Trump says he has ‘much more humility’ than people think
It’s provided a more accurate forecast on the Democratic side: among the last seven nominees in a contested year, five began with a win in Iowa.
It’s nice to see 2016’s Democratic presidential candidates agree on something. “No, that is not, I think, a fair assessment”. “I think the younger voters aren’t so willing to have wool pulled over their eyes this time”.
Hundreds lined up to attend the Cruz event, waiting by tables filled with campaign shirts, pocket copies of the U.S. Constitution and a Cruz coloring and activity book for children. “He has a lot of off-the-wall ideas that other haven’t thought of and might be good for us”. After writing a research paper on Sanders for a composition class, Petersen said he “fell in love with progressive politics that he embodies”.
Trump, the billionaire NY real estate developer who has previously said same-sex marriage was the law of the land, told Fox News that if elected, he would seek to appoint judges who could overturn the ruling. There’s “no such thing as an election violation related to frequency of voting”, he said, and insinuating otherwise is “not in keeping in the spirit of the Iowa caucuses”. “And of course, there’s that contrast with Secretary Clinton”. I mean, we’re all going to the same place, probably one of two places, you know? “I’ll tell you what, if the kids in a rich suburb of Detroit had been drinking contaminated water and being bathed in it, there would have been action”. At a point when most candidates are counting their minutes in Iowa, Sanders spoke for more than an hour, decrying “the greed and reckless and illegal behavior of Wall Street” and promising the crowd: “We will not allow a rigged economy to continue”. “Every day is different working for any political candidate”. In the interview, he said “none of the other guys will win”. His personal conversion from Romney supporter to Democrat, Petersen said, is “an effective message”. On ABC’s “This Week”, host George Stephanopoulos asked Clinton if Sanders’ affiliation as a democratic socialist would adversely affect the Democratic Party’s electoral prospects from the top down. He added that it would not be acceptable for Clinton to be able to walk into “a state where she’s behind and says she wants to have a debate”.
“What I’ve said to my campaign is that I would look forward to another debate”, she said. “My Republican friends and family members, they’re much more willing to consider Bernie”.
Republican Ted Cruz directed much of his final advertising against Marco Rubio as the senators’ feud grows even more bitter in the final days.
“I would say that’s hogwash”, Petersen said. Sanders is seeking a firm commitment from the Hillary Clinton campaign for debates in March, April, May, according to a person familiar with the negotiations.
In Waverly, speaking to an enthusiastic crowd, Sanders predicted victory – if turnout is high.
That is why, though most of our media missed the story, Bernie Sanders was not in Davenport or Dubuque, Dover or Durham on Tuesday.
Afterwards, Giffords made a brief statement. “I’m doing this to elect a president. The reason that the rich get richer, everybody else gets poorer, is big money controls what goes on in Congress. The answer though to that is a political revolution involving people in the political process”.
