President Trump asserted on Saturday there would be dire economic consequences should he lose the 2020 presidential race, leaning into his reelection slogan "Keep America Great." “The Trump Economy is setting records, and has a long way up to go....However, if anyone but me takes over in 2020 (I know the competition very well), there will be a Market Crash the likes of which has not been seen before! KEEP AMERICA GREAT,” he tweeted.

President Trump said Thursday that efforts by Susan Rice to unmask his associates’ identities in intelligence reports last year are “just the tip of the iceberg,” slamming the former Obama national security adviser days after she spoke to House investigators. “She’s not supposed to be [unmasking], and what she did was wrong … and that’s just the tip of the iceberg,” Trump told Fox News, speaking aboard Air Force One on his way back from surveying Hurricane Irma damage in Florida. He added, “I heard she admitted [to unmasking] yesterday.” A senior Capitol Hill source told Fox News that Rice...

President-elect Donald Trump is challenging the Obama White House over its public investigation into the hacks of Democrats during the election. “If Russia, or some other entity, was hacking, why did the White House wait so long to act?” he asked on Twitter on Thursday. “Why did they only complain after Hillary lost?” Trump’s comment challenges the president’s motivation for the investigation, after Obama repeatedly promised a smooth transition of power in the White House. Obama defended his decision during an interview with the Daily Show’s Trevor Noah: The reason that I called for a review is really to just...

FBI Director James Comey announced the development in a letter to Congress that was made public Sunday afternoon, just two days before Election DayFBI Director James Comey abruptly announced Sunday that Hillary Clinton should not face criminal charges related to newly discovered emails from her tenure at the State Department, lifting a cloud of uncertainty that has shadowed the final days of her presidential campaign. In a letter to congressional lawmakers two days before Election Day, Comey said the FBI has worked "around the clock to process and review a large number of emails" obtained from a device belonging to...

Donald Trump urged voters Sunday to "deliver justice at the ballot box" on Election Day, hours after the FBI announced that its review of newly discovered emails did not change its earlier conclusion to not recommend charges against Hillary Clinton. Trump, speaking at a rally here, did not directly refer to FBI Director James Comey's announcement. But his remarks amounted to his first public response to the decision, and the Republican nominee argued that Clinton is "guilty" of federal crimes and said a "rigged" system was protecting Clinton. "Hillary Clinton is guilty. She knows it, the FBI knows it, the...

By Ashley Killough CNN STERLING HEIGHTS, Michigan (CNN) -- Donald Trump called on voters Sunday to "deliver justice at the ballot box on November 8," hours after FBI Director James Comey again cleared Hillary Clinton over her use of a private email server. Trump, speaking at a rally in Sterling Heights, Michigan, did not directly mention Comey's announcement. But in calling Clinton "the most corrupt person ever to seek the office of the presidency of the United States," Trump said, "you can't review 650,000 new email in eight days. You can't do it, folks." excerpt

Donald Trump attacked the Clintons on Thursday over the latest blockbuster hacked email released by WikiLeaks, which details how a close Bill Clinton aide helped rake in tens of millions for the former president while his wife was serving as secretary of state. Doug Band sent the 12-page memo in 2011 to Bill Clinton, his daughter Chelsea, several Clinton Foundation board members and lawyers, and 'special adviser' John Podesta – whose email was hacked and who is now Hillary Clinton's campaign manager. 'Just today we read about Clinton confidant Doug Band bragging that he had funnelled tens of millions of...

Just in! Trump fires back at Paul Ryan: "Paul Ryan should spend more time on balancing the budget, jobs and illegal immigration and not waste his time on fighting Republican nominee" 1:22 PM - 10 Oct 2016

Just saw the entire Trump / Billy Bush tape on CNN and it was an eye opener versus reading the transcript. I admit I was worried about the impact of the transcript, and still am. But ... after watching and listening, it is 100% obvious Trump was goofing and giggling around, being silly, light-hearted and playful, and Billy Bush was giggling uncontrollably because Trump was being totally silly to entertain him. Even the story about pursuing some married woman was pretty lightly related, but that part did sound like it's based on a real life Donald attempted and failed flirtation....

Hillary Clinton has absolutely no leg to stand on when it comes to defending women. Her husband was accused of rape, sexual misconduct by many women, and of course we all know how he preyed on that one young White House intern. He’s a really bad guy. But Hillary thought it would be a good idea to go after Trump for misogyny. It didn’t work out so well. "This is horrific. We cannot allow this man to become president." - Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) October 7, 2016 Wow. Bold move. What did Twitter have to say?

Donald Trump said he's afraid the general election in November will be rigged, but didn't elaborate on the comment at a rally in Ohio Monday afternoon. "I'm afraid the election is going to be rigged, I have to be honest," the Republican nominee for president said, in remarks that did not mention the controversy generated by his comments about the parents of a slain U.S. soldier. Trump said he felt the Democrats had fixed their primary system so Hillary Clinton could defeat Bernie Sanders in the primaries and claimed that the Republican nomination would have also been stolen from him...

Sellout Warren As Clinton tries to salvage support among the Bernie Sanders wing of the Democrat Party, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has become a turncoat for the causes she supposedly supports. While Warren claims that Wall Street businesses have too much influence in D.C., by paying “barely disguised bribes,” through campaign contributions. The Clinton campaign has accepted over $41 million this cycle from Wall Street interests. Warren is also campaigning for the author of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a deal she has routinely slammed. This is a trade deal that Clinton has expressed support for in over 45 public speeches. Warren’s...

Donald Trump responded to sharp criticism from President Barack Obama on Tuesday, telling The Associated Press that while Obama says he "claims to know our enemy" he "continues to prioritize our enemy over our allies, and for that matter, the American people." Trump added to the AP that "when I am president, it will always be America first."

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump told California voters Friday that he can solve their water crisis, declaring, "There is no drought." Speaking at a rally in Fresno, Calif., Trump accused state officials of denying water to Central Valley farmers so they can send it out to sea "to protect a certain kind of three-inch fish

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Outside, protesters were overrunning barricades - and at least one entrance to the event space had its windows smashed. Inside, presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump was telling protesters to "go home to mommy." It was quite the return to the campaign trail for the businessman and if there was any lingering hope for Republicans that there is a Trump 2.0 coming, once again, Trump dashed that notion. Instead, it was a return to form for a man who has made significant strides in polls against Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton. Trump held court in Albuquerque, New Mexico for...

Under a President Donald Trump, the Republican Party would become a different one, a broad, populist coalition focused on workers who have gone too long without a raise and on social programs the party establishment has long seen as anathema to its long-term success. “Love the question,” Trump said in response to a question from Bloomberg Businessweek's Joshua Green in a profile of Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus published Thursday. The article bears the headline, "How to Get Trump Elected When He’s Wrecking Everything You Built." “Five, 10 years from now — different party. You’re going to have a...

Trump’s response references reports claiming that Warren potentially benefited from a housing crisis herself. Reports emerged during Warren’s Senate campaign in 2012 that she profited off her native Oklahoma City’s volatile market in the 1990s. Warren reportedly loaned money at high interest rates to relatives and purchased foreclosed properties at bargain prices. The Boston Herald reported that Warren took part in about 12 Oklahoma real estate deals.

Clinton White House advisor and longtime friend Vince Foster, Jr. reportedly committed suicide in 1993.
