Hillary Clinton Falsely Claimed ISIS Shows Video of Trump to Recruit Would-Be Jihadists
Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Donald Trump ripped Hillary Clinton for claiming during the Democratic debate Saturday night that he is “becoming ISIS’s best recruiter,” calling it “just another Hillary lie.”
“Nobody has been able to back that up. It’s nonsense. Just another Hillary lie,” Trump said. “She lies like crazy about everything. Whether it’s trips where she was being gunned down in a helicopter or an airplane, she’s a liar and everybody knows that. But she just made this up in thin air.”
Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta doubled-down on the claim ISIS is showing potential recruits videos of Trump, which don’t exist, on the same show earlier. Fact-checkers, including People’s Pundit, have widely debunked Clinton’s claim, albeit most are doing so with kid gloves.
As someone who gets/analyzes all #ISIS prop videos, @HillaryClinton claim in #DemDebate about @realDonaldTrump was TOTALLY false. None exist

“He is becoming ISIS’s greatest recruiter,” Mrs. Clinton said at the Democratic debate in Manchester, New Hampshire, on Saturday night. “They are going to people, showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists.”
The claim is patently false. In fact, there is one ISIS recruiting video featuring someone with the last name of one of the presidential candidates. But it isn’t Trump.

“I think my words represent toughness and strength. Hillary’s not strength. Hillary’s weak, frankly, she’s got no stamina, she’s got nothing,” Trump said. “She couldn’t even get back on the stage. Nobody even knows what happened to her. It’s like she went home and went to sleep.”
Todd, NBC’s political guru that is a known longtime Clinton supporter, pushed back on Trump as if he was picking on her.
“She couldn’t get back on the stage last night I’ll tell you why,” Trump said. “Because we need a president with great strength and stamina and Hillary doesn’t have that. We can not have another bad president like we have right now. We need a president with tremendous intelligence, smarts, cunning, strength, and stamina.”
Hillary Clinton spokesperson admitted that their was no ISIS video of me. Therefore, Hillary LIED at the debate last night. SAD!

Again, Todd brought up the Clinton supporters’ talking points, noting that she traveled a lot as secretary of state, which is exhausting. Indeed, Clinton has traveled more than any other secretary of state, though critics point out that her frequent flyer miles haven’t translated into stability in the world.
“She may have traveled a lot but she didn’t do the job because the entire world blew up around her,” Trump added. “So, she wasted a lot of time and energy and money and frankly she wasted a lot of lives because her policies were disaster for the world. The Middle East has blown up around her. Her decisions were horrible. and hundreds of thousands of people have been killed because of her faulty decisions.”
