In speech, Trump to ramp up critique of Clinton as failure
In a fiery speech in NY that Mrs Clinton’s campaign called “nutty” and “hypocritical”, Mr Trump argued the former secretary of state was part of a political establishment that has cheated American workers through bad trade deals and endangered USA national security.
Mr Dwight Schar, a former finance chairman of the Republican National Committee, said Mr Trump never courted party donors during the primary season and accused them of seeking to buy influence in government, boasting that as a wealthy man he would be immune to their entreaties.
“President Donald Trump” is a scary proposition – but so is “President Hillary Clinton”. The presumptive Republican nominee said he doesn’t question Clinton’s faith, but simply doesn’t “know anything about her faith”.
Trump also hit Clinton for her ties to the Clinton Foundation, a philanthropic organization founded by former President Bill Clinton after his presidency. She has said she later worked through the night on the USA response.
He also claimed that her family’s Clinton Foundation had taken millions from countries in the Middle East that abuse women and members of the LGBT community.
“You have years of prosperity and you have all of these alternative lenders and you have banks that are hungry for loans”, said one veteran banking executive, who was not permitted to speak on the record”.
Hillary Clinton has announced the endorsement of more than 40 business leaders, part of an effort to win support from independents and Republicans anxious about Donald Trump.
Trump made a direct appeal to supporters of Clinton’s primary rival Bernie Sanders, urging them to help him fix a “rigged system”.
Wednesday’s address came at a pivotal moment for Trump’s presidential campaign.
Clinton’s fiery words are bolstered by a recent Moody Analytics analysis in which researchers concluded a Trump presidency would “significantly” weaken the economy, driving the US into a “lengthy” recession with almost 3.5 million job losses and a 7 percent unemployment rate. Instead, a memo sent to reporters from the campaign portrayed Trump as a hypocrite whose pro-worker rhetoric is incongruent with his past behavior.
Our society doesn’t lack women (or men) who wish to be president almost as much as it lacks women (and men) who want to be mothers and wives (or fathers and husbands). Trump’s campaign is cycling $6 million into his companies through use of his properties; meanwhile, Trump has been on an urgent fundraising quest. “He’s proud of it”.
“Trump then said, “Brian Williams” career was destroyed for saying far less”. He described Wednesday’s speech as an attempt to divert attention from his own troubles. Some Democrats point to recent demographic changes in that traditionally GOP state as a sign that it could be winnable for their party, particularly with Donald Trump at the top of the Republican ticket.
In his speech Wednesday, Trump said he has built a multi-billion-dollar business, and “that’s a talent our country desperately needs”.
The truth is that massive security failures at the highest levels of the Obama administration and Clinton’s State Department put the Benghazi mission at grave risk as terrorist threats grew daily.
Reciting his favorite campaign themes, Trump linked his opponent to open immigration refugee policies, bad trade deals, President Obama’s health care plan, and the weakening of the military, and he pledged a new approach on all of those issues.
Supporters began worrying on Monday after Trump’s campaign revealed weak fundraising totals.
