Poll: Clinton Owns Two-Point Lead Over Trump in North Carolina

Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by two points in all-important North Carolina, according to the latest Suffolk University poll released Thursday. "The five-point swing is due to an improvement among women supporting Hillary Clinton and a Trump decline among independents," said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center.

Qatar Gave Clinton Foundation A Million Dollar Check For Bill’s Birthday

The small Persian Gulf nation of Qatar found an unusual way to say 'happy birthday' to former President Bill Clinton: a $1 million check to the Clinton Foundation. The existence of the 'birthday' check was revealed in newly dumped documents on Wikileaks hacked from Hillary Clinton campaign chair John Podesta.

.com | Washington Post backs Clinton for president

The Washington Post on Thursday became the latest US newspaper to emphatically endorse Hillary Clinton for the White House, saying it was swayed as much by her competence as by the alarming spectre of a Donald Trump presidency. "Hillary Clinton has the potential to be an excellent president of the United States, and we endorse her without hesitation," the influential US daily wrote, adding, "no, we are not making this endorsement simply because Ms Clinton's chief opponent is dreadful".

Rasmussen: Voters Rate Bill Clinton Behavior Worse Than Trump

After Hillary Clinton condemned an 11-year-old video in which Donald Trump said lewd and sexual comments about women, Trump countered back by calling her an "enabler" who allowed her husband, former President Bill Clinton, to sexually assault women for years. According to a Rasmussen Report poll released Thursday, likely U.S. voters agree that Bill Clinton's behavior towards women is worse than Trump's.

The amazing timing of the sexual misconduct accusations against Trump

John already broke down the claims being made by several women regarding unwanted sexual advances by Donald Trump anywhere from ten to thirty years ago, and the hounds have been loosed in the usual media sources. But now that the headlines have had twelve hours or so to percolate, can we talk about the real elephant in the room here? Are we simply going to ignore the awfully convenient timing of this batch of accusations in defiance of reason and the normal rules of engagement in political warfare? This comes down to a fairly basic case of Occam's Razor.

Trump-Clinton race devolves into ugly fight over treatment of women

Already deeply divisive, America's campaign for president is quickly devolving into an ugly fight over who has treated women worse: Donald Trump, whose White House bid is floundering, or former President Bill Clinton, who isn't on the ballot. Trump's campaign is now openly signaling it will spend the election's final month relitigating Bill Clinton's marital affairs and unproven charges of sexual assault, as well as his wife and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton's unverified role in intimidating the women who were involved.

Reports Raise Accusations By Women Against Trump

Donald Trump faced fresh controversy Wednesday over his treatment of women when several news organizations reported incidents in which women said he groped, touched or acted inappropriately toward them. If true, the reports appeared to undermine his assertions in Sunday's town hall meeting with Democratic rival Hillary Clinton that his self-described "locker-room talk" captured on a 2005 videotape in which he bragged about being able to exploit women sexually because he was "a star" didn't represent actual behavior.

We Knew Gender Would Be An Issue In This Election. But Did It Have To Play Out Like This?

Ever since it became clear that Hillary Clinton would be the Democratic nominee for president, it was inevitable that gender would be the backdrop to this election campaign, the thrumming undercurrent, shaped by the thrill many felt in seeing a woman finally break through - and the unease with which others greeted the possibility of a woman in the Oval Office. There was Clinton on October 9, sharing the stage in the second presidential debate with a man who just days before was heard joking on tape that he forced himself on women, kissed them without permission and described their bodies in vulgar terms, and who was allowed to justify all this as mere "locker room talk."

Michelle Obama Hits the Campaign Trail for Clinton

First lady Michelle Obama speaks during a campaign rally for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, Oct. 4, 2016, in Charlotte, N.C.

Reality Check: New Trump ad on ‘corruption’

The only problem is that compiling unsubstantiated claims, misleading statements and one outright falsehood, the Trump campaign has produced an ad that is breathtaking in its dishonesty. It is certainly true that the Clintons went from what Hillary Clinton termed "dead broke" when they left the White House in 2001 to earning more than $10 million in 2015 and $28 million the year before, as well as owning at least three homes -- two in New York, one in Washington -- valued in the millions.

Reality Check: Trump on Clinton, Social Security

At a rally this week in Pennsylvania, Donald Trump pulled what he said was this nugget from hacked excerpts of a speech that Hillary Clinton had given to Wall Street bankers. "The speeches also show that Crooked Hillary supports cutting Medicare and Social Security benefits, one more example of how Hillary Clinton's public position is a lie," Trump said of the remarks that were revealed in hacked emails of Clinton campaign officials that were published by WikiLeaks.
