Clinton campaigned in North Carolina last week, when she criticized the state’s controversial House Bill 2 during a rally in Greensboro.
Speaking of lowering expectations, Trump’s forces are trying to do the same. At the same time, she can’t be too detailed.
Charlotte Mayor Jennifer Roberts asked Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton to come visit the protest-ridden city later on down the road.
Monday at 9:00 pm (0100 GMT), at Hofstra University in the city of Hempstead on Long Island, an hour’s drive from NY. They will face off again on October 9 and 19.
When Trump uses the frequent phase, “Believe me…” it’s a clue that he just told a lie or is about to tell a lie.

“He’s got this line that’s working its way in about terrorism and lawlessness”, Prof Jackman said. Perhaps most crucially, 56 per cent of voters say they would be afraid.
Clinton sparred with Vermont Sen.

He also needs to reassure Republicans that although he is in many ways an outsider, he would serve as a Republican president. “You’re speaking directly to the audience”.
