“We can not let this evil continue”, Trump said in Florida on Monday after the capture of a USA naturalized citizen of Afghan descent suspected of planting a series of bombs in NY and New Jersey over the weekend, and the stabbing of nine people in a separate attack in a Minnesota mall on Saturday in an attack claimed by ISIS.
“They are hoping and praying that Hillary Clinton becomes president so that they can continue their savagery and murder”, Trump stated.
Speaking to reporters on the tarmac of the Westchester County Airport in White Plains, New York Monday morning, the Democratic presidential candidate said her opponent’s bombastic language has aided our enemies.
“We must also use whatever lawful methods are available to obtain information from the apprehended suspect to get information before it’s no longer timely”, Trump said.
The comments come just a few days after a New York Times/CBS News poll showed Clinton and Trump in a statistical tie.
Clinton and her team see her experience and what they say is her steady judgment as key selling points for her candidacy. The real estate mogul has condemned that story and one of his former girlfriends, who was at the center of the story, dismissed the portrayal of her and her relationship with Trump.
“Hillary Clinton has backed President Obama’s failed ISIS strategy to the hilt, and voters should know whether she too shares the White House’s troubling assessment of the situation”, spokesman Miller said.
The United States presidential elections are only eight weeks away and the most recent polls are taking a somewhat definitive turn except there’s a miracle between now and 8th November. Trump is insisting the US should “use whatever lawful methods are available” to get information from the Afghan immigrant arrested in this weekend’s bombings. At Temple University, she acknowledged she needs to do more to get millennials on board. “She calls the patriotic Americans who support our campaign, many of them cops and soldiers, deplorable and irredeemable – and she means it”, he told thousands of supporters gathered in Estero. A Siena poll last month found Clinton had a 25-point lead over Trump in the four-way race in NY.

James Campbell, a professor of political science at the University at Buffalo in NY who has written a book about political polarization, told ABC News that he believes the attacks translate to a potential advantage for Trump. Trump met with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.
