“How it’s going to affect the race?”

It’s never too early to think about the next election.
Marcy Stech, a spokesperson for the pro-abortion rights Democratic group Emily’s List, asserted that voters wouldn’t buy the Republicans’ rhetorical “tap dancing”.
The GOP’s winding path to unification around Donald Trump has had the collateral damage of muddling Democrats’ message as they try to settle on a playbook to go after the GOP’s presumptive presidential nominee.
With the GOP both energized and torn over Trump’s rise, Trump and Ryan pledged to work together despite their differences, though the speaker stopped short of a full-throated endorsement.
Presidential politics has always been a long game – sometimes rewarding those like Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan, who rebounded from unsuccessful presidential campaigns to win the White House. Trump has criticized the military alliance, questioning a structure that sees the USA pay for most of its costs.
“I’m not softening my stance at all”, Trump said Friday on NBC when asked whether he was backtracking on a plan to ban Muslims from entering the U.S.
“I want to make sure that we really, truly understand each other and that we are committed to the conservative principles that make the Republican Party, that built this country”, he added.
Pirro believes Ryan is losing some of his power as Trump steps into the nominee position.
So as he forges ties with Trump, Ryan faces multiple political challenges.
During the primaries, Trump sought out to make his fellow Republican Ted Cruz look unsuited for presidency.
But on all these issues, Republican insiders think Trump will get a pass from voters. Voters 18 to 34 years old back Clinton 49% to 27%, while voters over 65 years old back Trump 50% to 37%. To the extent he has any coherent political philosophy, it is one of exclusion.
At the California convention, Trump spent much of his speech talking about his poll numbers, assuring the crowd that he’s a very popular person. Only one Democratic seat is now a toss-up, that of retiring Democratic leader Harry Reid of Nevada. In the United States, the Senate and the House are both elected bodies. “And that’s why he’s doing so well”, Priebus said.
“This is an issue the media is interested in”.
Conservative holdouts against Trump are also factoring in the 2020 election, preferring to concentrate on reasserting the conservative movement’s hold on the party for future presidential elections, rather than the current one.
Critics of the surveys asserted that the samples understated the likely size of the nonwhite vote and overstated the percentage of Republicans.
Should Trump win, his cabinet needs to make this the best government possible.
“The next president is going to inherit a recession that this president has largely been able to avoid due to the timings of things”.
“Whenever you have a heated primary, the party has to come and gel around the nominee, regardless”. Harry Reid, the Democratic leader in the Senate, is very close to Bernie Sanders.
Republican elites from across the ideological spectrum have pined for a Trump alternative to run an independent campaign, but Kasich isn’t having any of it. “He’s been running for president for over a year, and America has heard everything he’s had to say”. Vice President Joe Biden meanwhile, beset by personal tragedy after the death of his son Beau, also skipped the race. Republicans are developing some creative ways to distance themselves from the presumptive nominee without alienating his fervent supporters.

“On foreign policy, Hillary is trigger happy”, Trump said at a recent rally, He listed the countries where the US had intervened militarily during her tenure as secretary of state and pointed to her vote to authorize the Iraq war while she was in the Senate.
