Trump slams Clinton over email scandal
VIGELAND: All right. So tell us what you’re seeing so far today.
The 10-day event starts Thursday, and most of the 2016 hopefuls will pass through, pausing to chomp on deep-fried snack foods, visit with locals out for a day of fun and spend some time on the political soapbox to talk with voters.
Hillary Clinton Downplays Concerns About Personal Email Server [TIME]. She arrived here with former senator Tom Harkin. But Smith personifies another of Biden’s strengths in the state: The 47-year-old lawmaker met Biden in 2006 and, as a guardsman who was Beau’s age, bonded with the vice president personally as well as politically.
“It’s a big deal”, said Helmers, “but everybody makes mistakes”.
Goodyk, who is the producer of the upcoming documentary “The Nominees”, passed along a Go-Pro camera to one of the young passengers because he wanted to get that perspective.

When the pack reached the fair’s main drag, Trump’s helicopter buzzed overhead as Clinton walked past stands selling funnel cakes, corn brats and lemonade.
Lastly, Webb argued that the United States has long insisted on a safety net to protect people who fall on hard times, face disabilities or enter into retirement. In 2011, Rick Perry was caught in an awkward photo-op because of the way he ate a corndog.
Sanders had his huge crowd, and his crumpled yellow sheet of paper, which he never actually referred to. But he certainly made an impression here.
“He landed in a helicopter with his name on the side of it”, boasted Chuck Laudner, the veteran GOP operative running Trump’s Iowa campaign, as he walked along the midway on the edges of the mob surrounding Trump.

“If we are going to transform America, if we are going to have a government that reports to working families and not large donors, we need a political revolution in this country”, Sanders said.
