Trump defends ‘bigot’ label for Clinton
She said Friday that candidates can reasonably disagree on how to run the country, “but that’s not the campaign that Donald Trump has been running, and I am reaching out and asking fair-minded Americans to repudiate this kind of divisive demagoguery”. “He’s taking hate groups mainstream and helping a radical fringe take over the Republican Party”. Trump has 41 percent support among likely voters, while Clinton has 51 percent.
Trump also has been criticized for vowing to deport millions of people living in the United States illegally. “Through it all, he has continued pushing discredited conspiracy theories with racist undertones”.
Hillary Clinton’s Achilles’ heel is her very Clinton-ness. He’s hired people to help him do it: Last week, Trump ousted his former chief strategist Paul Manafort and appointed two new experienced conservative advisors, Kellyanne Conway and Stephen K. Bannon.
It’s said that Grover Cleveland was elected during a time that Washington was dominated by Republicans, as opposed to Democratic presidents coming into office with a Democratic majority in their party. She even invoked an example about Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, pointing out that even he agreed that remarks Trump made about a Mexican-American judge were textbook racism.
“It’s a exhausted, disgusting argument, and it’s so totally predictable”. But how could any high-minded voter choose Trump who hasn’t even provided tax returns for public inspection, let alone demonstrated sound judgment in foreign affairs?
Trump pressed on with trying to broaden his appeal to minority voters on Friday, as he met with Hispanic business leaders at his signature hotel in Las Vegas.
Hillary Clinton is defending the work of her family foundation, saying the organization needs more time to ensure the continuity of their programs. Clinton’s response? She laughed about it on Monday with Jimmy Kimmel, calling it just another part of the Trump camp’s “wacky strategy”.
The poll’s results are important not just for what they say about Florida, but what they suggest about the rest of the country.
In comments broadcast on Fox News on Wednesday night, Trump said he would be willing to work with immigrants who have abided by USA laws while living in the country, backing away from his insistence during the primaries that he would try to deport all 11 million illegal immigrants.
Trump met Thursday in NY with members of a new Republican Party initiative meant to train young – and largely minority – volunteers.
Trump’s efforts were unlikely to draw out minorities in his favor but could reassure some moderate Republicans anxious about his views on race, said Bernard Fraga, a political science professor at Indiana University. As I said earlier, this problem has been getting worse – well, in 2016 it has gotten a lot worse, and we will all pay a price. It will be amusing to see how far members of Congress will go in criticizing Clinton, given that almost all of them. likely extend courtesies to major campaign donors, too.
Clinton, who has denied the influence charges, pressed the argument that Trump lacks the temperament to be president. Questioning again whether Trump has the character to be the U.S. president, she highlighted his ties to the “alt-right” (alternative-right) movement that peddles white nationalism, misogyny, anti-Semitism and xenophobia, describing the movement as “an emerging racist ideology”.
In a video published on Thursday, the Clinton campaign attempt to link Trump to the KKK.
