That makes it disappointing that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Friday told an audience at a fundraising event in NY that “you can put half of Trump supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables”. His remarks prompted a reaction on Twitter, with users wondering whether he was campaigning for a third term or rather thinking about golf.

Hillary Clinton is facing a fresh crisis over her perceived trustworthiness following her collapse at a 9/11 memorial, as a poll showed that fewer than half of American voters believe that she is suffering from pneumonia.
According to The Hill, the president defended Clinton’s stamina in light of questions regarding her health. “And yet because he says it over and over and over again, the press just gives up”, Obama said.
Clinton will be 69 and Trump will be 70 on Inauguration Day – she’d be the second-oldest first-term president and he’d be the oldest.
“One candidate’s family foundation has saved countless lives around the world”, Obama said his former secretary of state and 2008 rival for the Democratic presidential nomination.
“In election season you will often hear insane stuff”.
“I think millions of Americans were shocked and saddened to see Hillary Clinton refer to people across this country as a basket of deplorables in a prepared speech before wealthy donors in New York City on Friday night”, Mr Pence said. “But they just accept it”.
Unfortunately for Trump, the Clinton team has just raised the level of disclosure even higher; we now know the candidate has a troubled relationship with water.
“The President, as you have heard him say on many occasions, is confident that she will bring those same skills and that same endurance to the job as President”. And he is betting that if he scares enough people he might just scare up enough votes to win this election. Obama will speak at a plaza in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
“And now this guy is going to be the champion of working people?” Then, after the video went viral, we were told it was because of the heat.
“My most important message is we can not take this election for granted”, Obama told the crowd. “They used to be opposed to Russian and authoritarianism…”
In in the interview, King asked Trump about Putin’s assertion that the hack of the DNC committee was a “public service”, and claimed the Russian government was not involved. We, you know, take responsibility for that’. “Who hacked? Who did the hacking?”
The president blasted Trump and his party’s “dark, pessimistic vision” of the country on the campaign trail and accused the GOP of not “offering serious solutions”.
