Trump demands Clinton apology for ISIS "best recruiter" jab

Source: USA Today

Donald Trump says he will "demand" an apology from Hillary Clinton for saying that his anti-Muslim comments have made him the Islamic State's "best recruiter," including the use of videos.

"She should apologize," Trump said Monday on NBC's TODAY show. "She lies about emails, she lies about Whitewater, she lies about everything. She will be a disaster about everything as president of the United States."

Trump has called for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the United States until the government gets a better handle on the terrorist threat.

During Saturday's Democratic debate, Clinton said the U.S. needs to make sure that "the really discriminatory messages that Trump is sending around the world don't fall on receptive ears. He is becoming ISIS's best recruiter. They are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists."

If Trump doesn't want to be called a Goose he should stop Honking like a Goose.
His xenophobic rhetoric is giving ISIL a perfect example of American hatred and ignorance.
I'm sure if he stops being a racist xenophobe people will stop calling him one.

Yes I have seen the nit-picky Trump-apologist 'fact' checks regarding Clinton's debate statement, but Trump is responsible for what trump has done.

Armed Forces Members,Veterans Use #iwillprotectyou After Muslim Child Says She's Afraid

Source: ABC News

On Facebook and Twitter, military service members and veterans have started using the hashtag #iwillprotectyou after one mother's post went viral about her daughter's fear of being kicked out of the country.

Melissa Chance Yassini posted about her daughter's reaction to hearing proposals by Donald Trump to ban Muslims from entering the country...

Yassini's post went viral and was shared more than 20,000 times. Eventually she and her daughter told their story to The Associated Press.
Kerri Peek, an Army veteran saw the story on social media and was horrified.

"I was up all night, it bothered me," Peek told ABC News. "I'm a mom, for mother to mother ... I know you want to protect your children from everything."

but frankly, I couldn't care less. His supporters are a bunch of goons and have long since lost their minds anyway. For sensible people he looks insane and she looks sane and reliable on old standby issues. I want her more progressive but they're not talking about voters like me. As long as Trump doesn't dare get into the White House I don't care whether HRC or Bernie gets it. I'm supporting Bernie, tho.

You're shit stirring and you got called on it. Put on your big boy pants and stop whining.

I'm no fan of Hillary Clinton, but even on her worst days she's a far, far better human being than you can ever hope to be. You're not fit to stand in her shadow. She has served this nation. All you've ever done is grub for money and bully people.

Dear Donald Trump:

We're sorry you're ISIS' best recruiter.
We're sorry you're running for the office of dictator, although we're not sorry the United States doesn't actually have that office.
We're sorry you're a shitty businessman.
And sorry you're even worse of a husband.
We're sorry so many Americans are so unbelievably stupid as to want someone with no experience in politics whatsoever to be president.
You're sorry too. In fact, you're the sorriest excuse for a human being we've seen this week.

Now could you get your sorry ass back in the boardroom and start bankrupting your own companies again?

Regards, Sane Americans Everywhere
