To many political commentators, the idea that Trump would suggest that a woman who is a former first lady, former senator, and former secretary of state is only considered electable because she is a woman looks politically suicidal.

When questioned about his comments by Kelly, Trump shot back, “only Rosie O’Donnell”.
Meanwhile, it’s worth noting Clinton does, in fact, shout her messages from time to time with excitement and energy, as her supporters cheer loudly throughout packed stadiums. But that’s how paternalism works-Daddy Trump gets to decide who gets rewarded and who gets punished.
Donald Trump’s continued personal attacks on his rivals comes only days after Trump’s new campaign manager Paul Manafort had to defend his statement that Trump was evolving his persona to be more policy-oriented: “The negatives will come down”.

It allows Hillary Clinton, for instance, to charge in a debate that Sanders can not give just one example of how campaign money from Wall Street had ever influenced any decision she ever made. “I am sure she will take it forward as president, as President Obama has done”.
