Michael Hayden: Trump Is Helping ISIS “He’s feeding their recruitment video.”
Donald Trump may have vowed to “bomb the shit” out of the Islamic State, but his anti-Muslim rhetoric may actually be helping the terror group, according to one of the United States’ top foreign policy experts.
Michael Hayden, the former head of both the CIA and the NSA, explained in an interview with the Guardian that “the jihadist narrative is that there is undying enmity between Islam and the modern world.”
“When Trump says they all hate us, he’s using their narrative,” Hayden said. “He’s feeding their recruitment video.”
