:35:55 PM PST by markomalley

Wolf Blitzer asked kind of an odd question on CNN late this afternoon regarding whether ISIS will respond to Donald Trump‘s proposal for a Muslim entry ban.

Trump today called for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States” and apparently that potentially applies to American Muslims traveling abroad as well. Naturally, this got widespread condemnation.

But on CNN earlier, Blitzer asked CNN national security analyst Peter Bergen, “How’s ISIS likely to respond to a statement like this from Donald Trump?”

Bergen said, “I just don’t know. They may not.”

(video at link)

He continued, “I mean, for them, the American political race is maybe not front and center.”

Watch above, via CNN.

ISIS respond to Donald Trump. Now that would be a good one. I don’t think Trump cares what ISIS thinks. He’d wipe them off the face of the planet, quickly and efficiently.

Typical leftist.

December 7. These guys after Pearl Harbor would be on the TV saying they are worried about Shintoism backlash, wondering why they hate us.

If ISIS responds, I predict Trump goes up another 10 points.

Trump is the only one with the balls to say what Americans are thinking.

Reading this headline made me pray for Trump’s safety.

He has put a target on his back by saying what needs to be done to protect all of us.

The fake backlash shows that our current leaders have no courage.

Trump already has dissed the Mexican druglord.

Now he has taken on the Muslim world.

A man this courageous deserves to be President.

If they do, it will be OPPOSED.

Is that the same side these people want to be on?

How does ISIS ever respond?

Wolf just advocated for Trump to be killed.

However, it’s REALLY interesting that Wolfie uses ISIS to indicate Islam.

Ah,yes Wolfie, ISIS is going to respond to Trump’s statement about stopping all incoming Muslims to the land of Great American Devil but Pres. Affirmative Action plan for destroying ISIS is ignored. Methinks ISIS knows only one of those plans will come to fruition and the author of that plan is not Kenyan born.

Hey Wolfie.....if American Muslims were 1/10 as outraged after San Bern as they are over Trump today

But they’re not. So what should that tell you, even an imbecile like you?

It sounds like Wolf Blitzer was trying to incite the Muslims to violently to attack Donald Trump.
