A teen celebrity should be held to the same standard as the President of the United States?

I don't at all, but the thing is that in Western culture she probably is more influential than the president (sadly enough). Her side controls the message. When you are famous enough to be followed by 46M people on social media, you need to realize that you have a responsibility if you decide to go into political matters. We're at a point where I think liberals would literally be fine with impeaching Trump if it meant Ariana Grande took his position. That's not even hyperbole.

the rhetoric from Trump to ban millions of innocent people because of their religion only helps ISIS and other terrorist groups because it potentially paints the picture for people of other countries that America hates Islam

What's your solution? Do you not think that such a thing would drastically lower the rate at which terrorist attacks occur? At the expense of what? People can't enter the country? It's our country, so? Don't you think they need some sort of reformation when it comes to their religion? Killing gays and making women dress in full-body carpets isn't exactly compatible with our way of life.
Liberalism is the disease that's going to allow ISIS to become perpetually stronger. Had they instead targeted some right-wing entertainer who has spoken up in support of Trump or Brexit, it would empower liberal idiots even more and their embrace of this dangerous ideology would become even greater, that's the saddest part. We're in a downward spiral due to the position of Western media. They control the message that everyone sees, and their message is strongly in support of a culture that hates gays, oppresses women, and wishes death on apostates.
This attack will literally change nothing except Ariana Grande's follower count on Twitter, because (as London mayor himself said) terrorism is now "part and parcel" of our way of life due to how embarrassingly ****ed we are. People like Grande are the loudest and (sadly) most influential in the face of opposing views, but the most cowardly and silent when it gets thrown in their face.

props to President Trump for calling the bomber out as a "loser"

They are losers. Why does this offend you? They're pathetic. They're the lowest and most pathetic forms of life out there, they're terrorists. Are you trying to imply that we should be afraid to say this about them? You want everyone to pretend they're nice so that they won't attack us. "Stop calling them names or they'll kill us!" Are you kidding right now?
You seem like a huge apologist when it comes to this. Can you not even condemn Islam on the basis that they murder gays and harshly discriminate against women? Flat out, ISIS is evil and Islam itself is regressive. Neither of them are good, and I'd be quite happy with experiencing neither of them in the US.
