Really deplore Donald Trump’s tone of presidential campaign: Hillary Clinton
Earlier in the day Wednesday, Trump appeared to mock Clinton’s Tuesday town-hall event in Iowa, warning her not to play the “war-on-women or women-being-degraded card”.
The comment was widely criticized, and Clinton’s campaign said Tuesday that Trump’s “degrading language” hurts women.
Donald Trump has been at the centerstage of all things that scream “controversy”.
“Later on, Trump spokeswoman Katrina Pierson tried to clarify her boss” comment.
Donald Trumps leads the New Hampshire Republican Presidential preference primary with 21 percent, but 57 percent of likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire say they would never vote for him in the primary.
But even as Clinton and her party publicly slam Trump, they’re quietly grappling with the question of how to target the Republican front-runner without discounting the feeling of insecurity he’s tapped into in the electorate. I don’t know. How does it get worse?
And just when you thought the Donald couldn’t offend [insert minority group here] anymore than he already has, he upped the ante and chose to attack Hillary Clinton by telling a raucous crowd of fellow dimwits that President Obama “schlonged” her in the 2008 election (slang for getting dick-slapped), then attacked her for going to the toilet. I mean it’s like such a Worldwide Wrestling Federation match. “I know where she went”, Trump said. “No, it’s too disgusting”. Overall, about 6 in 10 Democratic voters say the Democratic Party has a better chance of winning the presidency with Clinton as their nominee than with someone else (59% say the party has its best chance with Clinton, 38% someone else). “Trump is upset… it’s very hard for him to deal with”. I have great respect for women.
In an unusual aside – Sanders doesn’t like to talk much about himself – the Vermont senator delivered a confession: “I also went to the bathroom”. The gap is actually even larger when it comes to favorable views of the candidates: 82 percent of Democratic women hold a favorable view of Clinton, but that drops to 71 percent among men. Among the 414 registered voters surveyed who identify as Democrats or Democratic-leaning independents, the margin of error is plus or minus 5 percentage points.
Now, after spending weeks largely out of the spotlight, Clinton plans to intensify her campaign schedule from an nearly incumbent-style effort to a more aggressive, first-timer approach. Finally, at the first Democratic debate, Sanders famously told Hillary that we are “sick and exhausted of hearing about your damn emails!” In surveys taken after the Saturday debate, Clinton shot up to 60 percent while Sanders dropped to 27 percent. And prior to the third Democratic debate, the Bernie Sanders campaign was punished by the Democratic National Committee for accessing voter information belonging to the Hillary campaign.
Perhaps most damning to Brock’s theory is that Trump – the quintessential Manhattan real estate tycoon – has used the term before in a political context in a race which featured two white female candidates. He hasn’t given in to Hillary’s view on any of the issues – he simply unites with her against a common enemy.
Democrats are more apt to see Clinton as holding several key attributes than they are Sanders.
