The 21 December 2015 edition of CNN's New Day actually spotlighted Hillary Clinton's false claim on 19 December 2015 that ISIS is "going to people, showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists." Chris Cuomo asserted that "it's very hard to translate it any other way...we can't find the videos." When liberal pundit Errol Louis speculated that Clinton's campaign would "migrate towards some kind of clarification," Cuomo replied, "How could you clarify it? How is it anything but wrong?" Alisyn Camerota also wondered, "Did she [Clinton] give him [Trump], unwittingly, an opening?"
