Possibly the only pleasure this Democrat has had in the otherwise disgusting USA presidential-election campaign is witnessing the contortions of right-wingers over Donald Trump’s Republican candidacy.

Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence said Wednesday that Democratic and Republican administrations have been “eroding the foundation” of American manufacturing.

The rally came after Pence toured the Port of Wilmington and the Leland plant.

In Mississippi Wednesday, Donald Trump labeled Hillary Clinton a “Bigot who sees people of color only as votes, not as human beings worthy of a better future”.

– Donald Trump, the more temperate Republican candidate who had emerged in the past two weeks seeking to broaden his appeal to a more diverse electorate. “And that’s the kind of president that Donald Trump would be”.

Clinton, meantime, has done her utmost to remove any doubts about who she says the “real” Donald Trump is: a populist who has awakened America’s far right and aroused the worst nationalist elements of the conservative movement.

Pence focused several portions of his speech on criticizing what he said was Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s lack of trustworthiness.

A Trump presidency will protect the country, rid the world of ISIS, cut taxes, grow the economy, repeal Obamacare, cut regulations and bring trade reform and energy reform, he said. “We need to think about that very carefully”, Pence said.

“Build that wall” chants erupted when Pence said Trump will “build strong borders and build a wall and enforce the laws of this nation for the people of this nation”.

It was supposed to say to black voters, “Hey – we’re thinking about you”.

Winding down the programs and finding partners, she says, takes time.

He also asserted that Clinton’s statement at a congressional hearing, when she asked what difference did it make as to what inspired the terrorists, was “disqualifying”. But the Real Clear Politics average of all recent polls for the battleground state put Clinton ahead by only 2 points.
