Mike Pence tries to win over conservatives despite Donald Trump’s gaffes

The college Republicans say they’re most concerned about Trump’s temperament, and that he’d make the United States less safe.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during a campaign rally at Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena, Wednesday, Aug. 3, 2016, in Jacksonville, Fla. In about the last week it seems like the Republicans have now begun this scorched earth policy against Trump.

Pollsters also found that 53 percent potential voters see Clinton as an acceptable president, versus 47 percent who do not. According to AP, Priebus has already spoken to Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and the Trump children, who are said to agree that the nominee needs to stop picking fights within his own party and take a step back from his criticism over the past few days of the Khan family.

Pence said he and Trump believe Khan is “an American hero” and said “his family, like all Gold Star families, should be cherished by every American”.

Trump openly taunted the leaders of his own party Tuesday by refusing to endorse Ryan and former Republican presidential nominee John McCain of Arizona in their primaries. “He can tweet all he wants, but I have to do this for my country and for my party”. Pence is on the ticket to show that a normal person, operating under the normal rules of human and political etiquette, is at least somewhere in the vicinity of Donald Trump.

Mike Pence tried Thursday to smooth over turmoil stirred by Donald Trump’s refusal to endorse some prominent Republicans, issuing a blanket endorsement of all GOP congressional incumbents seeking re-election.

A spokesman for Ryan said the Wisconsin Republican never sought Trump’s endorsement. Let me ask you: have you even read the United States Constitution?

RUSH: Do you think that Trump made a mistake in not endorsing Ryan?

In his speech, Khan argued that Trump was unfamiliar with the United States Constitution and that he can not be trusted with the future of the nation.

Klarman, who according to Forbes has a net worth of $1.35 billion, appears to have especially taken issue with Trump’s remarks in OH earlier this week that he thinks the election could be rigged.

US House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan, who has endorsed Trump but has not received a reciprocal endorsement from the NY businessman in his re-election bid, said Trump has ‘had a pretty odd run since the convention’. I really don’t want to do that.

“Of course the election will not be rigged!”.

Although Robertson and Trump’s advisers have told him to move away from attacking Khan, The New York Times notes that he has doubled down on his rhetoric.
