Obama on Federal Bureau of Investigation procedures: ‘We don’t operate on innuendo’

A new Pew Research Center survey finds that supporters of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton have more difficulty respecting Republican Donald Trump supporters than the other way around.

Trump hit 64 percent in the unfavorable or extremely unfavorable categories, with Clinton at 46 percent and Obama at 36 percent.

“Every time people asked questions about investigations pertaining to Donald Trump, they are tight lipped and silent”, Mook added. “I saw her in the Situation Room making arguments to go after (Osama) bin Laden even though it was risky, tirelessly circling the globe as Secretary of State, respected around the world”, Obama said on Tuesday during a rally in Columbus, Ohio.

Pew said there’s an age divide among Trump backers.

Almost three-quarters of voters say Clinton is too willing to “bend the rules”, while 60 percent say Trump is biased against women and minorities.

Clinton will also make a stop in Sanford Tuesday afternoon, followed by an early-voting event in Fort Lauderdale around 7 p.m. The poll comes after the FBI reopened an investigation into Clinton’s private email server, having found more emails on the private computer of senior aide Huma Abedin.

He wrote an article entitled “I’m a Democrat, I worked for Bill Clinton, but I can’t vote for Hillary”, Trump said.

Of the 15 states that provide detailed information about those ballots, North Carolina, California and nine other states report more early voters than at the same point in the 2012 election.

According to a Real Clear Politics average of recent polls, Clinton’s lead had declined from 4.6 points on Friday to 2.5 points on Monday.

Then, the FBI’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email server.

The FBI’s renewed focus reportedly stems from a probe of Weiner, a disgraced former congressman who is under investigation over allegations he sent sexual overtures to a 15-year-old girl.
