McConnell: GOP chances to keep Senate are ‘very dicey’
“We believe that Donald Trump’s divisiveness, recklessness, incompetence, and record-breaking unpopularity risk turning this election into a Democratic landslide”, said a draft of the letter obtained by Politico.
But in a tweet Friday criticizing CNN’s coverage, he said the network reported his claim “so seriously”. The party chair also told Trump to say on message.
After trouncing 16 challengers in the Republican primary, Trump is encountering worrying signs as his campaign moves into the general election. But the allegation had elicited fresh concerns about Trump’s relationship with the truth and his preparedness to be commander in chief. Asked specifically about USA citizens, Trump told the Miami Herald that he didn’t like that Obama and others wanted to try them in traditional courts.
The letter cited various actions by Trump that the signers said have “alienated millions of voters of all parties”.
Federal law generally prohibits USA citizens from being prosecuted in military tribunals. He’d added Clinton to the mix by noting her initial support for the Iraq War and her ties to Obama’s policies as his first-term secretary of state. Asked how he planned to reverse Clinton’s advantage, Trump said he simply planned to do “the same thing I’m doing right now”. The group began as Iraq’s local affiliate of al-Qaida, the group that attacked the USA on September 11, 2001.
Dozens of frightened Republicans are signing onto a letter urging the Republican National Committee to cut off financial help to presidential candidate Donald Trump before his controversial and unconventional campaign sinks vulnerable Senate and House incumbents.
Apparently, Trump himself will not attend the meeting, but a senior official in the campaign, Karen Giorno, will.
The Republican presidential nominee is straying from his signature bravado as he campaigns in the battleground state of Florida, even telling a gathering of evangelical ministers Thursday he’s “having a tremendous problem in Utah”.
“Only the immediate shift of all available RNC (Republican National Convention) resources to vulnerable Senate and House races will prevent the GOP from drowning with a Trump-emblazoned anchor around its neck”.
“And I mean, if it is true, that’s OK too because all I have to do is stop funding the Republican Party”.
