Yesterday Hugh Hewitt and Trump went back and forth on his calling Obama the Founder of ISIS. Hewitt explained that he knew what Trump was trying to say, but questioned him on calling Obama the founder of ISIS.
But Trump doubled down, saying he meant that Obama was the founder of ISIS.
Well that was yesterday.
This is today:
Ratings challenged @CNN reports so seriously that I call President Obama (and Clinton) "the founder" of ISIS, & MVP. THEY DON'T GET SARCASM?

Sarcasm? Hewitt literally gave Trump an out, a chance to clarify his comments. But he didn’t.
And now apparently he’s seeing it damaging him, and suddenly just flip flops, accusing CNN of bias?
So now Trump tweets that he was being sarcastic about Obama being founder of ISIS. Wait. What?!?

Trump, November 9th: "My whole campaign was sarcasm. It's not my fault you couldn't tell."

This is exactly why we are going to lose in November. Trump is the worst candidate ever.
