Trump calls first U.S. debate moderator a Democrat; records show otherwise

“Hillary can win just one (Florida, Ohio, or North Carolina) and win the presidency … or she could get over 270 by winning Colorado and New Hampshire … or Iowa … or Nevada … you get the idea”, Mook wrote, adding that Trump would need to win six of those seven to win. “This election in particular can be downright depressing sometimes”.

Clinton didn’t name Republican opponent Donald Trump.

“Her attacks on me are all meant to deflect from her record of unleashing this monster of evil on us and on the world”, said Trump at a packed Florida rally, referring to Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state. Pressed by Sanders, she recently adopted a public option for ObamaCare, Medicare opt-in at 55, and debt-free college for people making less than $85,000 (gradually increasing to $125,000). But with the nomination firmly in grasp, the post-convention target of her persuasions became moderate, suburban Republican-leaners, and the platform seemed to slink back into the archives collecting dust. “So when you go out and talk to your friends and they say, “Oh God, I’m not going to vote, it’s a waste of time, every body is terrible”, ask them how much they’re going to leave school in debt with”.

But running through this targeted demographic’s laundry list isn’t enough. Despite leading in Wisconsin, the latest Marquette Law School poll indicates that voters find her less honest than Trump. She stressed that she crafted the plan with the help of Sen.

If Cuomo runs for a third term in 2018, 45 percent said they were prepared to re-elect him, compared to 49 percent who would prefer “someone else”, the poll said.

Voters also said they want to keep and improve, rather than repeal and replace, the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare. Just 39 percent think Trump will win.

The New York businessman accused Clinton of supporting policies in Iraq and Syria that he said allowed Islamic State to take root.

The race looks slightly narrower among likely voters than it does among all registered voters in a two-way match up. Even though I don’t support her, I wish her well. At Temple University, she acknowledged she needs to do more to get millennials on board.

Democrat Clinton’s strongest support came in the heavily Democratic areas of Minneapolis and St. Paul, where she held a 58 percent to 28 percent advantage. She’s a mainstream Democrat, a liberal with caveats, and she harbors no illusions about changing Washington.

And revelations Monday that at least 858 people that had been ordered deported or removed under another name were improperly granted USA citizenship due to a failure to maintain adequate fingerprint records, according to a new report, will be used by critics of the immigration system to bolster his claims of the need for reform.

This is any honest person’s acknowledgement of how American politics works, barring the drafting of a new constitution.

As Trump supporters at a packed rally in Florida shouted “Hang him!” the Republican presidential candidate mocked the fact that Ahmad Khan Rahami, a 28-year-old USA citizen originally from Afghanistan, would receive quality medical care and legal representation.

“I’m not okay with Anderson Cooper, because I think he treats me very unfairly at CNN”, Trump said of the second debate moderator.

“We can’t lose our cool and start ranting and waving our arms”, Clinton said on the call, according to her campaign in an apparent reference to Trump.
