Many of Clinton’s fundraisers have been closed to the media, but her Friday remarks, preceding a performance by singer Barbra Streisand, were open to journalists.
The televised “Commander-in-Chief” forum on Wednesday, attended by military veterans, was the first time Trump and Clinton had squared off on the same stage since accepting their parties’ White House nominations in July, although they did not appear at the same time.
“For the first time in a long while, her true feelings came out, showing bigotry and hatred for millions of Americans”, the statement continued.
Clinton joked with reporters this week that she has more flag officers backing her campaign, adding, “but who is counting?” Both candidates believe they have the upper hand, with Clinton contrasting her experience with Trump’s unpredictability and the Republican arguing that Americans anxious about their safety will be left with more of the same if they elect Obama’s former secretary of state.
“Unfortunately there are people like that, and he has lifted them up. some of those folks, they are irredeemable, but they are not America”.
Clinton also started 2016 with far more money in the bank than her Republican rival.
Later during the forum, Trump stated that he would convene a panel of generals to help formulate a plan to defeat ISIS and that “they’ll probably be different generals, to be honest with you”.
Donald Trump has arrived at the funeral of conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly. “So I am proud of the people who are supporting me”.
“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters”, Trump said during a campaign rally in January in Iowa.
Hillary Clinton expressed “regret” on Saturday for her remarks a day earlier in which she described half of Donald Trump’s supporters as “a basket of deplorables”.
She said she was “grossly generalistic” in her remarks at the LGBT fundraiser in New York Friday and, she added, “that’s never a good idea”.
Trump has blasted Obama’s policy toward China as weak and said the president was humiliated by the Chinese during his visit to Asia this week.
Donald Trump insists he opposed the Iraq War before it began. “If he doesn’t respect all Americans, how can he serve all Americans?” The group will meet at the New York Historical Society in Manhattan.
She went on to say that “many of Trump’s supporters are hard-working Americans who just don’t feel like the economy or our political system are working for them”. They’re racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic – you name it.
