President Trump told the American people Wednesday that the final ISIS stronghold will be “gone by tonight,” showing reporters a map of territory held by the Islamic State from his Election Day to the present.
“This is a map. Everything in the red, on Election Night in 2016, everything red is ISIS. When I took it over it was a mess. On the bottom, that’s the exact same thing, there is no red. Only a tiny spot which will be gone by tonight,” said the Commander-in-Chief.

“That’s ISIS right there. This is ISIS on my Election Day, and this is ISIS now. So that’s the way it goes,” he added.
