Obama campaign machine revving up to elect Clinton
Taylor Griffin, a Republican former aide to President George W. Bush who unsuccessfully sought a seat in Congress this year, said Trump has been effective in building support among tea party activists, who have played an important role in GOP elections since 2010, and conservatives longing for an outsider.
The foe-to-friend story will be at the center of the Obama-Clinton show in Charlotte, North Carolina, aides to both say.
Clinton’s Republican presidential rival objected to the travel plan.
“How can the President of the United States campaign with someone his own administration is investigating”, questioned NCGOP Chairman Robin Hayes. But Donald Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee, isn’t almost as happy with the president’s offering.
Pence spokesman Marc Lotter said Sunday that the two couples had a “warm, productive” meeting before Pence returned to Indiana.
The FBI recommended no charges and the attorney general has said she’ll accept the recommendations of career Justice Department prosecutors.
“And Donald, if you are out there tweeting, it is Hawaii”, she said, making a quick jab at her Republican rival, Donald Trump, and the conspiracy theories he has espoused about Obama’s birthplace.
Trump’s campaign has not begun advertising in the general election anywhere in the country. Hillary Clinton is now talking about the Federal Bureau of Investigation interview that took 3 and a half hours this weekend.
In a televised interview from the US embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, McCain says he didn’t think either candidate had the “necessary strategy and outlook” to succeed as commander in chief.

The senators spoke on CBS “Face the Nation”. Still, Comey’s scathing criticism of Clinton – he called her “extremely careless” in her handling of classified information – ensures the matter will continue to hang over her campaign.
“Trust” is on the lips of Democrats because it’s a remarkable vulnerability that persists for Clinton, despite and because of her decades of public life.
On Sunday’s news shows, Sen.
Neither former Presidents Bill Clinton or George W.

The FBI is probing her use of a private email server.
New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker is no longer flatly denying that he’s being vetted as a potential running mate for presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. He said the continuity between Obama’s campaign and Clinton’s was proving it can be sustained.
It’s possible that Democrats won’t want Booker plucked from his Senate seat: New Jersey’s Republican governor, Chris Christie, would pick Booker’s replacement if he leaves for the White House.
The lawmakers’ endorsement for the process follows Clinton’s meeting Saturday with investigators at the FBI’s Washington headquarters, where she answered questions for three and a half hours as part of the probe into use of her private email server.
The timing of the trip pulls the president into a controversy he has at times tried to keep at arm’s length, and the White House said he wouldn’t address the investigation during his speech at the rally. He added that no criminal charges would be referred to the Justice Department.
Clinton tells NBC’s “Meet the Press” that she has no knowledge of any timeline for the review.
