Clinton Campaign Manager Knocks Trump’s Reference to Intel Briefing

“Congress typically doesn’t write $20 million checks for programs without a real mandate”, she said. Trump said in a tweet. “They are Americans and they deserve your respect”.

“To just be grossly generalistic, you can put half of Trump supporters into what I call ‘the basket of deplorables.’ Right?” the Democratic presidential nominee told donors at the event.

But specifics matter here, and when you not only go after people’s beliefs but smear fully half of those who are planning on voting for your opponent as irredeemably “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic” – essentially, as knuckle-dragging Neanderthals – that’s neither supportable nor fair for someone who has pledged to represent all Americans in good faith.

Clinton’s remarks were aired as she and Trump, her Republican rival and a NY native, visited the memorial to the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers.

Of course, while Clinton is taking heat for her comment, Trump’s brand is controversy. “And she wouldn’t be prosecuted”.

Donald Trump is planning to mark the 15th anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks by attending the official commemoration at ground zero.

“As your president I will be the nation’s biggest cheerleader for school choice”, said Trump, speaking from the Cleveland Arts and Social Sciences Academy charter school Thursday afternoon. “It’s like incredible”, he said.

She specified that she believes the word “deplorable” was reasonable to describe much of Trump’s campaign. And he has lifted them up. Unwilling to allow Trump to modify his immigration stances, she said his address later that night in Arizona amounted to a “doubling down on his absurd plan to send a deportation force to round up 16 million people”. “The fact that the only criticism they could have for Hillary Clinton is that she didn’t smile enough at a very serious forum on our veterans, on our national security and on the job of commander in chief just tells you everything you need to know”, Mook said.

Shifting to the other half of Trump supporters, Clinton said many of those people feel like the government doesn’t care about them and who just want change in any form. But while Romney won white voters in the state by 61 percent to 37 percent in 2012, Trump holds a 49 percent to 41 percent lead among whites at this stage.

“I’ve made my share of mistakes”.

Colorado, New Hampshire, and Virginia are three swing states that heavily favor Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton over Republican nominee Donald Trump, according to a Politico analysis released Thursday. “What am I going to do?” the billionaire said.

In his initial days as president, Trump also promised a new battle plan against ISIS.

On Saturday, Clinton’s staff said she attended another fundraiser at the Armonk, New York home of attorney David Boies. She referred to an essay written by Matt Olsen, the former National Counterterrorism Center director, who has argued that by making the Muslim religion a campaign issue, he has given jihadists a great gift.

Clinton’s comments amount to startlingly blunt talk for a candidate that is usually measured in her assessment of the Republican nominee.

The Republican also renewed his praise for Putin and his disdain for President Barack Obama, saying that the Russian enjoyed an 82 percent approval rating.
