We are running against the very dishonest and totally biased media! A loss there, and he’ll need to sweep all but IL and NY, states firmly in Clinton’s column. Republicans close to his campaign were quoted as saying he was “exhausted, frustrated and still bewildered” by the political process.

Later, amid a flurry of further tweets on the subject, he added: “It is not “freedom of the press” when newspapers and others are allowed to say and write whatever they want even if it is completely false!”
Other Republican operatives and consultants are less kind in their opinion that Donald Trump may have wasted his first months as the presumptive nominee. The wealthy southern coast of CT, made up of tony New York City suburbs, has always been fertile fundraising ground and Trump held an event nearby before the rally.
Tapper pointed out that it wasn’t just the news media that questioned Trump’s claims about gun owners and Clinton, but also fellow Republicans and Trump supporters. “The difference is that Mr. Trump has made it so easy for the media and his opponents”. “The Trump-Pence campaign has all the staffing and resources we need to win in OH, and we are reaching out beyond the Republican base to independents and disaffected Democrats”, he said in a statement.
But Trump set up that address with extensive new complaints about the latest disastrous week of coverage and reports of campaign chaos. He called the report “fiction” and reiterated that he was not about to change what he sees as a winning campaign formula.
Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort criticised the news media for not focusing on what otherwise would have been a substantive week of duelling economic speeches from Trump and Clinton. “We raised over $132 million in the last two months”. The vice president plans to call Donald Trump the most uninformed presidential nominee in history. That number for Trump is even lower: 28 percent. When asked for specifics about his rejection of Trump it seems hardly surprising that a former secretary of commerce would name the economy as his top concern. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, conceded Sunday that the candidate needed to communicate “more effectively”.
“The mainstream media played a critical role in electing President Obama and is now attempting to do it again for Hillary Clinton”.
Steve King on Monday said “the window has passed” for Donald Trump to release his tax returns, and he clarified comments he made last week about being able to work with Hillary Clinton.
Sanford warned that if Trump doesn’t relent, he would be breaking a “long precedent” of presidential candidates, a move that he said would harm transparency in future elections up and down the ballot.

Manafort repeated Trump’s explanation that he is under audit by the Internal Revenue Service. But she said that her rejection of TPP, or any other deal that she deems not up to her standards, is rooted in the belief that America should remain competitive in the global marketplace, while insisting that Trump’s stance borders on isolationism and is rooted in a fear that the US can no longer compete with foreign producers.
