With exactly nine weeks until election day, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were on the campaign trail Tuesday, with each questioning the other’s ability to serve as commander in chief.

According to the most recent poll by the New York Times, Clinton is leading at 44 percent in the national average verses Trump at 40 percent. The latest poll shows 42 percent of Wisconsin’s registered voters support Democratic candidate Clinton and 37 percent support Republican candidate Donald Trump.
Clinton was senator from NY at the time of the attacks and has frequently touted her efforts – including at her party’s convention this summer – to aid those impacted by the World Trade Center collapse.
Hillary Clinton attacked Donald Trump as inexperienced.
Clinton had sharp words for the Republican nominee, saying Trump was “dead wrong” in saying that his tax returns were not the concern of everyday Americans, despite every major presidential nominee since Richard Nixon releasing their taxes before the election.
Tampa resident Diane Briscoe says she doesn’t understand the relentless emphasis on the negative aspects of Clinton’s character in the media.
“I take classification seriously”, she said.
“I think we’re up to 89, but who’s counting?” she quipped, noting how several Republican national security figures have openly endorsed her or oppose Trump.
“We’re going to make this economy grow, but we’re also going to make it fair”, Clinton said.
A new Washington Post/Survey Monkey poll has Trump losing the Lone Star State to Hillary Clinton by a single percentage point, 46 percent to 45 percent.
“I will give our military everything they need when they’re serving overseas and support them with the care and benefits they deserve when they come back home, including job training and mental health care”, Clinton said.
Specifically, the ad shows military veterans watching some of the NY billionaire’s more provocative statements, including his claim to know more about the Islamic State group than military generals, his criticism of Arizona Sen. It also allows her to target Republican-leaning voters who have been turned off by Trump. Trump called Clinton a failed foreign policy leader. It’s a change in strategy when pollsters start trying to identify the folks who are actually going to show up at the polls, rather than the ones who have an opinion but still might stay home.
Vice presidential hopeful Tim Kaine warned that Donald Trump was too unpredictable and risky to entrust with the powers of commander in chief, accusing the Republican of misleading the public on his past foreign policy views and of expressing a fondness for dictators at the expense of traditional US allies.
And shouldn’t we have some more hearings about Benghazi?
Setting the stage on Labor Day for a critical month in their testy presidential campaign, Donald Trump softened his stance on immigration while Hillary Clinton blasted Russian Federation for its suspected tampering in the US electoral process.
Clinton’s campaign is spending big to undercut Trump’s message in a new TV ad also released Tuesday entitled, “Sacrifice”.
Hillary Clinton palled around with reporters aboard her campaign’s new “Stronger Together” plane this weekend, before eventually taking some questions from the traveling press corps. “People who have nothing to hide don’t bleach – nobody’s even ever heard of it – their emails, or destroy evidence to keep it from being publicly archived as required under federal law”, Trump said, pointing to Clinton aides’ use of a software named BleachBit to expunge traces of deleted emails.
National security will be a focus all week.
“I just don’t believe that many people are into Trump”, Hill said. “I guess we should be glad it was only a Twitter war, because In a few months, he could have control of the armed forces”. “That may just be part of a lingering bias in our country, I don’t know”.
But the polls show how close the race is looking ahead of the November 8 vote, making the battle for the so-called swing states all the more important.
