The mockery and the spin from President Trump’s political opponents poured in as soon as he made his announcement on Sunday about US forces killing ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
The president didn’t restrain his urge to take credit for the triumph or hold back on describing the events in pure Trumpspeak. He spoke of al-Baghdadi “whimpering” and “dying like a dog.” While giving the proper credit to the heroism of the operators who put an end to the career of a murderer and rapist who was one of the planet’s true villains, Trump did the presidential equivalent of an NFL touchdown dance.
Yet as far as his opponents in the media were concerned, the president’s behavior was not only unseemly but also dishonest, since they think he deserves no credit for a moment that put a bow on the successful war the United States has been waging against ISIS on his watch.

Remember when they mocked,criticized and ridiculed B.O. when UBL was killed? Me neither.
It’s somehow wrong or unbecoming for someone to take credit for one’s accomplishments - if his last name happens to be Trump, that is. But if your last name is Obama its perfectly acceptable to take credit for the accomplishments of others - like when Obama tries to take credit for the Trump economy. The left’s blatant bias is very tiresome.
Al-Baghdadi was killed because of Trump.
Bin Laden was killed despite Obama.
These facts are being avoided when MSM reports and media portrays a Moslem cleric as a saint. Those facts are; The cleric was following their book of God’s commands one of which orders beheading unbelievers and chopping their heads off. So by US stopping that cleric who dies when doing so. That makes him a hero and a saint. When the Pope thinks when dealing with moslems whatever they believe and do it’s OK He’s never commented anything about the horrors in that book and some claim even kissed that book and praises them because they believe in the same God. Following the Popes lead We shouldn’t expect any different facts and viewpoint from the lefty media.
FLASHBACK: Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi Was Held at US Prison Camp Bucca in 2009 Until Obama Let Him Go The Obama administration shut down the Bucca prison camp and released its prisoners, including Abu Dua in 2009.

They have body parts retained from Al-Baghdadi as proof of death.
They have no proof for Bin Laden. Obama told everyone he was killed and his body dumped at sea. And we all know that Obama is a lying bag of sh!t whose word means nothing.
The low down political Left is ready to exploit even terrorists to discredit Trump. They’ll criticize him if ISIS attacks the US, but give no credit for successful attacks on ISIS. In other words, they care zero about America or Americans’ safety, they just want to ‘score points’ against Trump.
GREAT POINT!
Too bad this wasn’t followed by middle of the night raids on the Democrat coup plotters who are a far greater threat to the US than ISIS. Schiff, Nadler, Pelosi and their international money backers all need to be destroyed and spend their last days in windowless cells.
Predictable. The left can always be counted on to deny Trump credit for his accomplishments.
0bama and SecState Hillary set it up.
The guy’s name was Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. That literally means, Abu Bakr the one from Baghdad. Calling him Baghdadi is equivalent to calling Donald Trump al-NewYorki.
