“It’s extraordinary to think of it”, Pence said.
Donald Trump told mourners at a funeral service for conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly that she promoted the idea that the “little person” can beat “the rigged system”. “You know, I wish the first time it was done correctly”.
“So I won’t stop calling out bigotry and racist rhetoric in this campaign”. “That’s the single greatest achievement of Hillary Clinton”, said Trump, who has never held elected office. An audience member shouted back, “That’s right!”
It is more than just numbers when it comes to campaign funds as they dictate how much should be spent on staff and thus a successful team to ensure the voters come out to show support.
“They are Americans, and they deserve your respect”, he tweeted.
Trump took the stage Friday before a fiery crowd of supporters who had just heard a blistering and vitriolic critique of Clinton’s email use from Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor and federal prosecutor who loudly argued that Clinton had committed “crimes” and should have been prosecuted.
“It’s concerning that Donald Trump was potentially sharing information that he learned in his briefing”, Mook said on ” Good Morning America”. “Right?” Clinton reportedly said to laughter and applause.
“The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic – you name it”, Clinton continued after some light cheering and laughter. “And unfortunately there are people like that”.
He added that millions of Americans support the Republican nominee because, “they are sick of corrupt career politicians like Hillary Clinton”.
Responding to a question, Trump called Clinton a “bad person” and alleged that she would be a “disaster” for evangelicals.
Asked about her promise to not put troops in Iraq, she reiterated her belief that “putting a big contingent of American grounds troops on the ground in Iraq and Syria would not be in the best interest in the fight against ISIS an other terrorist groups”. “Well, let me say as the proud father of a United States Marine, anyone who said that, anyone who did that should be disqualified from ever serving as commander in chief of the armed forces of the United States of America”.
On Clinton’s foreign policy recored, Pence said nothing about her 2011 speech in Geneva when Clinton declared “gay rights are human rights” – remarks worldwide LGBT rights advocates have said saved lives – nor his 2009 proposed amendment as a U.S. House member seeking LGBT protections from a U.S. foreign policy bill. Trump said in a tweet.
“It’s deplorable that Trump has built his campaign largely on prejudice and paranoia and given a national platform to hateful views and voices, including by retweeting fringe bigots with a few dozen followers and spreading their message to 11 million people”, she said. “You’ll have a whole different Supreme Court structure”, he said.

Trump spoke at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis Saturday, where he said that Schlafly is looking down on those gathered, telling them to “keep up the fight”. Amid pressure from the business community and LGBT advocates, Pence was forced to signed into law a fix limiting the potential discriminatory impact of the measure.
