Is Donald Trump The Islamic State's Best Recruiter?



Daily Mail: 'He is becoming ISIS' best recruiter': Hillary Clinton blasts Donald Trump for demonizing Muslims and using 'bluster and bigotry to inflame people'

* Democrats hit Republican frontrunner Mr Trump in New Hampshire debate
* Mrs Clinton claimed he's being used in ISIS propaganda to recruit fighters
* Also suggested Mr Trump is hurting the US chances of building coalition

Hillary Clinton ripped into Donald Trump at a Democratic presidential candidates' debate last night over his plan to ban Muslim immigrants.

'He is becoming ISIS's best recruiter,' she claimed. 'They are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists.'

Mrs Clinton said that Americans need to work more closely with the Muslim community in their country because 'they will be our early warning signal' against possible terrorist attacks.

WNU Editor: The Islamic State has had no trouble gaining recruits without the aid of Donald Trump for a very long time .... I doubt that they need him to recruit more. But for me .... the big news from yesterday's debate was this .... Clinton backs Obama's Islamic State strategy in Democratic debate (Reuters)

Hillary does not have to back Obama but she was part of his administration so she kind of has to. So it is no surprise. Also, if she backs Obama, it may pay dividends in that the Clinton and Obama camps don't bleed each other.


Hillary after all is a Democrat. She can evolve on an issue and all will be forgiven.


So this may be a safe play for her. Again she can always evolve after her official coronation.

Just my 2 cents
