In a Florida poll, she’s leading by six per cent. Thursday, Obama wrapped himself in the symbolism of America’s military decision center.

Billionaire industrialists Charles and David Koch are major donors to Republicans. Twelve percent of Republicans back Clinton, while only five percent of Democrats support Trump.
Rep. Mike Coffman faces a tough challenge in Colorado’s most ethnically diverse congressional seat, in suburban Denver.
Obama compared Trump’s assertion to a sandbox or schoolyard squabble.
Coffman starts a new television ad talking about his party’s presidential nominee. “I can tell you Tim Kaine and I will get up every single day, we will fight for you”. What does that mean?’ Obama said with exasperation.
The president added Americans should not take Trump’s musings on this seriously. He says Hillary Clinton has pledged to make that investment.
Clinton has also been embroiled in another controversy in recent weeks. He says Clinton will focus on bringing jobs to urban areas and investing in infrastructure.
Obama, in fact, seemed nearly at a loss for words when a reporter asked him about Trump’s recent claims.
Khizr Khan denounced Trump at last week’s Democratic convention in Philadelphia, and Trump’s combative reaction to the Khans drew a negative response from key Republicans, including House Speaker Paul Ryan and Arizona Senator John McCain.
But many others looked past this, arguing that Trump was driven by strategy rather than any instinctive dislike for minority groups.
But he also says that Trump “has had a pretty odd run since the convention”. “Those families know that we have a policy that we don’t pay ransom. He’s running against a guy in the primary”, he said.
“I don’t like doing this”, Mr. Ryan told a Wisconsin radio station. Earlier this week he said he believes Trump is “unfit” for office and went so far as to call on GOP leaders to renounce his candidacy.
This week, a party congressman said he’d vote for Clinton. But her eye is on the spectacle surrounding Donald Trump and winning over skeptical Republican voters.
Ryan’s continuing endorsement of Trump has come under scrutiny in recent days after the candidate engaged in a series of offensive and weird interactions, including criticizing Muslim-American Gold Star parents, questioning America’s commitment to its North Atlantic Treaty Organisation allies and encouraging Russian intelligence officials to hack Hillary Clinton’s emails. Manafort spoke on ABC’s “Good Morning America”. Suddenly an election noteworthy for featuring the two least liked presidential candidates in modern history has become even more unusual.
But the speaker also reiterated his support for Trump: “None of these things are ever blank checks – that goes with any situation in any kind of race”.
Barely three months before the general election, Donald Trump finally has a campaign team in Ohio. Among them is Michael Hayden, a former director of the Central Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency, who is seen in a video clip describing Trump as “a clear and present danger”. One of the people associated with the campaign said Mr. Trump privately blames his own staff for failing to quiet the backlash from his own party after he criticised an American Muslim family whose son, a U.S. Army captain, was killed in Iraq. In 2008, Sen. John McCain pulled his campaign out of the state in September after it became apparent that MI wasn’t in play.

There’s no indication Trump is unsatisfied with Pence’s approach.
