Critics slammed Trump this week for appearing to suggest that gun-rights supporters could shoot Clinton to prevent her from appointing federal judges as president, and he drew criticism for standing by a false claim that President Barack Obama founded the Islamic State.
Rep. Seth Moulton, a Clinton endorser and Democrat from MA as well as an Iraq War veteran, said the incident was evidence that Trump is “reckless and unfit to be our commander in chief”. “I would say the co-founder would be “Crooked” Hillary Clinton”. All major USA presidential candidates in modern history have released their returns.
Later, Trump’s spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany got schooled by CNN’s guest host John Berman – textbook style – on who exactly ISIS is and its founder.
The billionaire real estate mogul’s unusually candid reflections about the uncertainty of his electoral prospects come as he’s struggling to keep the focus on his opponent – Clinton – and avoid distractions. Just 6 percent of Americans said they have a great deal of confidence in the media in a Media Insight Project poll earlier this year.
Vladimir Putin and the Dalai Lama-once rudely shown out of the White House via the garbage exit-said it.
Clinton is trying to undercut the trustworthiness of rival Donald Trump.
Talk about it they have, and whatever you think about Trump’s chances in the general election, this was a major victory for the candidate on a number of levels. “I give her, too, by the way, Hillary Clinton”, replied Trump. Bernie Sanders said she suffers from bad judgement.
Clinton posted on Twitter that Trump’s comments are disqualifying. He said Thursday that her speeches are short and then she goes back home to sleep.
Bharara has taken down several corrupt politicians in New York State, and has also led several successful prosecutions against powerful Wall Street insiders.
Now, Trump is arguing that in trying to end the war and withdrawing USA troops in 2011, Clinton, who was secretary of state at the time, and Obama created Islamic State.
Following the Islamic State’s beheading of American journalist James Foley, President Obama created a coalition of nations to take on the dearly faction in September of 2014.
Trump was again criticized for those comments, but responded early Friday by claiming everything he initially said was a joke.
Trump went on to describe “a room that’s a quarter of the size of this. You meant that he (Obama) created the vacuum, he lost the peace”, Hewitt said.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks at a town hall at the Tampa Convention Center in Tampa, Florida, USA, 14 March 2016. While the state has not backed a Democrat for president since Lyndon Johnson in 1964, Trump himself acknowledged Thursday he is “having a tremendous problem in Utah”.

The comment has widely been interpreted as suggesting violence, though Trump says he meant that 2nd Amendment supporters could show the might of their political organization.
