34 percent less likely to vote Trump after Khan attacks

Trump drew a crowd of 15,000 at a rally in Jacksonville this week, but veterans from the Union Veterans Council said they didn’t see how Trump could pull himself out of the grave he had dug in his relationship with vets. The plan is not final, but the official says the group may include former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani. “Donald Trump couldn’t even name a single sacrifice he has made”.

Party chair Reince Priebus, a close friend of Ryan, is deeply irritated by Trump’s recent actions and his unwillingness to listen to the advice of senior advisers. He calls Trump out for saying “stupid things” and for praising House Speaker Paul Ryan’s primary opponent.

“I really would like him to explain why he paid Chinese workers to make Trump ties”, she told employees in Denver, “instead of deciding to make those ties right here in Colorado”.

Ryan has outraised Nehlen 17-to-1 in the district, secured a host of endorsements and enjoys high favorability ratings among Republicans.

“You only have four minutes”, Ghazala Khan told her husband.

“She’s my editor, my program manager, my source of strength”, Khan said on Tuesday.

“He is a new candidate”, Giuliani said of Trump.

“I say, ‘Mike, you like him? Yes”.

“He said: ‘It’s more money than we can afford, but I want you to have it for your campaign, ‘ ” Trump said.

Trump’s comments appeared to represent the most dramatic break yet with a Republican establishment whose support for their presidential nominee has been reluctant at best. Trump did not go into details.

Walker left the race in September 2015 with this message: “I encourage other Republican presidential candidates to consider doing the same so that the voters can focus on a limited number of candidates who can offer a positive, conservative alternative to the current front-runner” – a reference to Trump. But he said it is the kind of claim often made by people who don’t end up winning elections.

“The candidate is in control of his campaign”, campaign chairman Paul Manafort told the Fox News Network Wednesday afternoon. Hillary Clinton raised about $90 million over the same period.

Grassley also said he was proud to be “friends with a family of Muslim faith from Cedar Falls” whose son is an officer in the US armed forces. “This was much easier, ‘” Trump said. The Democratic Party, their supporters and all immigrants who call the United States their home should be grateful for Khizr Khan’s defence of liberty, equality and justice as laid down in the American constitution. Anxious Republicans, meanwhile, struggled to move attention from their own infighting to Democratic foe Hillary Clinton.

Ryan reported $9.56 million cash on hand as of July 20. Vets make up 12 percent of the state’s total population.

That absurd response stirred social media to rain down scorn on Trump.

Trump’s remarks came after a string of court rulings blocking enforcement of voter identification laws enacted by Republican governors and legislatures.

“(Capt. Khan’s) sacrifice – and that of Khizr and Ghazala Khan – should always be honored.

“It shouldn’t take Donald Trump for our communities to stand with the women who have built and shaped them”, Murabit tweeted Wednesday.

But Johnson refused to withdraw his support of Trump.

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) – Donald Trump’s warning that the November election might be rigged is “ridiculous”, President Barack Obama declared on Thursday, wading deeper into the 2016 campaign.

Johnson said her handling of the Benghazi attack and use of a private email server while secretary of state has “completely disqualified” her from being president. And the impact it might have on fragile racial and ethnic relations in the country is a source of concern – and not just for Republicans looking askance at their party’s standard bearer. Yet the Republican candidate cited it again during his ME appearance, insisting that the Iranian government released the footage to “embarrass our country”.

Trump’s comments “create a clear and present danger”, says Hayden.

Clinton, meanwhile, kept up her assault on Trump’s business practices, holding up a Trump-branded tie as she spoke at the Knotty Tie Company in battleground Colorado.
