GOP pundits, meanwhile, say the story is yet another strike against Clinton, whose campaign has had to ward off a number of scandals through the election cycle.

Trump used Twitter as a focus group for his new brand: Trump, savior of white rights and white civilization.
A report revealed that more than half the people outside government who met Clinton while she was Secretary of State donated money to the Clinton Foundation.
The foundation has run many projects in India as well. Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At various points in their campaigns, those Republicans gave their winks and nods to the most toxic elements in their party. He first appeared to slightly open his stance, calling for a “humane and efficient” solution to undocumented immigrants living in the States, then dismissed a media report that stated he was doing the same, then reverted back to his original hard line stance of mass deportations, before finally publicly agreeing that he would be open to “softening” his position. After delays, the outlet sued the State Department for the records. The next day, according to Clinton emails, the State Department was working on a visa issue at Schwarzman’s request.
Clearly, none of these details were captured in the promotional tweet.
Though the meetings, or telephone conversations, did not violate any rules, laws or agreement, the AP said they fuel “perceptions that giving the foundation money was a price of admission for face time with Clinton”.
“It is outrageous to misrepresent Secretary Clinton’s basis for meeting with these individuals”, spokesman Brian Fallon said.
“Holy Moly!” Wemple stated in his blog.

On Thursday, Hillary Clinton tried her hand at throwing the national spotlight on the alt-right. There will clearly be some changes and what the Clinton Foundation does and how we do it.
The Democratic nominee, who has been working to paint her opponent as fearmongering and racist, also said that Trump’s “disregard for the values that make our country great is profoundly unsafe”.
Citing Trump’s leadership of the birther movement, which challenged the citizenship of the country’s first African-American president; Justice Department action against Trump for alleged discrimination in rental housing; and Trump’s questioning the impartiality of a judge of Mexican heritage, which senior Republican’s denounced as “textbook racism”, Clinton declared in her Nevada speech: “Trump is reinforcing harmful stereotypes and offering a dog whistle to his most hateful supporters – it’s a disturbing preview of what kind of president he’d be”. She replied, “I am sure”, and mentioned her strong understanding about the foundation’s work.
I reported last May that the only reason the rally was at UIC, according to Kenneth Gray, a Trump staffer who booked the venue, was because no suburban locations were available.
She said the private Clinton Foundation’s charitable programs would continue if she’s elected, even as Trump and other critics argue they would present a conflict of interest.
That’s not what the AP found, at all. The count doesn’t include anyone in the US federal government or representatives of foreign governments. He was a presidential candidate who showed no consideration for anyone other than himself.
Little known as a movement, the alt-right is credited with driving a wave of support for Trump early in the campaign, as he carved the profile of a strongman who would throw out all undocumented migrants and build a massive wall the length of the border with Mexico, block all Muslims entering the United States and insist on an ideological test that would apply to visa applicants and to Muslims already in the country.
