President Barack Obama addressed the nation from the Oval Office on terrorism, terror threats, ISIS, and the recent San Bernardino attacks on Sunday. Soon after the address, Donald Trump took to Twitter and asked, "Is that all there is? We need a new President - FAST!" reports Breitbart News.

He followed it up by criticizing the fact that Obama had called the terror group ISIS, instead of ISIS. "Wish Obama would say ISIS, like almost everyone else, rather than ISIL," Trump posted, adding, "Should have gone after the oil years ago (like I have been saying)," according to Breitbart News.

In fact Trump had stated earlier in the day on Dec. 6 that it was a "BIG NIGHT ON TWITTER TONIGHT," reports Business Insider. He continued on Twitter with, "I WILL BE LIVE TWEETING PRESIDENT OBAMA'S SPEECH AT 7:50 P.M. ( EASTERN). MUST TALK RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORISM!"

Other GOP candidates were quick to catch on with Florida Sen. Marco Rubio saying that Obama was "completely overwhelmed," by terrorism. "Where is the evidence that we have widespread discrimination against Muslims? The notion that a radical jihadist who is on a no-fly list is going to walk into a local gun shop to purchase a gun is absurd," Rubio said, according to CNN.

"President Obama's declaration tonight that his policies are working was strange. Strange that it took four days from the attack to respond and even more strange that somehow the attack on our soil is proof his policies are working. One must wonder who has contained who," said Republican Ben Carson in his statement, according to CNN.

"If I am elected President, I will direct the Department of Defense to destroy ISIS. And I will shut down the broken immigration system that is letting jihadists into our country. Nothing President Obama said tonight will assist in either case," said a statement by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, reports CNN.

"This administration has consistently misread the very obvious signs of radical Islamic Jihadism, and it's just unfortunate that we continue to see more waves of this. It sounds to me that the President is more interested in protecting the reputation of Islam, than he is in protecting the American people," said a critical Mike Huckabee, reports CNN.

Comments on Obama's speech by Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O'Malley are awaited.
