Hillary Clinton has created history today by becoming the first woman to claim the Democratic nomination for the White House, but not to relax as her struggle now turns into war with Trump.
Clinton in crucial stage of her battle against Republican, Donald Trump, which is about to begin. Both the candidates have historically-high unfavorable ratings, which plays into Trump’s plan to make this a race to the bottom: 56% of voters Trump unfavorably and 49% to Clinton.
With few negatives of Clinton, Trump will target security issues raised by her use of a private email server during her work as secretary of state, and he will also question the finances of the charitable Clinton Foundation. He will mercilessly paint her as an ‘enabler’ in the sex scandal that engulfed her husband, Bill Clinton, when Bill was president in the 1990s.
But in interviews, Trump expressed sympathy for Bill Clinton and said he should just refuse to answer questions about his sex life. On October 9, both will have another chance to impress, in the second debate. The final debate will follow on October 19, when both candidates will be on their guard against any ‘October surprise’, which can influence the vote in the final weeks before election day, in November. But the most famous ‘October surprise’ might or might not have happened.
