The death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the Islamic State leader, happened largely in spite of President Trump’s actions, not because of them, according to military, intelligence and counterterrorism officials https://t.co/f7iowu8U54

TRUMP: "From the first day I came to office…I would say, 'where's al-Baghdadi? I want al-Baghdadi.' We would kill terrorist leaders but they were names I never heard of. They were names that weren't recognizable & they weren't the big names. Some good ones, some important ones" https://t.co/ETvEZm4Jvp

Trump pathetically still tries to measure up to Obama he claims the killing of Baghdadi is bigger than Bin Laden. pic.twitter.com/D5fV3CT8pj

The gory relish with which Trump describes Baghdadi's mutilation, and how Isis terrorists will not escape "the mighty judgment of God", weirdly echoes how Isis talks about the execution of its victims. "He died like a dog," says Trump three times. https://t.co/fxMiHoezop

"Trump is a man who has appeared in ISIS recruitment videos…Trump is a 'recruiting sergeant' for ISIS…he has a been a great boost…100 ISIS fighters escaped from prison which he curiously didn't mention this morning." -my full 5-min @MSNBC interview this morning on #Baghdadi pic.twitter.com/JkXdHEVkqe

This Baghdadi killing (good news however you spin it) does bring back some fun Trump tweet memories. pic.twitter.com/ieSAHhJ0H3

As an academic I have spent years studying, teaching, and writing on Islamic theology, doctrine, history, and other religions disciplines in Islam. My opinion should count when I say, al-Baghdadi was not a scholar by any stretch of the imagination. Obituary in the @washingtonpost pic.twitter.com/rBkZwABJCF

So Trump goes out of his way to praise and thank Russia, only to have Russia distance itself and express doubts? https://t.co/x62gSyxMCV

President Trump: "We notified some [lawmakers], others are being notified now as I speak. We were going to notify them last night but we decided not to do that because Washington leaks like I've never seen before. There's no country in the world that leaks like we do." pic.twitter.com/54ET3Cw0r4

#Trump’s implication that informing @SpeakerPelosi of the #Bagdhadi operation would have led to leaks is scandalous. @JohnJHarwood explains well that while Trump leaks intelligence info, Pelosi doesn’t. https://t.co/9yUlTb7VdM

This is incredibly low-class. Less than 24 hours after the raid, Trump's campaign is trying to fundraise off it.

The sick thing is there will be people stupid enough to donate. https://t.co/lnSq4lI3Pj

Trump has made 31 claims about companies adding or saving American jobs thanks to his intervention — adding up to 2.4 million jobs.

We checked in May. More than *90 percent* of the jobs haven't materialized. https://t.co/B7qT0c3Ewj
