On Wednesday, Trump addressed his brainwashed followers in true fashion: a small jarb here, and a small jarb there. Then, he went for the gullet. He suggested that Hillary Clinton and Obama conspired together to create ISIS. During an interview following the rally, he insisted that his comments were true. Afterward, things spiraled for Trump as his comments spread like wildfire throughout all of social media. Here is what he said during the interview following the rally: "No, I meant he’s the founder of ISIS. I do. He was the most valuable player. I give him the most valuable player award. I give her, too, by the way, Hillary Clinton." In an attempt to save his a**, he logged onto Twitter and said that he was being " sarcastic ." On Friday, Trump tweeted the following: "Ratings challenged @CNN reports so ...

If he were actually human, he would have shown a shred of compassion for those lost in Sunday's mass shooting. While he spent most of his day priding himself on being right about wanting a ban on Muslims, he did take some time out to attack the President.

Photo Credit: The Wrap Days after Hillary Clinton was declared the presumptive Democratic nominee for the President, President Obama has requested to meet with Bernie Sanders privately in the Oval Office. While President Obama is expected to endorse presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, he is not going to ask Sanders to drop out of the race. White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters that President Obama believes that Bernie Sanders has " more than earned the right to make his own decision about the course of his campaign ." Much of the conversation between Obama and Sanders will center around unifying a divided Democratic party, and what Sanders' role can be in doing this. Bernie Sanders has been steadfast in his disagreements with Hillary Clinton. The question is: Can he and Clinton settle things in order to unify the party and take down Trump? My Two Cents My support for Bernie Sanders isn't as solid as it once was. I don't ...
