Trump claims ‘I’m the one who captured ISIS’

In a cabinet meeting that was filled with many bizarre moments, Trump claimed that he, personally, captured ISIS.

“ISIS was all over the place,” Trump said Monday of the time before he got involved in Syria, per a pool report. “It was me … who captured them. I’m the one who did the capturing. I’m the one who knows more about it than you people or the fake pundits,” Trump then told the gathered reporters. It’s reminiscent of his false claim last week that, even though his then-Secretary of Defense James Mattis said it would take two years to defeat ISIS, Trump did it in one month.
