Trump addresses the nation following the takedown of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi

Much like former President Barack Obama during the raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound, Trump watched the raid unfold on Saturday night from the White House Situation Room. The president described watching the raid while it was underway "as though you were watching a movie."
