Obama on Trump winning: ‘Anything’s possible’

“Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed admiration for Vladimir Putin”, Obama said in an excerpt of the interview that will air in full on Wednesday.

US Vice President Joe Biden accused Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump of being an opportunist who had no clue about how to make America great.

“Let me say something that has nothing to do with politics”, Biden continued, before launching into an attack on Trump that seemed to have at least a little to do with politics.

“If we build walls and disrespect our closest neighbors, we will quickly see all this progress disappear – replaced by a return of anti-Americanism and a corrosive rift throughout our hemisphere”, Biden said in a June speech, via CBS News.

Earlier on Wednesday, Trump encouraged the Russians to obtain Clinton’s emails from her private server, a statement that shocked and anxious national security observers.

“Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing”, Trump told reporters. “And I think they recognize that being president is a serious job”.

The president visited Kenya for the first time previous year since his election in 2009.

Al Jazeera correspondent Kimberly Halkett said the Democratic Party was able “to pivot” and attack Trump on his request for Russian Federation to hack Clinton’s emails. “A man who confuses bluster with strength, we simply can not let that happen as Americans. The problems is this email controversy, that seems to cloud Clinton’s campaign, just won’t go away”.

The leak was a howling embarrassment for the Democrats at their convention this week in Philadelphia.

They have contrasted Clinton’s long experience and foreign policy skills with Trump’s maverick position on global relations, which Clinton campaign chair John Podesta has described as. “Where’s the Outrage?” The phrase that caught Trump Jr.’s attention was “that is not the America I know”. “She’ll finish the job – and she’ll do it without resorting to torture, or banning entire religions from entering our country”.
