“She has bad judgment, her temperament is awful, it’s a loser’s temperament, I have the temperament of a victor”, Trump said.

Nationally, Trump trailed Clinton by 7.5 points entering Tuesday, according to a RealClearPolitics average of major national polls.
It can’t always be, “Oh, crap, Donald Trump said” and then fill in the blank.
Pat McCrory introduced a surprise speaker, New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, at a campaign rally for Donald Trump in Wilmington on the N.C. coast Tuesday.
“Trump said that he had been around the area prior to the rally and was told how NAFTA, the free trade agreement, had destroyed the region”, said Stephens. Progress NC Action, for example, pushed North Carolina Gov.
“No public official should support a candidate who jokes about assassination of his political rivals, and if the governor has any respect for his office or his state he should immediately rescind his support for Donald Trump”, Gerrick Brenner, Progress NC Action’s executive director said in a statement.
Norman Ornstein, a resident scholar at the center-right American Enterprise Institute, called Trump’s comments “a reckless statement from a reckless maniac”.
“I think that he did mean that if the election didn’t go his way that people should take up arms against the president, which is a threat”, said Uriah Ward.
Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook didn’t take Trump’s comments as a get-out-the-vote message. As Trump’s free-fall in state and national polling continues, he may revert back Tuesday to the fiery style that defined his primary campaign.
“He’s a good friend, a good governor and you are lucky to have him”, Guiliani said of McCrory in Trask Auditorium at the University of North Carolina Wilmington.

Hillary Clinton is now ahead of Trump in most North Carolina polls, although not with almost as sizable a lead as she maintains in some other states. “The establishment on both sides of the aisle are shaking, and they should be because when he is the president of the United States, he is going to run it for you, not them”.
