“We will do whatever is necessary for as long as it takes to bring ISIS to justice and end their reign of terror once and for all”, Clinton pledged. Starting this week, she has begun flying on the same plane the reporters who travel with campaign and held informal news conferences, known as gaggles, onboard her plane on Monday and Tuesday.
Trump, trying emphasize his military support, released a letter from 88 retired generals and admirals citing an urgent need for a “course correction” in America’s national security policy.
The military leaders write, “We believe that such a change can only be made by someone who has not been deeply involved with, and substantially responsible for, the hollowing out of our military and the burgeoning threats facing our country around the world”.
Now, Clinton is estimated to have the support of 45.4 per cent of decided voters, followed closely by Trump at 42.2 per cent.
Democrats have pounded Trump on national security and aggressively warned voters that he lacks the temperament to control the world’s most powerful military. And while a majority of Trump’s supporters (55 percent) say they would trust him more on nuclear weapons policy, a sizable minority (31 percent) says they would not trust either candidate.
But Trump was unflinchingly critical of Clinton over the latest disclosures from the Federal Bureau of Investigation about her use of a private email server and destruction of thousands of emails that she and her staff had deemed of a personal nature.
Meanwhile, Clinton’s campaign released a new television ad entitled, “Sacrifice”, showing military veterans watching some of the NY businessman’s more provocative statements. In 2008, Barack Obama and John McCain made a joint appearance at the site in NY. The ad, which features former Georgia senator Max Cleland, a triple-amputee who served in Vietnam, also keys on Mr Trump’s assertion that he has sacrificed a lot compared with families who have lost loved ones in conflict.
Clinton is up by 5 points or less in Florida, Virginia, Ohio, Nevada and North Carolina, with larger cushions in Colorado, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and New Hampshire.

Trump spoke in an interview aired Tuesday on ABC’s “Good Morning America”.
“I take classification seriously”, she said.
“I guess we should be glad it was only a Twitter war”, Kaine added, noting that soon Trump could have the USA armed forces at his disposal. Clinton, meanwhile, accused Trump of insulting America’s veterans and pressing risky military plans around the globe. Just 46 percent said they would be confident.
Hillary Clinton’s campaign fired back at Donald Trump’s suggestion that Clinton didn’t have a “presidential look”.
The former secretary of state said she is concerned about “credible reports about Russian government interference in our elections”. The location was not announced.
The Republican presidential nominee attacked Hillary Clinton as he courted veterans Tuesday in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
She’ll also urge people not to miss the state’s October 17 deadline to register to vote.
“People are starting to tune in and focus in a more concentrated way on the election after Labor Day, and it makes sense from the Clinton perspective to really home in on where they have a relative strength”, Sevugan said.

MUIR: Let me ask you about what one of your top surrogates said in the last 24 hours, Rudy Giuliani said that Donald Trump would, quote, “find it very hard to throw a family that’s been here in the United States for 15 years with kids who are now American citizens, out of this country”, that “that is not the America that Donald Trump wants”.
