“After several failed attempts to pivot into a more serious and presidential mode, Donald Trump has made a decision to double down on his most small, nasty and divisive instincts by turning his campaign over to someone who is best known for running a so-called news site [that traffics in] racist, anti-Muslim, anti-Semitic conspiracy theories”. “I will never forgive the people of Florida and Pennsylvania and OH – but I love them anyway”, Trump said.

A poll released Tuesday from Echelon Insights for the Washington Examiner showed that Clinton earns a whopping 62 percent of the Washington elite’s support.
Instead, he accused Clinton of “bigotry” by seeing “communities of color. only as votes” and “not as individual human beings”.
In his email Trump said he wanted a poll of his own to tout the next time he was being interviewed.
The attempts to sow doubts about the 2016 election results coincided with Trump’s slide in opinion polls against Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton and missteps in his campaign.
Trump’s pitch to the African-American community was offered alongside a muscular message in support of police amid increased racial tensions following the officer-related shooting of an unarmed black man in Milwaukee.
He added: “I won’t be concerned, if I am ever am concerned, about Donald’s campaign until after that”. However, among the 26% who disagreed, Clinton leads by a huge margin (87%-9%).
But, Donald Trump surrogate Joe Gruters tells News Channel 8 there is still time to win it. “‘There are a lot of voters in NY who go for a candidate in one office on this party and a candidate for another office on this party line, so we’ll have to wait and see”. “Democratic crime policies, education policies, and economic policies have produced only more crime, more broken homes, and more poverty”, he alleged.
The Trump campaign also started aggressively raising money fairly late.
“Who can have a problem with that?”
Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks confirms that the campaign will be hitting the airwaves in Florida, Ohio, North Carolina and Pennsylvania – all key states that Trump is hoping to win in November.
Mrs Clinton said at the voter registration event at a Philadelphia high school that she is “not taking anybody anywhere for granted” in the race for the White House, saying the stakes “could not be higher”.
