Daily Mail reports that in the first official remarks by the group referring to Donald Trump since he assumed office, spokesman Abi al-Hassan al-Muhajer unloaded on the president.
"America you have drowned and there is no savior, and you have become prey for the soldiers of the caliphate in every part of the earth, you are bankrupt and the signs of your demise are evident to every eye,' he said in the statement that was released on Tuesday April 4.
"There is no more evidence than (that) you being run by an idiot who does not know what Syria or Iraq or Islam is."
NAIJ.com gathered that the statement continued: 'Die of spite America, die of spite, a nation where both young and old are racing to die in the name of God will not be defeated.'
The first comments directly about Trump were released after he spent much of his campaign talking up his ability to immediately defeat the group.
US-backed forces are currently fighting to retake Islamic State's two biggest cities - Mosul in Iraq and Raqqa in Syria.
And the president is examining ways to accelerate the American-led coalition's campaign that US and Iraqi officials have deemed largely successful in uprooting Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria.
The loss of Mosul, ISIS' last major stronghold in Iraq, would deal a major defeat to the terrorist group.
