Hillary Clinton Bashes Donald Trump’s Outreach to Black Voters

According to Fortune Magazine– Democrat Hillary Clinton called on Friday for voters to reject the “bigotry” of Donald Trump’s White House campaign, releasing a television ad criticizing his efforts to appeal to black voters and saying she was reaching out to people from all parties who are troubled by his candidacy.

The ad shows video of Trump’s controversial pitch to black voters, in which the Republican candidate urges them to support him by asking, “What do you have to lose?” It also shows headlines about a racial discrimination lawsuit the New York real estate mogul faced in the 1970s.

Clinton’s presidential campaign said the ad, released a day after she gave a speech accusing Trump of fueling America’s “radical fringe,” would air in the hotly contested states of Florida, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Polls give Clinton a wide margin over Trump among Hispanic voters, but he is on a pitch to reduce her advantage by stressing he would create jobs for all.

Trump pressed on with trying to broaden his appeal to minority voters on Friday, as he met with Hispanic business leaders at his signature hotel in Las Vegas.

“We’ve been doing very, very well with the Latinos. We’ve been doing amazing, far, far greater … than anyone understands. They want to see jobs come in, we’re going to bring jobs. They want to see things happen,” Trump said.

He said the country’s GDP growth rate of 1.1% in the second quarter was not a good sign for the U.S. economy. “The country has some very, very serious problems,” he said.

Clinton, meanwhile, followed up on Thursday’s tough speech by saying that Trump’s temperament and divisiveness made him unfit for the White House.

Clinton told MSNBC:

“I am reaching out to everyone, Republicans, Democrats, independents, everyone who is as troubled as I am by the bigotry and divisiveness of Donald Trump’s campaign,” adding she was asking “fair-minded Americans to repudiate this kind of divisive demagoguery” at the Nov. 8 election.

Donald Trump Says He Believes The Election’s ‘Going To Be Rigged’


Welp! Looks like Donald Trump is already coming with a lame excuse as to why he probably won’t win the U.S. President bid this November.

Mr Trump just can’t accept the fact that the majority of Americans do not share his racist, misogynistic & hate filled sentiments and wouldn’t vote for him if his name was the only name on the ticket. His own political party is embarrassed by his brash, crass & downright arrogant behavior, so much so that former Republican President George W Bush even strongly denounces his disrespectful shenanigans  — that’s saying an awful lot.

According to Time Magazine, Trump was quoted saying he believes this year’s election between him & Hillary Clinton will be rigged, presumably not in his favor.

Donald Trump previewed a possible excuse for a general election loss Monday, saying he thinks it is going to be “rigged.”

“I’m afraid the election’s going to be rigged, I have to be honest,” Trump said at a rally in Columbus, Ohio Monday afternoon, after talking about Bernie Sanders and the Democratic primary.

The “rigged system” drumbeat is one Trump hit repeatedly during the primary season, first against the Republican establishment and, more recently, about the Democratic Party, to try to win over Sanders supporters who felt their candidate did not have a fair shake against Hillary Clinton. (Sanders backers grew even more concerned after leaked Democratic National Committee emails showed leadership favoring Clinton.) By turning now to say he believes the general election could also be unfairly favorable to Clinton, Trump is laying the groundwork to fuel his supporters’ fury if he loses on Nov. 8.

With less than 100 days until election day, Trump said, “Can you believe we’re almost there?”

I’m not much of a cheater, but let’s hope this is in fact true! America can’t handle (or afford) a Trump in the White House. I don’t think anybody wants to see that, not even the Republicans.

Check out this interesting blog post I found on Huffington Post written by one of Trump’s ex attorneys, Thomas Wells. Mr. Wells worked with Trump some 30 years ago on an exclusive real estate deal– a fancy shopping center to be named Trump Centre, in New Jersey. Wells goes into great detail with his personal reasoning as to why America doesn’t need a Trump presidency, now or never.

Here is an excerpt from his blog: 

I have thought about this a lot, and I want to share my humble insights of why we cannot elect Donald Trump as president of the United States. To me, it is more about character than politics. Because of lack of the former, the latter ― the actual politics of Donald Trump ― are not that easy to discern.

The very first point he gives regarding Trump’s character is that “the man lies all the time” and is in fact, “a skilled liar.”

He goes on to list 19 other reasons Trump is not right for the White House.

 

Bullies will always exist somewhere, but the White House should not be that somewhere.

Mexico’s President: ‘No Way’ Country Will Pay for Donald Trump’s Wall

 

Mexico’s president said that there is “no way” his country would ever pay for a wall between it and the United States. 

According to KTLA:

In a wide-ranging interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria, Enrique Peña Nieto shot down Donald Trump’s campaign promise that he’s going to build a wall and Mexico will foot the bill.

Peña Nieto stressed that economic and social prosperity on both sides of the border relies on a firm relationship between Mexico and the United States.

“We also have to bear in mind that the security of the United States is linked with the security of its neighboring countries,” he said. “And this is what we have built. And I’ll say it again, this is what we have been doing with the U.S. government. We have a relationship of coordination, of collaboration and of cooperation in the area of security, precisely in order to have security in Mexico, to have security in the U.S. and … we are journey companions. We are strategic partners working for security in North America.”

“There is no way that Mexico can pay [for] a wall like that.”
