In a preview clip of an interview with CBS anchor Charlie Rose that’s set to air Tuesday, the former secretary of state slammed Trump over what she characterized as “simplistic, easy answers” to major problems.

“Donald insults Mexican immigrants, even an American judge born of Mexican heritage”. Donald Trump demeans women. Some said she didn’t mention a video.

Trump is now leading among MI independent voters, 25 percent to 21 percent over Clinton, but Clinton’s lead can be directly attributed to her strength with Democrats at 71 percent support, compared to Trump’s support among Republicans at 63 percent support. However, his announcement came just two weeks ahead of the Democratic convention in Philadelphia.

Sixty-one percent said they have a somewhat unfavorable or unfavorable view of Trump, with 52 percent saying the same about Clinton.

That’s right: Hillary for prison.

She also announced a nationwide voter mobilisation goal to register and commit to vote more than 3 million voters to be a part of this campaign.

While two survivors of the Benghazi attack were on stage recounting their ordeal to rapturous applause, Fox News viewers were watching Trump badmouthing Ohio Gov. John Kasich for skipping the convention. But none presented evidence against her that several committees had not previously found as Trump seeks new lines of attack.

“Donald Trump is everything Hillary Clinton is not”. Clinton had the near inverse of those numbers: 59% said she was qualified, while 39% said she was not.

The 2014 shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, unleashed widespread protests, some violent, about fatal police shootings. We need police officers to help us make progress.

Night one’s speakers universally tried to make the case that Trump is a strong leader and that Hillary Clinton is unfit to be president. “But that dream never came to fruition”, Chris Wyant, Hillary for OH state director, said.

The NAACP gave her a warm welcome yesterday. Was this an argument that Clinton lied before Congress in her testimony about Benghazi?
