President Obama gave a lengthy and what some would consider quite an angry speech yesterday when further discussing the terrorist attack in Orlando. Obama used the venue to vent about those who have criticized the administration for refusing to use the term "Radical Islam."
"And let me make a final point. For a while now, the main contribution of some on the other side of the aisle have made in the fight against ISIL is to criticize this administration, and me, for not using the phrase 'Radical Islam'. That's the key they tell us. We can't beat ISIL unless we call them 'Radical Islamist's'. What exactly would using this label accomplish? What exactly would it change?"
"Calling a threat by a different name, does not make it go away. This is a political distraction."
"If someone seriously thinks that we don't know who we're fighting. That there's anyone out there who thinks we're confused about who our enemies are, that would come a surprise to thousands of terrorists who we've taken off the battlefield."
The tirade…
The comments were unquestionably a direct response to Donald Trump calling for Barack Obama to step down for not using the words "Radical Islam" when discussing the Orlando shooting just days before.
In his remarks today, President Obama disgracefully refused to even say the words ‘Radical Islam’. For that reason alone, he should step down. If Hillary Clinton, after this attack, still cannot say the two words ‘Radical Islam’ she should get out of this race for the Presidency.
As we've come to expect, Trump didn't stand idle for too long after the rant by Obama. During a rally in Greensboro, North Carolina, Trump took the time to hit back at Obama, saying that the President was more angry at Trump than he was at the shooter.
"We've seen that political correctness is deadly, they don't want to talk about the problem. I watched President Obama today, and he was more angry at me than he was at the shooter."
"One of the folks on television said boy has trump gotten under his skin. But he was more angry, and a lot of people have said this, the level of anger that's the kind of anger he should have for the shooter and these killers that shouldn't be here."
