Trump mocks Clinton over ‘short-circuit’ comment
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump slammed  Hillary Clinton... sometimes described as America's Blond Eminenceand at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Richelieu... as mentally unstable at a Saturday campaign rally, seizing on her admission that she "short-circuited" in comments about her private email use at the State Department. "The people of this country don’t want somebody who’s going to short circuit up here," Trump told supporters in New Hampshire. "She’s a dangerous liar," the real estate mogul said of the Democratic former secretary of state. "She is a totally unhinged person. She's unbalanced." Trump’s supporters chanted "Lock her up!" during the event in the town of Windham, which was broadcast online. On Friday, Clinton acknowledged she "may have short-circuited" when she tried to clarify statements about her use of a private email server.  The Democrat had told Fox News Sunday that FBI director James Comey said her "answers were truthful" about whether she sent or received classified material via private email.That comment was branded false by Washington-based fact-checkers. Trump, 70, has embraced her phrasing as a line of attack. On Saturday ahead of his rally in New Hampshire, he posted a campaign ad on his Facebook page that refers to Clinton as "Robot Hillary" -- and shows sparks flying out of her mouth. "Is Robot Hillary melting down?" the ad asks. Trump is trying to boost his campaign after a week of missteps that saw his poll numbers drop and the 68-year-old Clinton, a former senator and first lady, seize the momentum. He reversed course and endorsed House Speaker Paul Ryan ...U.S. Representative for Wisconsin's 1st congressional district, serving since 1999. He is a member of the Republican Party. He proposed an alternative to President Obama's 2011 budget and made himself the target of both Democrat and Republican verbal pies... for re-election on Friday, pledging to work with Republican Party leaders. Trump also said he would support veteran Republican Senator  John MaverickMcCain ... the Senator-for-Life from Arizona, former presidential candidate and even more former foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution... , with whom he has sparred in the past. "We need unity. We have to win this election," Trump told a rally in Ryan’s state of Wisconsin. Posted by: Fred 2016-08-08 |
