Attacks fly at GOP undercard debate
Anticipating a flood of attacks against Hillary Clinton during the first prime-time Republican debate, her campaign offered reminders Thursday of some of the kinder things those candidates have said about the Democratic front-runner.
The media needs to deeply examine the Clinton Global Initiative Fund, of which Hillary is a partner along with Bill, and has helped manipulate billions with foreign dictators and dubious characters in the name of relief. On stage were former Hewlett Packard executive Carly Fiorina, former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore, South Carolina Sen.
Hillary Clinton won’t be watching either of the first two Republican debates, her campaign said on Wednesday.
The federal government needs to secure the border before it can address immigrants living here illegally already, he said.
– Fiorina: “Not trustworthy, no accomplishment”.
Ms. Clinton said she expected the candidates, if asked about voter ID laws, to “give lip service” to the idea that many people are attempting vote illegally, something she cast doubt on.
On the Iran nuclear deal proposal, Graham said, “We need somebody ready to be commander-in-chief on day 1, who understands there are no moderates in Iran – they’ve been killed a long time ago”.
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R): “Socialist and government dependent”.
“I will fight for comprehensive immigration reform with a path to full and equal citizenship”, said the Democratic presidential candidate to cheers from an estimated 300 supporters inside a sweltering La Rumba nightclub.
At stake for Republicans is not just the candidate who will represent them in the general election, but the direction the party will take as it seeks to regain the White House.
Also on stage was former Pennsylvania Sen. “My heart has not changed because I’ve always been appalled by abortion”, Pataki said.
“Did any of you get a phone call from Bill Clinton?” she asked.
Fox News will host the main debate at 9 p.m., consisting of the 10 candidates that have polled the best in national surveys, including the number one spot taken up by billionaire real estate mogul, Donald Trump.
“I know that this is a serious problem, but it falls disproportionately on the African American community”, Ms. Clinton said.
