Donald Trump promises ‘no more Mr. Nice Guy’
Our power doesn’t come from some self-declared savior promising that he alone can restore order, as long as we do things his way. “Now we’ve got to figure out: What do we do next? And they should set off alarm bells for all of us”.
Clinton’s three-day bus tour moves on to Harrisburg Friday night.
Experts predict that “negative partisanship” – voting against a candidate – will play a major role in deciding who makes it to the White House. Speaker after speaker seemed to be sending the message that it is not American to build a wall, bar an entire religion from entering the country, and denigrate people based on their looks or disabilities. We are stronger together….
With chants of “Hell no DNC, we won’t vote for Hillary” and “Lock her up”, the protesters made it clear they would not be casting their votes for Hillary Clinton. “We’ve got to make this economy work for everyone – not just those at the top”. With Clinton, Obama said, there has never been a man or a woman more qualified to serve as president.
We take you as a man of your word and we certainly don’t want Trump to be president either.
On their way through the Keystone state and into OH the duo stopped in Pittsburgh.
After touring the company, Clinton and Kaine spoke to voters on the factory floor surrounded by large machinery and injection molding presses. Let me ask you, have you even read the United States Constitution? In a tweet he revealed he was talking about former NY mayor Michael Bloomberg, who blasted Trump Wednesday night and called on Americans to elect “a sane, competent person for president”.
During the Clinton speech itself, the Trump campaign fired off angry emails at the rate of one every four minutes – 15 of them in less than an hour – criticizing Clinton on topics ranging from immigration policy to the Middle East to the Clinton Foundation. “We don’t resent success in America but we do resent people who take advantage of others”. In Philadelphia, Clinton was boosted by the soaring rhetoric of Obama, the stem-winding address weaved by her husband, former President Bill Clinton and a moving appeal from first lady Michelle Obama to remember the impact an election can have on children. Trump’s nomination might have been a rebellion against the Republican elite, but once he got the nomination he had to deal with a revolt against his revolt – indicating that both of America’s main parties are fracturing.
According Spredfast’s analysis of Twitter data, sentiment during Clinton’s speech was far more positive than during Republican nominee Donald Trump’s acceptance of the Republican Party’s nomination a week earlier. “The family I’m from, well no one had their name on big buildings”, Clinton said in a reference to Trump, whose name is plastered across his properties. Campaign spokesman Nick Merrill said the newly disclosed breach affected a Democratic National Committee voter analysis program used by the campaign and other organizations. The Democrats even had a lot more “showbiz” than Donald Trump promised but might not have quite delivered.
Clinton has often been criticized for failing to paint a vivid, Elizabeth Warren-style picture of why the economy isn’t working for everyone-that it isn’t just an unfortunate turn of events, but the result of political decisions that favor the rich. On Thursday night, she came closer, telling struggling Americans, “I believe that our economy isn’t working the way it should because our democracy isn’t working the way it should”.
Many more examples of narrative-defying messages abound, and Republican elites were beside themselves as this new reality began to dawn on them. Pulitzer Prize-winning author and presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin said it “mystifies” her that it took this long.
