It’s really bad when the White House gives our enemies the benefit of the doubt while continuously snubbing our allies. The way they rationalized Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei saying ‘Death to America’ is truly stunning.
CNN: WH reax to Ayatollah's Death to America was that it was "intended for a domestic political audience."

It sparked the kind of reaction you might expect. “Death to America” even trended on Twitter.
@HotlineJosh @verumserum UNBELIEVEABLE!!! But they have no problem getting up in arms about Bibi's statements and "taking him at his word".

@HotlineJosh give him a pass, it's not like he's Netanyahu or something.

So let me get this straight. @WhiteHouse thinks I am comforted "Death to America" was a message to the domestic political audience in Iran?

White House translated: Ayatollah says "death to America" like Obama used to say "I support traditional marriage" https://t.co/xnmQh14rIw

@HotlineJosh So this is like the Ayatollah's 47% or something? #BindersFullOfNukes

So Bibi's election rhetoric is worthy of widespread condemnation. Iranian Ayatollah's call for death to America is meh no big deal. Got it.

The admin response to 'Death to America' is beyond parody. It's just laughable.

Our enemies are laughing the hardest.
