Obama speaks up for protester but is derided by Trump

Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta told NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the campaign believes if Clinton wins Nevada and MI, she “is going to be the next president of the United States”.

Clinton herself was to wrap her day in Cleveland at a get-out-the-vote rally with hip-hop artist Jay-Z. They also said it’s too early to dismiss chances in Nevada, despite a surge of Latino early voters there, because they believe they can get as much as 30% of Latino votes.

He then began a blistering attack on Trump, saying you can’t elect a man who won’t even make public his income tax returns.

Donald Trump warned Thursday that a cloud of investigation would follow Hillary Clinton into the White House, evoking the bitter impeachment battle of the 1990s in a closing campaign argument meant to bring wayward Republicans home.

Obama said they are first children of God, human beings first and not Democrats or Republicans first.

This was an anniversary for Obama. “I think it’s maybe time to have a female president”.

As for state-level results, we’re now being flooded with them, and many seem to show somewhat contradictory results – varying between reassuring for Clinton and worrying for her.

Not all Clinton supporters were anxious about her recent slip in the polls.

A place to watch closely is Macomb, the more blue-collar suburbs where Trump has polled well. While his polling numbers are still lower than Clinton’s, Trump is having a hard time connecting to non-male and non-white demographics. The poll showed Clinton’s lead down to 4 percentage points in MI.

Donald Trump is promising to take his campaign into traditional Democratic territory as a sign that he’s not giving up on appealing to people outside the Republican Party.

Both the candidates have launched aggressive campaigns in the final stretch and both are concentrating more on getting their supporters to vote rather than swaying those undecided.

From early in his candidacy, Trump has drawn super-fans, those who have attended several rallies and watched the internet live streams of many more. Campaigning in Florida, where he appears to be running neck-and-neck with Hillary Clinton, Trump plans to head to Minnesota in the final three days of the campaign.

The group focuses in part on states where the Latino population might not be huge, “but even if they’re a small part they can make the difference” in tight races, Ocampo said, adding the group also will kick off voter canvassing in Pennsylvania and Arizona.

“I will get up every day and I will work for you and your families”.

Clinton is still the favorite to win Tuesday’s election, but Trump now has a plausible route to victory, especially if there is a sharp fall in turnout among African-Americans from the levels of the 2012 election. President Barack Obama planned to rally in Ann Arbor, Michigan Monday, before joining Clinton for a rally in Philadelphia that evening.

The Republican candidate’s son and top campaign adviser later retweeted the false rumor that the incident was an “assassination attempt”, and a supporter at a subsequent rally in Denver repeated the suggestion. Unlike Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, New Hampshire and other battleground states, Arizonans aren’t bombarded with campaign stops.

Melania Trump, the Slovenian-born former model who could become America’s first foreign-born first lady in two centuries, also chose Pennsylvania Thursday for her first solo campaign appearance. We’re doing well everywhere, ‘ Trump said. I’m fearless in other ways.

At a nighttime rally in battleground North Carolina, Trump delivered a defense-related speech at which he said he can’t picture Clinton as commander in chief.

With the campaign in its final stages, Trump was sticking to the teleprompter and avoiding his most explosive rhetoric.
