Clinton Chooses Black Lives Matter Over Law Enforcement Support
[DAILYCALLER] Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as For a good time at 3 a.m. call Hillary and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Edward Everett ...
pursued the endorsement of Black Lives Matter activists but blew off the largest police union in the United States.

After almost a year of meeting with Black Lives Matter representatives, Clinton failed to garner the support of the movement’s co-founder Alicia Garza, but she managed to receive the endorsement of mothers championed by the Black Lives Matter movement.

Garza recently slammed Clinton, saying the former secretary of state only "uses black people for votes" and "photo ops," but doesn’t "do anything for black communities" after getting elected.

Nevertheless the Clinton-Kaine campaign touts the support she received during the Democratic National Convention from mothers of the Black Lives Matter movement.

#1  Garza recently slammed Clinton, saying the former secretary of state only "uses black people for votes" and "photo ops,"

Garza has pegged Hillary accurately.

#2  Being the calculating and cunning person that she is, she is going with the numbers; the black voting bloc is larger than the police voting bloc.
Posted by: JohnQC || 08/08/2016 5:56 Comments || Top||

#3  She will get neither.
Posted by: Bright Pebbles || 08/08/2016 6:19 Comments || Top||

#4  She will get 90% of those that turnout. But what the turnout will be is the question. If the black inner city population isn't angry or bribed, their numbers flag. So look for lots of walking around money and incidents if her polling looks doubtful. What's a little rioting if the right people retain power to lead us to the workers paradise and aristocratic corruption on a par with Argentina?
After all, Bill needs more speeches and interns, the Foundation needs more donors and Huma needs to help Hilda on so many levels.

#5  "Garza has pegged Hillary accurately."

Garza has the Dems pegged accurately, #1 John.

#6  Of course she chose BLM. THey lying sack of shit Michael Browns' mom spoke at the DNC, root of the whole lie Hands Up Dont Shoot.

Trump mocks Clinton over ‘short-circuit’ comment
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump slammed Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as America's Blond Eminence and 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 Maverick McCain
... 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.

#1  The GOP establishment put a leash on Trump. About time someone brought him to reality that he is blowing this election with his lashing out at his own party, and that loser of a fight with the Khans.

#2  1. Since the convention, Trump ***is*** the establishment. Whatever happens now, he owns.

2. In other news, he just came out in favor of an anti-fracking measure in Colorado.

#4  Trump is a Populist. Thats why #3. Thats why he is not a conservative.

#5  "The people of this country don’t want somebody who’s going to fuc& short circuit up here," Trump told supporters in New Hampshire.

Restored to the original intent.

#8  God forbid people should have a say in their state.

If they want to go the way of Venezuela California, that's their choice.

#9  God Forbid that this would actually become a republic with individual rights being most important, instead of a "democracy" where the rights are subject to the whims of government and whoever can scrape up the biggest mob to control it.

At least now Trump is back on the right message, going after the proper target, Hillary. Too little too late? I do not know. The past week he has been pretty self destructive.
