Caitlyn Jenner posted a photo of herself and Hillary Clinton the day after she attacked the presidential hopeful during an episode of her reality show, I Am Cait. Jenner said of Clinton on Sunday's episode of her show; 'What has she done in her life? What has she done? What has she done? She was horrible. Look at all of the things that are going on in the Middle East because of what she did. Look at Benghazi. She lied to us, she is a f***ing liar.'
She then added; 'She is a political hack, that's all she is, she has done nothing.' It was a surprise therefore to see Jenner with her arm around Clinton in the photo she posted Monday. Also in Jenner's photo with Clinton were her friends Zackary Drucker and Candis Cayne. Jenner included the hashtags '#learningfrommygirls' and '#willingtolisten.'
On Sunday's episode of I Am Cait Jenner's friends took issue with her inability to have a conversation about politics and listen to others, including Cayne who is a vocal supporter of Clinton. The conservative Jenner meanwhile spoke about how much she liked Trump, and has previously said she supported Ted Cruz.
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have released new online ads this week. The ads directly target the other candidate at a time when both are gaining momentum with primary wins.
Clinton's new ad on Facebook features clips from a speech she gave, combined with clips of Trump giving speeches and TV interviews. It also includes clips of violence at Trump's rallies.
Trump's video on Instagram features Vladimir Putin and what appears to be a fighter for the Islamic State group. It says that "when it comes to facing our toughest opponents, the Democrats have the perfect answer," then cuts to footage of Clinton barking like a dog — a clip from earlier this year.
Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign hit Republican front-runner Donald Trump in its first New York ad released Wednesday. The 30-second spot, set to air ahead of New York's April 19 primaries, marks the Clinton campaign's first pivot to a potential general election opponent, even as she continues to compete in the Democratic race against Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
"New York. Twenty million people strong. No, we don't all look the same. We don't all sound the same, either," Clinton's voice says in the ad. "But when we pull together, we do the biggest things in the world." The spot features footage of a diverse New York, contrasted sharply against imagery from Trump's presidential campaign.
Hillary Clinton leads Bernie Sanders by 13 percentage points in New York, just a week before the state holds its primary, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday.
The survey found 53 percent of likely Democratic voters back Clinton while 40 percent said they support Sanders. Clinton leads Sanders among black Democrats 65 to 28 percent.
Clinton leads among Democratic women 55 to 38 percent and leads among Democratic men 48 to 43 percent. Half of white Democratic voters said they support Clinton and 45 percent are for Sanders. Clinton also leads among New York City's Democratic voters 53 to 37 percent and among Democratic voters in the suburbs 55 to 40 percent. She and President Clinton have lived in Chappaqua, New York for nearly two decades.
Clinton is unsparingly clear-eyed about what’s wrong with America while holding firm to what’s right with America. She fully understands the toll that adverse economic forces have taken on the country. She is supremely knowledgeable about the powers a President can wield to lift fortunes in need of lifting.
She possesses the strength and the shrewdness to confront the tough politics of advancing an ambitious Democratic agenda in the White House. Still more, she is a cauldron-tested globalist who had the spine to give Obama a thumbs-up for taking out Osama Bin Laden and who is far the wiser about the use of American power, having served as secretary of state and seen the consequences of the war in Iraq.
These truths about America’s most well-known public figure are long past debating among Democrats, above all in New York, the state Clinton represented in the U.S. Senate. In endorsing Clinton in the coming primary, the Daily News looked to lessons learned from its “Fight for Fair Pay” campaign, including the successful push in 2014 to secure raises for 12,000 minimum-wage workers at New York-area airports.
Because the need was indisputable and because union leadership had set a goal that was both ambitious and politically achievable, The News’ focus helped salaries rise from $8 an hour to $10.10 and, unknown at the time, the movement for Gov. Cuomo’s eventual $15-an-hour target had begun. The necessary elements were justice, political smarts and pragmatism — the qualities that shine the brighter in Clinton’s economic agenda.
