Trump demands Clinton apology for ISIS jab
“Not only do I apologize to Secretary Clinton …”

A DNC spokeswoman on Monday declined to comment on Sanders’ post-debate comments to WMUR, but she noted that DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said on Saturday, “We are glad that all parties are moving forward and that the candidates and the party can refocus on engaging voters on the issues that matter to them: building on the president’s legacy of creating jobs, growing the economy, and a robust discussion on how we can keep Americans safe”.
Clinton and Sanders both favored gun control legislation, and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley touted his record of pushing gun safety laws in Maryland.
“That was wrong and I apologized”, he said.
“The second time a staffer or more – we don’t know yet, we’re doing that investigation – screwed up and we have fired that person”, he said.
Sanders and Clinton defended their records, with the Vermont senator saying, “Let’s calm down a little bit, Martin”.
Clinton, whose campaign said Sanders made a number of breaches into Clinton computer files, accepted the apology and said it was time to move on.
She came under fire from Republicans even before the debate was over for optimistically saying “we now finally are where we need to be” in Syria, and was criticised by Ms Sanders for being too quick to push for regime change. “I don’t think the American people are all that interested in this”.
She slammed Donald Trump for his inflammatory rhetoric, calling him “ISIS’s best recruiter”.
She said Islamic State militants are showing videos of billionaire tycoon talking about his proposed ban as a recruitment tool.
All three candidates stressed working more closely with Muslim-American communities to tackle radicalism at home.
The foreign policy focus has blunted Sanders’ momentum in the Democratic race.
On Friday, Sanders filed a lawsuit to force the DNC to restore access to his voter files, which it had blocked after the Sanders campaign improperly accessed files generated by the Clinton campaign. The DNC restored his campaign’s access to its own information after the campaign showed that the proprietary information was destroyed.

Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver accused the DNC of working to protect Clinton, pointing to the party’s limited debates at low-viewership periods such as Saturday nights as an example.
