Trump roiled the presidential race weeks ago when he branded Mexican illegal aliens rapists and criminals, sparking a feud with his GOP rivals that intensified after his dismissive comments about Arizona Sen.

Businessman Donald Trump has surged to 28 percent support in an Economist/YouGov poll of the 2016 Republican presidential field – double his closest competitor.
Though known for his iconic comb over, Trump decided to cover up his mystifying hairdo with something equally as amusing: a crisp white baseball cap that read “Make America Great Again”.
In recent years, he’s called for a hefty tax on imports, criticized North American and South Korean trade deals and said Ford should be penalized for expanding operations in Mexico.
“I would of course love to be on the debate stage, but we’re going to keep going with or without it”, she told reporters afterward.
Clay Mulford, Perot’s son-in-law and political adviser, said a third-party run from Trump has the potential to energize a part of the electorate that’s itching for a fresh face. Laredo’s population is 95.6% Hispanic or Latino. “I employ thousands and thousands of Hispanics”. “It’s going to be about a discipline for me on how to most effectively communicate in a group of 10 people with a couple moderators in a short period of time“.
“There’s great danger with the illegals”, the Republican presidential contender said.
Fox News has yet to release the format and ground rules for the two-hour debate. Laredo officials appeared delighted to have a celebrity in their midst. “The excitement that he brings is also very on the plus side for our city”. The League of United Latin American Citizens staged a protest.
Trump, meanwhile, visited the bridge over the Rio Grande instead of accompanying Border Patrol agents on a tour of border facilities, as had been originally scheduled.
“In light of statements made by Donald Trump, which are inconsistent with Macy’s values, we have decided to discontinue our business relationship with Mr. Trump and will phase-out the Trump menswear collection, which has been sold at Macy’s since 2004″.
An unfazed Trump claimed the union had been silenced by bosses in Washington. “He said what everybody’s thinking but is afraid to say out loud”. “The RNC has been, I think, very foolish”, Trump told The Hill in an exclusive interview at the Trump Tower on Wednesday.
“Easily, she’s the worst secretary of state in the history of our country”.
“I don’t think you overthink it. You prepare, you show strength and focus on your message and your own record”, said a senior Bush adviser.
The former reality TV star has hogged the headlines with outlandish remarks and media stunts, lampooning rivals, insulting career politicians and castigating illegal immigrants.
Companies such as Macy’s, Univision and NBC have cut ties with Trump, but the mogul has refused to tone down his rhetoric. McCain was shot down during the Vietnam War and spent more than 5 yrs as a POW (prisoner of war).
