| White House goes nuclear on Donald Trump |
| 2016-04-03 |
| [CNN] Back in the early chapters of Donald Trump's headline-gobbling campaign, the White House looked upon the spectacle as little more than a diversionary amusement. Officials tried to stay above the fray, frequently declining to comment with a wry smile, insisting they weren't going to respond to every statement made on the campaign trail. But as Trump's rhetoric turned to banning Muslims and insulting women, things began to change, leading to a series of statements in which the President of the United States flatly said the Republican front-runner was unqualified to be commander in chief. By the end of last summer -- as Trump was saying that African-Americans were worse off under President Barack Obama That’s just how white folks will do you.... -- the President himself began dipping a toe in. "America is great right now," he said in September. "America is winning right now." |
