Clinton Hits Trump For Frames Made In India

Clinton conceded that some voters still feel like they don’t know her.

U.S. Sen. Cory Booker, in a rousing speech, said, “Hillary Clinton knows what Donald Trump betrays time and again in this campaign: that we are not a zero sum nation, it is not you or me, it is not one American against another”. “A man you can bait with a tweet is not a man we can trust with nuclear weapons”, she said, also characterizing Trump as one of the “little men – the ones moved by fear and pride”. Trump’s national security stumbles in questioning USA support for North Atlantic Treaty Organisation allies and urging Russian Federation to meddle in the race provides a general-election opening for Clinton and other Democrats to reach out to Republicans. And she questioned his temperament. “People feel she did what she needed to do and hit it out of the park”.

“Don’t believe anyone who says ‘I alone can fix it, ‘ ” she said.

Former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, known to have a penchant for brooches, celebrated Clinton with a pin adorned with broken glass.

“In these stressful times for our country, this election must be about bringing our people together, not dividing us up”, Sanders said.

“She’s offering a message of equal economic opportunity, access to health care, education opportunities for all children regardless of their zip code and strength in our nation and strength in our world”, Moore said of Clinton. At times, Sanders supporters raised a ruckus inside the Wells Fargo Center, marched outside and staged both sit-ins and walk-outs.

“It’s going to be tough, but we think we can get some stuff done”, campaign chairman John Podesta concedes about the prospect of enacting her legislative priorities in collaboration with a House that looks to remain Republican and a Senate that will be very closely split no matter which party wins control this fall. In contrast with Trump’s omnipresence at the Republican convention, Clinton spent much of last week at home in NY.

Clinton was introduced by her daughter, Chelsea, who spoke warmly of her mother as a woman “driven by compassion, by faith, by kindness, a fierce sense of justice, and a heart full of love”.

Sanders’ delegates from NY were either resigned to back Clinton, were uncertain or simply said they would not actively work to oppose her.

She embraced her reputation as a studious wonk, a politician more comfortable with policy proposals than rhetorical flourishes. “I sweat the details of policy”, she admitted.

She disputed Mr Trump’s assertion that she wanted to repeal the Second Amendment, saying: “I’m not here to take away your guns”.

Clinton and her convention had their share of detractors too – China’s Global Times said USA democracy “myths” had been “ruined” by the Wikileaks release of Democratic National Committee emails on Monday, which showed alleged intervention in the Democratic primary process.

The statement says Clinton’s remarks were “delivered from a fantasy universe, not the reality we live in today”. It slams Clinton for not mentioning the words, “radical Islam”, “her disaster in Libya” or the investigation of Clinton’s private email server.

The speech capped a four-day nominating convention that opened in discord after a leak of hacked Democratic National Committee emails showed party officials favored Clinton over primary rival Bernie Sanders, a US senator from Vermont. And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life. PBS said its viewership for Clinton’s speech was 3.91 million people, and 2.75 million the week earlier for Trump.

As delegates chanted “Bernie” and others chanted “Hillary”, an exasperated Silverman said, “To the “Bernie or Bust” people: You’re being ridiculous”. Stars like Alicia Keys, Katy Perry, Lenny Kravitz and Paul Simon performed for the Democrats, and President Barack Obama, first lady Michelle Obama and former President Bill Clinton showed off their oratorical skills.

But Republicans argue that the failure to use the label has hampered the fight against terror.

How well Clinton and Trump fare in NY will have statewide implications for down-ballot races, such as congressional representation and control of the state Senate.
