Somalis in Maine strike back after Trump’s comments at rally
Trump shocked Republicans this week when he refused to endorse Ryan in Tuesday’s Republican primary in Wisconsin, but Ryan is brushing it off. Ryan himself hesitated for weeks before ultimately endorsing Trump. He has skipped from one misstep to the next, sparking a fresh wave of Republican defections among longtime party loyalists who refuse to support their presidential nominee – including some who even publicly support for Democrat Hillary Clinton.
The charges came soon after Clinton addressed her own political vulnerabilities while facing a group of minority journalists in Washington.
Secretary of State John Kerry denied any such video exists, and Trump later said the video he was hyping was actually news footage from Geneva. Tom Cotton, a Republican who’s endorsed Trump but has at times parted from the GOP nominee.
Clinton also acknowledged many people don’t trust her. He said “Donald Trump and I are standing shoulder to shoulder to say to the American people, ‘We can be strong again'”.
A Ryan aide said: “We have no knowledge of this and it’s a question for their campaign”.
Trump has refused to endorse Ryan and praised Nehlen, giving him a burst of attention before Tuesday’s primary.
“I don’t think that people are gonna trade that for an interloper for these scam PACs and out of state campaigns, who just make stuff up”, he said.
Trump also tried to mend relations with two Republican senators whom he’d criticized after they faulted him for attacking the Khans: John McCain of Arizona and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire.
The Labor Department reported Friday that USA employers added a healthy 255,000 jobs in July, a sign of confidence that could point to a resilient economy.
“In the intelligence business, we would say that Mr. Putin had recruited Mr. Trump as an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation”, wrote Morell.
Donald Trump is making a rare admission he was wrong – in claiming he saw a video of a US cash payment going to Iran. It was delivered on the same day that Iran released four Americans they had detained.
In a radio interview Friday morning, Ryan did not rule out withdrawing his endorsement of Trump.
US President Barack Obama’s administration has repeatedly insisted the payment was not ransom for the release of the US prisoners, but a separate settlement to resolve a dispute over a 1979 arms deal that was not fulfilled because of the Islamic Revolution.
Fighting with the family of a dead soldier It’s not a good look to begin with, and Trump dug the hole deeper by saying he was only hitting back after the parents of U.S. Army Capt. Humayun Khan first launched “vicious” attacks on him at the Democratic National Convention.
In Iowa, he blamed the “dishonest” media for the fuss over an incident earlier in the week in which he asked a screaming baby to leave a rally.
“I hope Americans understand that the remarks do not represent the views of our Republican Party, its officers, or candidates”, McCain said in a almost 700-word statement.
