Pres. Barack Obama has openly expressed his dissatisfaction with presidential nominee Donald Trump.
The celebrity businessman also claimed that the Republican nomination would have been stolen from him had he not won by significant margins.
Obama did not hold his tongue, however, in addressing Trump’s suggestion that the November election will be “rigged”. Obama called on Republicans to repudiate and condemn the party’s nominee.
Republicans generally claim that voter ID laws prevent fraud, but Democrats say these restrictions are meant to make it more hard for those who heavily vote Democratic to cast their ballot, such as Blacks and Latinos with no ID’s, registrations and perhaps no citizenship, meaning “stuffing the ballot box” and that is voter fraud.
The event in OH was Mr Trump’s first campaign appearance since the start of his row with the parents of a killed Army veteran, but he did not address the controversy.
Obama then pivoted to question why Republican leaders, who have denounced Trump’s response to a handful of issues, have still endorsed him. On Monday, Arizona Senator John McCain, who spent time as a prisoner of war in Vietnam, wrote, “I can not emphasize enough how deeply I disagree with Mr. Trump’s statement”. “. The alternative is that the entire party effectively endorses and validates the positions that are being articulated” by Trump.
Trump has also made demands to change the dates of the three general-election debates because two of them are scheduled at the same time as pro football games.
The event in OH was Trump’s first campaign appearance since the onset of his tussle with the parents of a slain Army veteran, but he did not address the flap.
Trump provoked bipartisan blame over the weekend after he derisively answered criticism from Khizr Khan, the father of a Muslim American solider killed by a suicide bomber in Iraq. “The last book my son read that I sent him was Senator McCain’s book about courage: “Why Courage Matters”. On Monday, Trump tweeted that he was being “viciously attacked” by Khizr Khan.
We need more candidates like Khizr Khan, not Donald Trump, to run for office in America.
Khan, who is Muslim, has sparred publicly with Trump in the days since he delivered his fiery speech at the Democratic National Convention, where he argued that Trump’s proposal to ban Muslim immigrants from entering the U.S.is unconstitutional and would prevent patriotic Muslim-Americans from serving the country.
But Buffett said there were no rules against showing tax returns and allowing people to ask questions about them. “That’s what freedom sounds like”. “And we have to do everything we can for those families, and honor them and be humbled by them”. He added that Trump had great respect for veterans.
