While Clinton and her running mate, Tim Kaine, attempted to sell their positive economic message, much of their strategy centers on undermining Trump, particularly the business record that makes up the core of his argument to voters. Donald Trump gets to take bankruptcy. She invoked him sometimes with red-meat outrage, sometimes with a tone of disbelief and sometimes for laughs. “But contrary to Donald Trump, I believe every time we knock down a barrier in America, it liberates everyone in America”, she said to resounding applause.

Trump during a press conference Wednesday in Miami said Kaine still isn’t popular in New Jersey. “We’re going to build roads and bridges and tunnels and forts and airports and water systems and a new electric…” And I watched her last night giving a speech that was so average. NARAL Pro-Choice America President Ilyse Hogue called Kaine’s continued opposition to repealing the Hyde Amendment “deeply disappointing” in a tweet that has since been deleted. And that is mostly fine by her.
In particular, Clinton has seized on Trump saying in his Republican National Convention speech that he “alone can fix” the country.
On Friday night in Harrisburg, Clinton’s bus drove through a blighted neighborhood with boarded-up homes before ending at a downtown market where she cited an analysis estimating her economic proposals could create more than 10 million jobs in her first term.
Trump himself denies involvement.
That did not stop one man at the back of the crowd from shouting “liar!” when Clinton spoke.
The Clinton-Kaine tour began a day after the former first lady, NY senator and secretary of state became the first woman to accept a major party’s nomination for president.
Mrs Khan has said she did not speak because she is still overwhelmed by her grief and can not even look at photos of her son without crying.
Tom Kean laughed off GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s comments that Democratic U.S. Sen. She cast herself as a steady leader at a “moment of reckoning” for the country, and contrasted her character with what she described as Trump’s risky and volatile temperament.
She later met in private with the state’s AFL-CIO president. “It truly is up to us”.
“I’d rather just go out and pound the pavement”, the Virginia Senator added.
“I don’t know anything about his sanity”.
The Democratic convention quickly erased, almost, the mean, dark shadow of Cleveland and replaced it with inspiration and optimism, exactly what a convention is supposed to do – for a party, and for the people.
The founders, she said, “knew they didn’t want one person, one man, to have all the power like a king”.
“The Republican convention was like a twisted and negative tour”, he said.
The event kicked-off a bus tour of Pennsylvania and neighboring OH, also a key electoral state. After both conventions, she regained a slight lead, 43 percent to 41 percent, in the 11 states where the election is expected to be decided.
Plus the young Kaine could double as Superman, which could come in handy.
Another hack came to light on Thursday, when four people familiar with the matter told Reuters the FBI is investigating a cyber attack against the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which raises money for Democrats running for the U.S. House of Representatives. They held official campaign signs and handmade varieties, and booed her from the roadside. I watched Hillary Clinton. “Because yes, we do have work to do, we can’t be satisfied with the status quo”, Clinton said. “It really is about the difference between pulling together, working together, making the future better together and not living in fear and anxiety”, she said. Like Trump, he is a businessman turned reality television star.
“Leadership is not yelling and screaming and intimidating”, said Cuban. “Or to make Trump furniture in Turkey, not Freeburg Pennsylvania”. “I wouldn’t say he’s exciting and I don’t think too many people have heard of him, so we have to learn who he is”. “We will rise to the challenge, just as we always have”.

The rally started about three hours late. Julie Green, born in the hard-luck city and now living a few miles away in Girard, was waiting and apparently receptive to the argument that Trump represents an ominous turn for American politics.
