Trump imitates Clinton’s health scare

And just as he is once again drawing attention to former President Bill Clinton’s sex scandals, Trump took his political attacks a step further, questioning whether the Democratic nominee is “loyal” to her husband.

She responded by listing his comments denigrating women, prompting a weak Trump response about how one of his targets, Rosie O’Donnell, has “been very vicious to me”. But his campaign said that following the September 26 debate, they raised approximately $18 million in 24 hours, saying that they plan to be competitive with Hillary Clinton and the Democrats leading up to election day when it comes to funding. Along the partisan line, 92 per cent of Democrats think Clinton won the debate, while 53 per cent Republicans believe Trump was the victor.

He went on: “Did Crooked Hillary help disgusting (check out sex tape and past) Alicia M become a U.S. citizen so she could use her in the debate?”

Removing the toss-ups, Real Clear has padded Clinton’s lead by moving Florida into her column. Hillary has previously defended Bill by stating that her husband’s extramarital affairs happened decades ago and they have moved on and are “in a good place”.

The New York Times obtained tax documents from 1995 that showed a $916 million loss in federal taxable income, a loss large enough to allow him to avoid paying federal income taxes for as many as 18 years.

Donald Trump has warned darkly of voter fraud in “certain areas” and mocked Hillary Clinton’s health and marriage while suggesting she should be imprisoned.

The Republican nominee says Clinton’s only loyalty was to her donors and herself.

“The first time I saw her, she walked into a room and I said, ‘Who the hell is that?'” he said.

“She’s home resting right now”, Trump said. “Why should she be?”

Trump escalated his attack on Clinton ahead of second presidential debate.

The Clinton camp’s message here is that while Trump’s personal vendettas are what keep him up late at night, Clinton stays awake to deal with loftier matters, like national service. He was impeached by Congress for perjury and obstruction of justice – specifically for lying to the grand jury in his sworn deposition in the Paula Jones case. You remember what he lied about.

Trump supporters often chant, “Lock her up!” during his events. Then, like the clang of a hammer on an anvil, came Donald Trump. “She’s getting ready for her next speech which is gonna be about 15 minutes and it’s gonna be in two or three days”.

He also slammed Hillary Clinton for having taken money from governments that treat women poorly.

“Hillary was an enabler”, Trump told The New York Times on Friday. He alleged that she made a sex tape (which doesn’t exist) and criticized her for gaining weight.

It began with Trump shaming Machado for what he termed a “disgusting” sexual past in a series of tweets posted at 3.20am in the US. “Never. Her only legacy is death, tremendous financial loss and failure”, he added later.

The attack worked. On “Fox and Friends” the next morning, Trump tried to save his pride by calling the former Miss Universe victor the “worst we ever had”, and noting that she had “gained a massive amount of weight” after winning the pageant in 1996.

Clinton said, “He called this woman Miss Piggy, then he called her Miss Housekeeping” because she is Latina.

But that doesn’t mean that voters should forget about Machado and the vile things Trump has said about her and countless other women. “Give me a break!” In terms of having lied, almost one-third believe Trump did, while 21 percent believed the same for Clinton. He’s spent most of his campaign discrediting Hillary by attacking her mental clarity and physical appearance.
