Hillary Clinton: ISIS is ‘rooting for Donald Trump’

“It is a game to him”. The Daily Caller cited Twitter users who said they were irked that Lauer interrupted Clinton. The RNC has been sending out emails every day noting the number of days since Hillary’s last formal press conference.

Hillary Clinton insists that Islamic State extremists are “rooting” for Donald Trump.

“That is a gift for ISIS and that is what Matt Olsen, who knows more about this than the Republicans trying to somehow muddy the waters, very clearly stated”, she said.

At the televised forum on Wednesday night, Trump said he was “shocked” by information he got during the briefing.

Lauer interjected and said: “You said you think they’re going to cheat”.

While Clinton holds only narrow, within-the-margin-of-error leads in battleground states such as Florida, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, Morning Consult has seen voter sentiment shifting since its last deep look at the Electoral College in July. And she pointed out that, once again, he spent his time in public praising Vladimir Putin: “Bizarrely, once again he praised Russia’s strongman Vladimir Putin, even taking the astonishing step of suggesting he prefers the Russian president to our American president”.

A senior adviser said ahead of the speech that Trump would make sure the additional spending was fully paid for but did not explain how.

Trump responded Thursday during an event in Cleveland.

“Sure, I do. But she won’t”, he told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt. “That was a disaster”, he told Lauer.

Trump claimed that he had always been against the 2003 invasion of Iraq, but repeated that he thought the United States should have taken the country’s oil.

Trump leveled unusually harsh criticism against the military in a move likely to enrage the brass in the Defense Department.

“What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?”

Clinton, meanwhile, demonstrated her fluency on foreign policy at Wednesday night’s forum, but still found herself defending her record. “I was totally against the war in Iraq”, said Trump Wednesday night.

“I hate media-on-media violence, but Trump’s support for the invasion of Iraq has been rather well documented”.

During the forum, Clinton faced questions about her private email server, her judgment and her vote as a Senator from NY for the Iraq War while her opponent, Donald Trump, was quizzed about his plan to combat ISIS and whether his administration would allow undocumented immigrants to serve in the military.
