There is a genre of website that is predicated on fooling the visitor. He puts himself in the headlines with inflammatory remarks nearly daily – and can’t seem to help himself. Bring the experience of the Augusta Free Press team to work for you – for a fraction of the cost. The truth is that people really can be that “stupid”. The story is trash; the website, at the very bottom, notes that it’s “satire”. “He calls it ISIL because nobody else does and he probably wants to bother people by using another term, whether it’s more accurate or not”.

Their goal isn’t to make an ironic point or to raise awareness on a subject, it’s to get traffic. THEY DONT GET SARCASM? he tweeted.
On an unrelated note, something happened in politics this week.
This political shitshow began Wednesday, when Trump said at a Florida rally, “ISIS is honoring President Obama”. “We rely on partners in Muslim countries to fight terrorists”, Clinton said earlier this summer. He’s the founder of ISIS, OK? No, Obama was not the founder of ISIS. And I give it to him, and I give it to, I gave the co-founder to Hillary.
Given multiple opportunities to allow that his language had been hyperbolic or, yes, metaphoric, Trump refused. He repeated that claim Thursday, but in a tweet Friday, referred to it as sarcasm.
“This American candidate, who speaks in the name of the American Republican Party, has facts” that can support this assertion, Nasrallah said in a speech on Saturday, according to a transcript published by Al Manar TV. “We’ve been paying the price for it for years”.
There is, however, no objectively factual conclusion that Obama or Clinton founded ISIS. He shouldn’t have gotten out the way he got out. Is there something wrong with saying that?
“No, I meant he’s the founder of ISIS”, Trump said. You meant that he created the vacuum, that he lost the peace. From saying Obama founded Daesh (ISIS) to praising Saddam Hussein, some are beginning to wonder if Trump – who is slipping in the polls – is trying to lose on objective. “He was the most valuable player”, Trump said, using an acronym for the militant Islamist group, adding Clinton also deserved the award.
Donald Trump is naming names as to who he’d like to see moderate his upcoming debates with Hillary Clinton as well as revealing who should steer clear. He mocked the “poor, pathetic” television pundits who try to figure him out and said, “They can’t!” He was the founder.
Moulton, an Iraq War veteran, characterized Trump as a serial liar who is damaging USA efforts to destroy ISIS. “Although the Second Amendment people – maybe there is, I don’t know”.
First, of course, there’s Trump, whose grip on basic vocabulary words like “sexism”, “rigged” and “war hero” has always been shaky.
“I think [NBC Nightly News anchor] Lester Holt is a good guy”. That’s what I would say.
A large number of Republicans have attempted to argue that the Obama administration, in which Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state, permitted ISIS to grow by opting not to send troops to the Middle East.
At a rally, the under-fire Republican presidential candidate said Mr Obama was “the founder of Isis”, repeating the claim in two subsequent interviews. The mom’s running around, like, don’t worry about it, you know. Sarcasm is being ironic for the purposes of mockery. “Do you believe that?” he said. When an interviewer pointed out Russian Federation had annexed Crimea, Trump said he meant Russian Federation wouldn’t dare go farther if he were president. Is that what Trump means? “In stark contrast, Donald Trump is hiding behind fake excuses and backtracking on his previous promises to release his tax returns”.
Of all of his various verbal transgressions, this one doesn’t seem like it was significantly more detrimental to his campaign efforts than some in the past. I’m going to a fundraiser for the Republican Party.
Daily local news headlines from across Gwinnett County.
We do know why he did it, though. Shes hammered him for avoiding accountability for his actions. Saying Obama created the Islamic State formed a nice little feedback loop of applause. Both are considered terrorist organizations by the US, and Nasrallah’s remarks revived a claim that Trump initially trumpeted and then downplayed as being sarcastic. It was Trump wanting and getting attention, a process he has mastered.
In an odd moment on the campaign trail, Trump was talking about trade in Ashburn, Virginia, when he was interrupted by a baby crying in the audience, prompting an impromptu riff from the presidential candidate.
