Obama says Trump ‘unfit’ for presidency

Mr Trump has been sharply criticised for attacking the parents of a fallen U.S. soldier who spoke out against him. Both are Trump allies.

Add Ed Brookover to the list of senior Trump campaign advisers who now must add the word “former” to their campaign titles. “That’s all I have to say about it”, he told the Washington Post.

According to Gallup, Obama has a 53 per cent approval rating – exactly what Ronald Reagan had at this stage in his presidency, lower than Dwight Eisenhower or Bill Clinton, but 20 percentage points higher than George W. Bush and 21 percentage points higher than the current favourability rating of Trump. Ryan has been among those urging Republicans to rally around Trump, despite concerns about his candidacy.

Nehlen held a news conference Wednesday in Ryan’s hometown of Janesville, Wisconsin.

Those who have worked with him say that in private meetings he can often appear amenable to putting a controversy aside. He has no endorsements from any previous Republican presidents. Nehlen is running his first campaign.

“We are a leading proponent of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, an effort we can’t-and won’t-give up on”, Chamber President Tom Donohue said at an event honoring Lee on Monday night.

But Republicans control both chambers of Congress for the remainder of Obama’s term, so they generally decide what gets a vote and what doesn’t. “Donald Trump can not be elected president”, Bradshaw said. “I said so last week”.

Trump responded with an e-mailed statement on Obama’s “failed leadership”, saying Obama and Clinton “destabilized the Middle East, handed Iraq, Libya and Syria to ISIS, and allowed our personnel to be slaughtered at Benghazi”.

If either of them ‘had they won, I would have been disappointed, but I would have said to all Americans that this is our president, ‘ the president stated.

“There has to come a point in which you say “enough”, he said, in a comment directed at Republicans. Trump did not go into details. John McCain and Mitt Romney – but never an outright sense they were unfit to serve. But he said it is the kind of claim often made by people who don’t end up winning elections.

“If in fact Russian Federation engaged in this activity, it’s just one on a long list of issues that me and Mr. Putin talk about”, Obama said.

Mr Trump has also been condemned for his comments that appeared to back the Russian annexation of Crimea. He now has $37 million cash-on-hand.

It was a move championed by Ms Clinton during her role as secretary of state in the president’s first term.

Trump is leaning on small donors to finance the bulk of his presidential run.

On Twitter, #TrumpSacrifices hashtag used Khan’s comment to mock Trump’s (lack of) sacrifices for his country.

But Johnson refused to withdraw his support of Trump. This was apparently Pierson’s only point, so she’s disregarding the timeline mess. “It does not turn completely upside down”, he said.

“The Republican nominee is unfit to serve as president”, Obama said. The other factor is the nominee’s behavior.

The spot was released by Priorities USA, a Super PAC supporting Clinton.

President Barack Obama strongly rebuked Donald Trump Tuesday, calling the Republican presidential nominee “unfit” for the presidency following his criticism of the family of a slain Muslim U.S. soldier.

Obama last week addressed the Democratic convention in Philadelphia and painted this election as a choice not between a Democrat and Republican, but a Democrat and a demagogue who threatens democracy.

And even as Obama discussed trade policy and security issues with the Singaporean prime minister, Trump criticized world leaders.

Pierson’s attack on Obama was extremely curious, as he wasn’t even a senator at the time and Clinton was serving as a junior senator herself representing the state of NY.

Four minutes into his speech he accused Clinton of lying to Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday, as chants of “Lock her up!” filled the auditorium. And that’s not just my opinion; that is the opinion of many prominent Republicans. “I urge all Republicans to reject Donald Trump this November”.

His campaign one-liner is to “Make America Great Again”.
