Hillary Clinton responds to Donald Trump’s ‘cofounder’ of ISIS comment: ‘It’s crazy’

Trump notably belittled his primary rivals, tagging Jeb Bush as “low-energy”, and disparaging Ted Cruz as “Lyin’ Ted”, and Marco Rubio as “Little Marco”.

House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Rep. Jason Chaffetz is demanding to know whether the FBI investigated the possibility that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s lawyers mishandled classified information.

Additionally, Clinton leads Trump on a range of top election issues according to the poll – likely Virginia voters give her the edge on the economy, terrorism, health care, and immigration, and she has almost 40-point advantages on race relations and foreign policy.

The Democratic nominee’s physical well-being has been a topic of discussion for the last week, but with Kimmel she took a lighter approach.

With the first debate scheduled to take place a month from now near New York, Clinton joked about what to expect from her unorthodox opponent. Through a foundation, so did the son-in-law of a former Ukrainian president whose government was widely criticized for corruption and the murder of journalists.

“I do feel sometimes like this campaign has entered into an alternative universe”, she said in an appearance on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” taped Monday afternoon.

“I look presidential”, he insisted. She’s definitely trying to nab that millennial vote, and what better way than with humor?

The signs are all there: freakish coughing fits, falls, failure to return to a debate stage on time, requiring help up stairs, and what many describe as seizures and blackouts.

Not completely convinced, Kimmel challenged the former secretary of state to open a jar of pickles to demonstrate her fitness.

“She is the first women from a major party running for president, so gender is always at play”, said Dianne Bystrom, the director of the Carrie Chapman Catt Center for Women and Politics at Iowa State University. But these calls, like Donald Trump’s demand on Monday that it close, are missing an essential point about the foundation’s work: if it disappeared, those helped by the work it supports could fall through the widening cracks of our unequal global society.

Gender has always been tricky for Clinton.

Clinton tried to use humor to defuse the latest controversy over her emails.

One of the latest firestorms of the social media-driven presidential race are calls for the Clinton Foundation to shut down due to – as yet unproven – conflicts of interest. Trump, meanwhile, has a 12-percentage-point advantage with men.

One can nearly hear the regret in the copy editor’s voice as he mounted the headline, as if Clinton’s email security imbroglio was merely a hurdle for her campaign to clear, not a self-inflicted national security scandal about which she has consistently lied to the public.

Donald Trump said that as president he would appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the financial dealings of the Clinton family’s charitable foundation.

His rallies are filled with blatant misogyny. Supporters wear “Trump vs. Tramp” political buttons, and have even harsher slogans and signs.

It is now widely considered Clinton’s election to lose, but she seems to be doing her darndest to make that happen.

“We were all pretty excited about the balloons”, she said. Drew Pinsky (video below) said recently that “he is “gravely concerned” about Hillary Clinton’s health, noting that the treatment she has received is “bizarre” and could explain the “weird side-effects” that people are seeing”, wrote Infowars last week.
