First lady set to campaign for Clinton
While a batter of press reporters have been following her for almost year and a half, this was for the first time that she was traveling in the same plane as that with reporters. Max Cleland, a triple-amputee who served in Vietnam, also keys on Trump’s assertion that he has sacrificed a lot compared to families who have lost loved ones in conflict. He focused on his proposed border wall plan in a Tuesday interview with ABC’s “Good Morning America“. He says, “it was discussed that it wouldn’t be discussed, but they know my stance and I know their stance”. Mexico’s president invited both Trump and Clinton to visit.
When asked if there is “any part of the law” he would change to accommodate undocumented immigrants who are law-abiding and have kids in the U.S., Trump said: “There certainly can be a softening because we’re not looking to hurt people …”
It’s clear the recent campaign shakeup, Trump’s trip to Mexico last week and Hillary Clinton’s ongoing email scandal and Clinton Foundation woes are having a significant impact.
Trump, however, is in trouble with minority voters – 71% of nonwhites in the CNN/ORC poll said they preferred Clinton.
Michelle Obama, who received widespread praise for a rousing speech at the Democratic National Convention, will campaign in northern Virginia, according to a campaign official.
Clinton and Trump were each joined by their running mates in OH, a signal of the importance each campaign places on the Buckeye State. The location was not announced.
Clinton also answered questions about Trump’s twitter spat with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto and again pushed for the Republican nominee to release his tax returns.
Clinton and her running mate, Tim Kaine, were making a pronounced pitch on national security and defense policy on Tuesday, fanning out to military-rich communities of Tampa, Florida, and Wilmington, North Carolina.
She’ll also urge people not to miss the state’s October 17 deadline to register to vote.
USA presidential candidates Hillary Clintonand Donald Trump on Monday were in OH, one of the key states in the presidential election, on the day traditionally considered to be the start of the final stretch of the campaign culminating in the November 8 vote. But most voters say they still expect to see Clinton prevail in November, and 59% think she will be the one to get to 270 electoral votes vs. 34% who think Trump has the better shot at winning.
Clinton, addressing supporters in Florida, warned that Trump would lead the nation back to war in the Middle East.
Labor Day marked the first takeoff of the Hillary Clinton campaign plane that has room for reporters to tag along.
The day before in swing state Ohio, Trump softened his stance on immigration while Clinton blasted Russian Federation for suspected tampering in the USA electoral process.
