Despite harsh reviews, Donald Trump resists new debate approach

in 2017/Top Headlines by

Unmoved by harsh debate reviews, a defiant Donald Trump renewed his attacks against a former Miss Universe winner on Wednesday, showing no sign of making big changes to his message or debate preparation before his second face-off with Hillary Clinton. The outspoken Republican nominee instead pressed ahead with an aggressive strategy focused on speaking directly to his white, working-class loyalists across the Midwest. Democrat Clinton, meanwhile, pushed to improve her standing among younger voters with the help of the president,…

Diane Roberts: Donald Trump feels presidency is ‘man’s job’

in 2017/Top Headlines by

Hillary Clinton is sick. Important white men-types, such as Rudy Giuliani, Sean Hannity, and Donald Trump, say so. She sits down at some of her campaign appearances — ON A STOOL! Or with a PILLOW BEHIND HER BACK! Clearly, her spine is disintegrating before our very eyes. She has Parkinson’s. A blood clot. A brain tumor. She has no stamina. She’s feeble. She has fits, seizures, rolling her eyes around and laughing. Or she’s possessed by demons. Giuliani: Now, there’s…

in 2017 by

Donald Trump returned to Tampa Wednesday afternoon, the fourth time he’s appeared in the Cigar City this year, and another visit inside Florida’s Interstate 4 corridor, still considered the most crucial area for a presidential candidate to win to take Florida’s 29 electoral votes in November.

in 2017/Top Headlines by

If Democrats could have scripted the first day of the Republican National Convention, it would have looked a lot like the show on display Monday in Cleveland.

Yeah, these are people I want to hang out with. Throw in the floor fight by the #NeverTrump…

If you’re a reporter, you didn’t have to be in Jacksonville yesterday to learn the details of Governor Rick Scott‘s $79 billion budget. That’s because the governor’s press office helpfully sent out email after email to highlight aspects of the vast budget throughout the day, where the highlights include $1 billion in tax cuts and cutting 863 state jobs.
