GOP delegates: Bashing Clinton can’t be only Trump strategy

Hillary Clinton has dismissed the first day of the Republican National Convention as a “surreal” experience – and compared the gathering led by Donald Trump to the classic fantasy film The Wizard of Oz.

Honkala said she will host a “massive bean supper”, deemed “Beans for Hillary”, for Bernie Sanders delegates before Hillary Clinton’s speech to accept the presidential nomination.

Trump has sought to use Clinton’s past support for trade deals against her, arguing that his more protectionist views would better protect U.S.jobs.

Donald trump ignored another political tradition and came to his convention on the first night.

Clinton also benefits from strong support among women and younger voters, while Trump has a slim lead among men.

In fact, a surprising percentage of respondents – 23 percent – said they meant to vote for a third-party candidate.

As for Kasich, Christie said, “He made a promise”.

Donald Trump’s convention was a complete fiasco and the poor execution of an event that had been heavily planned provided valuable insight for voters into how Trump would run the country.

Clinton “knew nearly immediately this was Ansar Al Sharia, a radical Islamic terrorist group and yet she said privately something different”.

“She went to the Kremlin and gave them that stupid reset button”, Christie said, mocking Clinton’s diplomatic record and the email scandal in one punch.

Chris Christie has spent the last six and a half years serving as New Jersey’s governor. “Lots of sound and fury – even a fog machine”, Clinton told 6,000 people at the convention of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees in Las Vegas.

Instead of focusing on the state of the economy – the theme of the night in Cleveland was “Make America Work Again” – Christie joined a chorus of Republicans who used the pulpit to continue knocking Clinton as they had the night before during a national security focused evening.

“She was America’s chief diplomat”, Christie said early in his fiery speech.

Clinton’s top campaign aides believe that the way to beat Trump in November is to not only stoke voters’ distrust of him, but to cast a vote for him as a vote for putting the United States in danger. In 2012, Republican nominee Mitt Romney jumped by about 5 percentage points in the Reuters/Ipsos poll following the Republican convention. “And that’s what we want our governor to do”.
