Sanders struggles to gain edge in presidential bid
Sometimes, the fights politicians chose to skip reveal as much about them as the ones they decide to wage. “She should apologize. She lies about emails, she lies about Whitewater, she lies about everything”.
Trump responded to the claim on “This Week”, saying: “Knowing the Clintons and knowing Hillary, she made it up”.
She gave her rival, Vermont Sen. But to turn that level of early energy into a national victory, Sanders must find a way to expand his appeal in a race in which economic uncertainty is increasingly taking a back seat to security concerns. Instead, she opted to lacerate Donald Trump and sought to tar the Republican Party brand with his antics.
Top rival Bernie Sanders accused Clinton of being too quick to push for regime change, while Republican candidate Carly Fiorina, said the former secretary of state was too willing to cede USA policy to other countries.
It is clear that the American people, big and small, are gathering behind Bernie.
After a televised debate in August, he posted Twitter messages criticizing Fox News moderator Megyn Kelly and made comments in a television interview that were widely interpreted as referring to her menstrual cycle.
Politifact rated the claim “false”, saying that – while experts say that ISIS could be circulating Trump’s sentiments to bolster their arguments that the West is at war with Islam – there’s no evidence to date that his rhetoric has been used in recruiting videos. I want to apologize to my supporters. All the other candidates not mentioned a single time.
Clinton said Trump was becoming the Islamic State group’s “best recruiter” with his call to temporarily bar Muslims from entering the United States.
ISIS is “going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists”.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump used vulgarity to describe Hillary Clinton’s loss to Barack Obama in the 2008 Democratic presidential race and then derided her over the time she took for a bathroom break during a debate.
In August, she told the AFL-CIO, a powerful union, that she wants to “enhance benefits for our most vulnerable seniors”, including Social Security, and has recently focused on altering benefits so that spouses who live longer aren’t struggling without benefits accrued by their late husbands or wives. When he suggested Clinton couldn’t separate herself from Wall Street, she said he was hypocritical and had “no trouble” raising money from major corporations when he led the Democratic Governors Association. Making sure that Muslim Americans don’t feel left out or marginalized at the very moment when we need their help…. If ISIS was using Trump for recruitment videos, we would expect a frenzy of media coverage over it. And Jeb Bush is going after Trump with a vengeance.
“I believe in action where we put together a strong coalition of forces”, Sanders said.
Trump used the insult during a campaign rally on Monday in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He claimed that U.S.’ priority should be defeating the Islamic State, calling Assad a “secondary issue”.
And although her answer to a question on how her husband Bill Clinton would fit into the role of presidential spouse should she win the White House was lighthearted, her response that “I am probably still going to pick the flowers and the china for state dinners and stuff like that” could perhaps be seized on by GOP opponents as a sign that she is already metaphorically measuring the drapes in the White House.
One of the sharpest exchanges at the debate came when Clinton and Sanders discussed their drastically different approaches on foreign policy.
“This is a watershed election”.
Pierson was trying to clarify his comment and said: “I think he was meaning, like, ‘schlonged to the ground, ‘ ‘schlonged around”. “May the force be with you”, she said.
