Trump Sort Of Apologizes For Calling Elizabeth Warren ‘Pocahontas’
It may in fact be true that Republicans will lose a small percentage of their party’s base because Trump is so racially offensive, but when November rolls around it will not be a significant number. “If Latinos are not free and safe in America, then no ethnic group is free and safe in America”, he said.
Trump made the remark in a free-wheeling, 55-minute speech, giving up the scripted version he tried out recently in a bid to look more conventionally “presidential”. “They’re rapists”, he said about Mexican people immigrating to the U.S. And there’s Trump’s proposition for building a wall to keep immigrants, whom just days ago he referred to as “illegals”, out of the country.
But conference organizer Ralph Reed was adamant in his support for Trump, saying the New Yorker has energized the evangelical vote in a way that past Republican presidential nominees have failed to do. Late last year, White confirmed to TMZ Sports that Trump would get his vote in the next election while outlining a history that dates back to the UFC’s formative years.
Trump has endured a sustained barrage of criticism from his fellow Republicans since he accused a USA federal judge of being biased against him because of his Mexican heritage.
Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee, responded Monday to the Orlando terror attack that left 49 clubgoers and the shooter dead by reiterating his support for a ban on the immigration of Muslims and calling for an expansion to encompass “areas of the world where there’s a proven history of terrorism against the United States, Europe or our allies”.
What might be different when the party’s platform committee begins meeting July 11 is the tone. An April NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll showed that, while both have overall negative ratings, registered voters gave Trump a 71-12 negative rating on having the right temperament to be president, compared with Clinton’s 41-34 positive rating. Asked in an MSNBC interview on Thursday whether she had discussed with Clinton the prospect of being vice president, Warren said she had not, nor had she been vetted.
To understand the depth of the party’s potential loss, scholars point to the dropoff in black Republican voters after the civil rights battles of the 1960s.
In an email to supporters Saturday, he said, “I thank you for everything you’ve shared with me and all the support you’ve given our campaign”.
“As far as people’s identity is anchored to their political ideology it will be impossible for them to extract themselves from the wave that is Donald Trump”, she said. Speaker Paul Ryan called the candidate’s original comments about Curiel “the textbook definition of a racist comment”. “Or maybe Trump will realize how damaging his vitriol is to his Oval Office aspirations”, the Tribune said.
Of the billionaire businessman’s taxes, which Trump has refused to release, Romney says, “there’s something in those taxes that’s even worse than shooting someone on Fifth Avenue”. “And it needs to figure out how to get folks like us in the room”, Cardenas said. “Trump is picking on someone who is ethically bound not to defend himself, exactly what you would expect from a thin-skinned, racist bully”.
Many Republicans remain hopeful that Trump’s popularity on economic and national security issues will overshadow his impolitic comments on race. “We have to use the money to take care of our poorest Americans and work with them, so they can come out of this terrible situation that they’re in”.
Sanders has returned to his hometown of Burlington, Vermont, to spend a quiet weekend before returning to Washington, D.C., for the final contest of the primary campaign on Tuesday.
