Sarah Sanders: Trump's done more in 8 months to defeat ISIS, isolate North Korea than Obama...
Washington Examiner ^ | 10/9/17 | Diana Stancy Correll

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said it is "indisputable" President Trump's actions concerning nuclear-armed North Korea and the Islamic State have made a greater impact than the Obama administration.

"It's indisputable that President @realDonaldTrump has done more to isolate North Korea & defeat ISIS in 8 months than Obama did in 8 years," she tweeted Monday night.

Additionally, she included a statement from Vice President Mike Pence.

"While critics engage in empty rhetoric and baseless attacks, under the President's leadership, ISIS is on the run; North Korea is isolated like never before; and our NATO allies are doing more to pay for their fair share for our common defense," Pence said in the statement.

Trump echoed similar sentiments last month about the administration's accomplishments tackling ISIS.

"We have made more progress in the last nine months against ISIS than the Obama Administration has made in 8 years. Must be proactive & nasty!" he tweeted following the ISIS-related terrorist attack at a London train station.

Just last week, more than 1,000 ISIS fighters surrendered in Iraq after the Iraqi military obtained Hawija, according to the New York Times. The Iraqi military and ISIS fighter sparred for 15 days before ISIS fighters surrendered.

Huh? Obama was doing something to defeat ISIS and was against North Korea? Could have fooled me, I thought Obama was helping our enemies!

There is a question. Many claim Bo actively harmed the U.S.

There is a good case to be made for that.

All this without excessive focus polls. We can already see the DACA and Dreamer negotiations with the Democrats already threatening government shutdown.

I wish they would stop comparing him to Obama. I wouldn’t mind if they could find a way to do it without mentioning Obama. I’m all Obamaed out.

Yes, he chose to ignore the holdover voice of entrenched Obots.

Unfortunately they directly targeted him. They can tease the dragon’s tail, but eventually they will get smoked.

He and his administration have exhibited signs of adult leadership for the first time in many many years.

He has selected some excellent people to help him, he has the core of the US citizens solidly in his camp.

The ComDems and RINOs are still blowing a head gasket daily. It will lead to a coronary for some of them.

Granted it was a low bar to clear, but all the same...

That is why there is a FULL COURT press on TRUMP. He is STOMPING the left at every turn.

Winning and More Winning.

I understand that the last major stronghold of ISIS in Syria is close to being liberated (Raqqa)

Iraq to put up ISIS free zone all over the country.

US Backed Syrian forces to put up similar signs shortly.

Left, however, was able to urge Russia to bomb US backed forces in Syria.

I refer to him as Obama-mess. Having to clean up MESSES is worse than doing nothing...

Obama was helping our enemies.

Precisely why the founders said he could not be President.

Natural born citizen means born here of citizen parents.

Obama’s foreign national father made him a British subject at birth.
Not a natural born citizen.

We should NEVER allow that to happen again.

I wish there was a way to ignore threads about both the useless Magic Negro and the other Fat, criminal unindicted failed '16 presidential candidate... President of Nothing, whatshername...

Barak Hussein never tried or meant to destroy ISIS. It was his baby. He wanted to see his brand of Islam prevail in the Middle East.
