Clinton blasts Trump's comments on military generals, Putin

According to notes released from Clinton's interview with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, she said she relied on others with knowledge about handling classified files. "Now, that is not just unpatriotic and insulting, to the people of our country as well as to our commander in chief, it is scary", Clinton said. The billionaire businessman appeared to pivot away from his hard-line position on immigration, saying, "I'm all about jobs now".

Clinton is again on the defensive over her use of a private email server and possible conflicts of interest with her family foundation while secretary of state, which have caused unease for some voters.

"He can try to fool voters into thinking somehow he's not as harsh and inhumane as he seems, but it's too late", Clinton said.

The poll's assistant director, Peter A. Brown, said: "The obvious takeaway from these numbers is that Donald Trump has staged a comeback from his post-Democratic convention lows".

By virtue of a coin flip, Clinton took the stage first and quickly found herself responding at length to questions about her years in government.

Meanwhile, Anne Holton, the wife of Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine, will campaign in Palm Beach County on Tuesday for the Clinton-Kaine ticket. The current average of polls by website RealClearPolitics puts her at 45.6 percent support, compared to Trump's 42.8 percent.

According to Quinnipiac, Trump also holds a four-point edge in OH, and he is tied with Clinton at 43% in Florida, according to the poll. No Republican has won the White House without carrying the state, and the airport offered vivid imagery of that crucial role. The daughter of former Republican Virginia Gov. Lynwood Holton, Holton was Virginia's secretary of education but stepped down in July when Clinton tapped Kaine as her running mate. It was a near-encounter that even forced the Trump press corps to the side of the road as Clinton's motorcade whizzed by.

Increasing the size without increase other support, he said, will decrease readiness and hollow out the force.

For perspective, Trump has opened the same number of fully operational campaign offices in the West Bank as he has in Florida and New Hampshire: One in each. Clinton did take some thinly veiled shots at Trump, but she also made an appeal to African-American voters and reflected on her Methodist faith. Last month, she delivered a major speech in which she accused Trump of aligning himself with far-right extremists and saying he "built his campaign on prejudice and paranoia".

Of the money, $70 million came through Trump's official campaign and his small-dollar joint fundraising group, Steven Mnuchin, Trump's finance chair, told CNN.

Trump also hit some of the K-12 themes he's sounded throughout the campaign, attacking the Common Core State Standards and arguing that the United States spends more on education than most other developed countries for iffy results. In an interview with Israeli TV this week, Clinton said that Trump supporters are, "what I call the deplorables; you know, the racists and the, you know, the haters, and the people who are drawn because they think somehow he's going to restore an America that no longer exists".

Donald Trump raised $90 million in August, the campaign said Thursday.

"Labor Day comes, and it's kind of like a recalibration", said Beth Myers, who managed Mitt Romney's 2008 presidential campaign and served as his senior adviser in 2012.
