With the first debate scheduled for later this month, Clinton’s campaign is trying to ensure that Trump is positioned for a tough evaluation, recognizing that expectations can matter even more than actual performance. I know there’s professional jealousy”, Conway said, “because he’s taking the case to Hillary Clinton in the way that you see the polls tightening, doing policy speeches.

The Trump campaign says that it was unaware that the show would also be shown on the Russian channel. It’s a message that is being sent by a candidate that assumed she’d have the media in her pocket, to future debate moderators.

She sought to move forward on Thursday as the popular website Humans of NY published interviews in which Clinton spoke candidly about perceptions that she can sometimes come off as “cold or unemotional”, describing her struggle to control her emotions without seeming “walled off” and speaking in personal terms about what it’s like to campaign as a woman. Asked about his statement that he knows more about the Islamic State than American generals, Trump said, “The generals have been reduced to rubble”, with no request from Lauer to explain what that means. So people have a problem with her. “Because if he wasn’t good with Hillary Clinton, he was bad when handling Trump – he just let Trump get away with blatant lies” about his positions on Iraq.

This morning, Hillary Clinton didn’t even wait for her first campaign stop of the day, attacking Donald Trump before boarding her plane.

In a Facebook post published on the page Humans of NY on Thursday, Clinton recounted taking a law school admissions test at Harvard University in 1969 and being harassed by male students.

Trump’s letter said the Republican is 6-foot-3 and 236 pounds – giving him a body mass index falling into the “overweight” range. “And if I create that perception, then I take responsibility”. Clinton insisted she would never put ground troops into Iraq again.

Mike Pence said Saturday at the Values Voters Summit in Washington that Clinton’s comments should be “denounced in the strongest possible terms”.

Trump also said he can save nearly $1 trillion over the next decade by saving one penny from every dollar of federal spending on programs, excluding defense and entitlement programs. One of the questions was about the RNC’s take on Clinton’s performance at a forum Wednesday night. “Mat Lauer fails the moderator test”, the Huffington Post whines.

Trump says he, too, plans to release details from a recent physical, though it’s unclear when that will happen and how much information he will provide.
