"TRUMP DEFEATS ISIS IN MONTHS – AFTER YEARS OF EXCUSES FROM OBAMA" - Editorial Board, Investor's Business Daily The editorial board of Investor's Business Daily writes "For all intents and purposes, ISIS has been defeated," following the capture of the ISIS capital Raqqa by U.S.-backed forces, and that in nine months, President Trump did "what Obama couldn't in the previous three years."
