Trump to lash out at Clinton in speech focusing on ‘failed’ policies
Republicans have also grumbled that Trump’s controversies have overshadowed real weaknesses for Clinton, including a scathing State Department report on her email practices and a grim jobs report that could undermine her case for sticking with President Barack Obama’s economic agenda.
Trump has sometimes struggled to discuss religious issues.
And they aren’t making jokes about his hands. A Reuters/Ipsos survey this week showed that 44.5 percent of likely voters backed Clinton, while 35.5 percent supported Trump. “What I am far and away greater than an entertainer is a businessman, and that’s the kind of mindset this country needs to bring it back, because we owe $19 trillion right now … and you need this kind of thinking to bring our country back”, he said at a Republican primary debate a year ago. “So let’s take a look at what he has done”.
That more-engaged approach can’t come too soon for Republican financiers.
The most laugh out loud moment of the speech was when Trump claimed that Clinton thinks the campaign is all about her when he knows that it is all about you.
“If Donald Trump doesn’t carry the day with this group of people, there’s no other path for him”, said Mr. Hart.
Donald Trump’s campaign is falling behind not just in the polls, but where some say it really counts in American politics - fundraising.
The presumptive Democratic nominee is “a world-class liar”, Trump said during a 40 minute speech in NY in which he slammed Clinton for everything from using a private email server to backing free trade.
And the chaos outside Trump’s campaign has mirrored the inner workings of his tightly knit inner circle. About three in four Democratic Sanders voters who will now vote for Clinton and the same percentage of those Republicans who did not favor Trump but who say they will vote for him in November claim they are mainly casting a ballot against the opponent. Obama grabbed at a chance to excoriate Trump over his response to the Orlando terror attack, portraying him as un-American and upbraiding him for “loose talk and sloppiness”.
“Why would donors give money when the first dollars go to help a billionaire buy products from his own company?”
Clinton’s address in OH, one of the most important battleground states, sought to define Trump as little more than a con man, whose ignorance and ego would tank the global economy, bankrupt Americans and risk the country’s future.
“We will lose jobs, we will lose employment, we will lose taxes”, Trump said.
Trump received $43,734 from New Jersey donors in May compared to Clinton’s $708,445, according to federal elections records.
“I think Hillary’s speech in San Diego set the tone for the general election”.
“We’re paying for the past, Democrats and Republicans”, said Brian Easter, a limousine driver who leans toward Ms. Clinton. The Clinton campaign will be looking for any sign of that.
Then there is the mood of the Democratic candidate herself. And her largest lead is in Trump’s coveted Keystone State.
Clinton said instead of causing large-scale misery and shrinking the economy, the country should pass sensible immigration reform with a path to citizenship. “Now, she’s been in the public eye for years and years, and yet there’s no - there’s nothing out there”. He is very risky.
“I haven’t donated yet but I definitely plan to”, said Terry Christopher, a vocal Trump supporter from Lancaster Township.
Poll: Should Christie have denounced Trump’s racial comments?
In one video, Trump, a Presbyterian, tells the crowd they don’t know “anything about Hillary in terms of religion”. Trump’s campaign will have to find something else to hold his morning beverage. Trump ties are made in China; Trump suits, in Mexico; Trump furniture, in Turkey; Trump picture frames in India; and Trump barware in Slovenia.
