“Mr. Trump emphasized to President el-Sisi his high regard for peace-loving Muslims and understands that every day there are people of goodwill that sacrifice their lives and fortunes to combat the growing threat of radical Islamic terrorism.”
Trump also reportedly said that if he wins in November, the Egyptian president can expect an invitation for an official visit to the US.
Top advisers Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Alabama) and retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn joined the mogul for his bilateral meeting.

Absolutely Presidential!
President Trump.
Nevertheless, Gen al Sisi proceeded to smash the M/B and throw them out of Egyptian politics....he vowed to rebuild the 65 Christian churches the M/B had savagely torched.
=============================================
It should be remembered that while Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood were ruling Egypt, Obama and Hillary showered them with praise and provided billions of dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes. Egypt has unceremoniously thrown the Muslim Brotherhood out of Egyptian politics.... and hasn’t forgotten the support offered to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Egypt under al-Sisi has now charged Obama and Hillary Clinton for conspiring and collaborating with the M/B and advancing their terrorist activities.
Looks like Hillary can check-off Egypt as NOT a partner in her sap-happy foreign policy ally list.
==============================================
POINT TO PONDER The Clinton Foundation employee, Gehad al Haddad, who was also a Muslim Brotherhood activist AT THE SAME TIME has been jailed by the Egyptian govt. (reported by H/T Western Journalism).
Gehad means jihad in Farsi.
=======================================
AS FREEPER CLAUD POSTED---- I don’t follow Egyptian politics, but it was no secret Morsi et al. had no love for the Copts. Then when I saw al-Sisi visit a Coptic Church in Cairo to huge cheers, his kindness and graciousness to the Christians there and to the Patriarch (to whom he apologized profusely for interrupting prayers), that told me all I needed to know about Obama’s Egypt policy. It is unfathomable how utterly, completely, perversely wrong our government was in Egypt. Obama is a loathsome human being.
COMMENTS---Pres al-Sisi is one of the world's master strategists......bold, decisive and unerring. He received his master's degree at a Pennsylvania War College in Carlisle PA, in 2006.

Trump already gaining momentum for his Presidency.
Hillary. Not so much.
I hate to be overly optimistic, but does anyone get the feeling that Trump already knows it’s in the bag?

He expressed great respect for Egypt's history and the important leadership role it has played in the Middle East.
Mr. Trump expressed to President el-Sisi his strong support for Egypt's war on terrorism, and how under a Trump Administration, the United States of America will be a loyal friend, not simply an ally, that Egypt can count on in the days and years ahead.

Mr. Trump emphasized to President el-Sisi his high regard for peace-loving Muslims and understands that every day there are people of goodwill that sacrifice their lives and fortunes to combat the growing threat of radical Islamic terrorism.
Mr. Trump said that if he were fortunate enough to win the election in November, he would invite President el-Sisi on an official visit to the United States and would be honored to visit Egypt and the Egyptian people who he has a great fondness for.
Mr. Trump, and his wife, knew on the outset that if he ran, he would win this.
Looking for a “ray of hope” this morning and will take heart in this thread.
IIRC, Melania asserted that if her husband ran, he would win!!
President Donald Trump already laying the groundwork for diplomatic relations!!!
I wonder if we will see Sessions and Flynn in the Trump cabinet. State and Defense?
It is not in the bag.The Democrats can still steal it. Never count a Democrat out until the last dog is hung. Many have learned this lesson to their sorrow. And after the election if Trump wins, the main battle has just begun. The Democrats will try to win through the Courts what they failed to win at the ballot box.

the common enemy: Muslim Brotherhood
Decline of 1.3% in the L.A. Times tracking poll, along with her “regaining momentum” in the NBC Survey Monkey poll that puts up by 5 points (last week, it was down to 2 points).
Another thread on a site elsewhere, is discussing how polls out this morning have shifted in her favor.
RCP just posted CA and NY polls with her up by 17% and 21% respectively. I concede CA is not in play, but OMG, what’s with New Yorkers supporting this corrupt carpetbagger over a favorite son who wants to put them back to work and keep them safe??!!!
Just had hoped to awaken to better trends this morning.
Alas, more depression. Hildabeast reclaims a .4 tenths lead in today’s UPI tracker.
Pray America wakes. Only positive sign: huge rallies!
All I have to say is I’m glad I’m not you people.
It must suck to be so bored as to tie your moods to polls like that.
Let’s see, didn’t Hill applaud the Arab Spring, which almost caused Egypt to fall to an ISIS type government?
