Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump talks with press, Monday, Sept. 5, 2016, aboard his campaign plane, while flying over OH, as Vice presidential candidate Gov. Mike Pence, R-Ind., left, looks on.
Meanwhile, Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine is trying to move past Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during her time as secretary of state.
Clinton was arriving in OH and IL aboard a new blue-and-white Boeing 737 campaign plane emblazoned with her slogan, “Stronger Together”.
Earlier Monday, Clinton took steps to seemingly answer more press questions, by including her traveling press corps on the same plane on which she flies. “It’s so exciting”, she told journalists as they boarded her plane. Kaine called Trump “a guy who’s been sitting up in the penthouse and doesn’t even understand the everyday lives of working folks”.
“They’re an important element in what we’re doing”, he said. All the way to and through Election Day.
Clinton powered through a coughing fit at a Labor Day festival at a Cleveland park, sharply criticizing Trump’s recent trip to Mexico as “an embarrassing worldwide incident”.
“They have two huge liabilities that I think the debate is crucial for each of them”, said Dowd. “Just shows you how important OH is”.
Donald Trump says America’s manufacturing jobs are “going to hell”. “The problem that Clinton has is there is no positive information flow for her campaign”.
The same poll found that 46 percent of likely voters believed Clinton would better handle the economy and 44 percent of likely voters thought Trump would have a more positive effect.
“I hope you guys are ready”, Clinton joked with the traveling press.
Upon departing, he took questions from reporters on his plane, saying that job creation will be his big campaign message for the day and that he looks forward to the upcoming debates with Clinton.
Clinton was flying to events in OH and IL on Monday in a light blue-and-white campaign plane with her press corps. Democrats are also confident that if Clinton wins in some of the most contested state such as New Hampshire, North Carolina and Nevada, she’ll bring along the party’s Senate candidates.
Trump’s rebound from a series of self-inflicted wounds has followed the hiring of a new campaign management team, and the Republican nominee is showing more discipline on the stump, reading his rally speeches from teleprompters.
“If Trump loses OH he loses the race”, Brown told AFP. “Donald Trump is clearly someone who would lead us down a very negative path”.

There is new reaction to Donald Trump’s immigration policy and whether he’s shifting his plan to deport more illegal immigrants than he previously stated. Green Party nominee Jill Stein is on the ballot in about half. “I’ve seen people do so much prep work that when they get out there they can’t speak”. “You’re fighting a lot of different forces”.
