Bingo.
And, someone asked why he has press conferences if he hates the press.
This is not rocket science, people.

It won't look so brilliant after what Biden and Obama do to Trump and his idiocy at tonight's DNC. Can't wait.

What you guys don't understand is that you cannot redeem a candidate - Clinton - who is widely distrusted by the American people. You can put all the lipstick on her you want and it will not hide her warts. She has lost the trust of many Americans.

The only issue is whether the electorate views Trump to be a greater risk than her. If they don't he will win the election. Biden and Obama and Bill Clinton yesterday cannot make her more trustworthy to the American people. They are biased ....... and have an agenda which is get a Democrat elected.

If Obama and Biden really were concerned with getting an honorable person into the presidency they would not have advocated for her. We really need to stop with the sanctimonious b-s. We have two horrible candidates and we are left to choose between them. I have Republican friends who are totally turned off Trump but will vote for him because they think Hillary is even worse.

Obama and Biden believe she is trustworthy, therefore they backed her. If the public does not agree, that does not make Obama and Biden dishonorable.

This is not the first election where we had two bad choices. I remember a lot of people being unhappy with the choices in 1988 and 1992. That unhappiness drove Perot's candidacy.

Tough choice!

how bout framing it as a choice between a totally dishonest buffoon and a totally dishonest woman? then it's not so tough

Don't underestimate the extreme amount of latent, unconcious bias against women that still exists out there.

Back to misogyny! Why don't you just face up to the reality that Clinton is just a seriously flawed candidate.

So we shouldn't care about what a presidential candidate says or does? WTF is wrong with you?

At least he is having press conferences.

Hillary hasn’t had one in 235 days, and counting.

Not since the 1st Democratic debate, if memory serves.

Pretty pathetic.

It's irrelevant. She isn't good at press conferences, so why should she hurt her campaign by doing them? It's a political calculation. Thomas Jefferson was so bad at public speaking he gave the State of the Union in writing. Maybe she should promise to do a press conference when Trump releases his tax returns.

I guess that would be rationale for not having any press conferences if she is president ...... because he is not good at them. If you run for public office you need to be willing to go through the process of being vetted and questioned. Press conferences are part of that process whether one is good at them or not.

So I take it you are adamant that Trump release his tax returns? That's part of the vetting process too.

I believe Trump should release his returns. But ultimately - say he refuses to do so using whatever excuse whether legitimate or not - on election day we can decide if his failure to do so is of sufficient importance that we deny him our vote.

To be honest, I think he is pulling an “Obama” on this one.
Remember how Obama would not release his birth certificate? The press and the right made a huge deal about it. Trump even got in on the action.
I believe Obama withheld it to make the right seem petty because after it was released, there was nothing to be seen.

I think Trump is doing the same thing. Making a huge deal over something that will turn out to be a nothing burger.

I agree. Same with the press conferences. Personally I believe Trump is better off not doing press conferences, unscripted, he is terrible.

So she won't do press conferences? Doesn't sound like a strong confident leader. The debates are definitely going to be interesting.

LOL. Have you seen her debate? I will bet money Trump will refuse to debate her

She will dazzle with her knowledge of policy ....... and all Trump needs to say is that judgement is just as important if not more so. Hillary has all the knowledge in the world - like Cheney - but both have terrible judgement.

Trump's judgment is also questionable -- his four bankruptcies have benefited him personally and harmed lots and lots of other people. Does that make his judgment smart, looking out for himself, or bad, by hurting others?

He said if Russia, China or anyone else has the deleted emails he would like to have them released so that he can see what they contain. I agree with him. Why hide these deleted emails? He did not invite anyone to hack any servers. If the emails have been deleted they cannot be hacked.

Because they were hacked.

So, you are ok with Assange releasing all of our Top secret files?

I am certainly glad that he released the DNC emails that showed how they screwed with Bernie.

I would like for those "personal" emails that Clinton deleted from her private server to be released. Let us see how personal they really are or whether they relate to the Clinton foundation.

I see.. so you are ok with people hacking into American servers and releasing the data. Perhaps you will feel differently if one day someone hacks into your computer/phone/tablet and releases your personal emails.

Such a ludicrous analogy. She deleted emails on a private server claiming they were private. How do we know these were personal? Given how dishonest she is, does anyone really believe her version of the emails being private?

I'm not an HRC supporter. She would be more stupid to NOT have removed damaging emails. I bet Trump and his companies have removed damaging emails themselves regarding all the lawsuits against him.

My point is that a potential POTUS should NOT be encouraging foreign powers to release emails of a potentially sensitive nature. Once again, by stating this, he has shown the world what a moron he is and his ineptness in dealing with foreign policies.

You are just like him... your hatred of HRC comes before the interests of the US. That is dangerous, and that is not putting America first.

I made it clear that I don't want national security information released - though Hillary through her incompetence made certain that our adversaries had access to them.

Nothing wrong with those "private" deleted emails being released. I am a Bernie supporter - I don't hate Hillary but I absolutely don't trust her one little bit. She is a liar and outright dishonest. Just yesterday it finally came out that she will support TPP once she is elected. How does a woman lie so much? If she supports TPP argue for it.

Why would you be ok with hackers releasing someone's personal emails? If you don't want national security matters released great, I also wouldn't want my personal email out there for all to see. I think either way, it's a terrible idea. Maybe asking them to secretly send them to republican members of congress so our national security interests are protected in case any classified info was actually hacked? But releasing to the press? Clearly he's all about his interest in becoming president and not our national security.

I am interested in pertinent information that affects our decision on how to vote be released. I don't really care what the vehicle is that is used to make that information known as long as it is done objectively and through and honest source.

Not the same at all. Unlike tax returns, no other candidate had to release their birth certificate. Even when he did release it, he was criticized because it was not the "long form," even though Hawaii does not release the long form to anyone, including the person himself. State of Hawaii made a special exception to release the long form.

And Trump has no intention of releasing the tax forms. I promise you he will never release them. He doesn't want to go to jail.

Trump's campaign manager confirmed today that they won't release his tax returns. It is very likely that the returns would document Trump's reliance on Russian financiers.

According to Republicans, all of the emails will include Hillary personally saying "stand down in Benghazi, I want all the bloodshed!" and other dire secrets you're sure are there, so it's weird you'd want them out there. Hacked. By invitation of a presidential candidate. For the "law and order" party.

I am a Sanders supporter, FYI ......... Clinton deleted emails that she claimed were personal. If they are still available anywhere - and the odds are they are available by someone who hacked her server - what is wrong with them being released? I am sure most people will not give a damn about her yoga classes, etc.

Aside from such an act being a federal crime?

Assange released the DNC emails. It may be a crime but cyberwarfare is a fact of life.

And Assange is a criminal hiding from extradition. Do you find him admirable? I don't.

I find transparency admirable. As a Sanders supporter I am glad that he released the information that showed the bias within the DNC and it resulted in DWS being kicked out.

I am all for transparency when it comes to our political process. I don't care whether it is Democrats, Republicans or anyone else in public political office. The only exception is when national security may be impacted.

DNC is a private organization, so they don't owe American taxpayers any transparency

They owe it to Democrats - and as a Bernie supporter - I am glad that their nefarious activities became known because of Assange.

Why would they owe it to an independent who admitted to using them and went right back to being an independent? They don't owe him to like him. Which is what those emails showed-that they didn't like him. Boohoo

If Obama and Biden believe she is trustworthy they are ignoring the opinion of 70% of the electorate who think she is not. IMO, and I have witnessed many, many, elections over the decades, this is the worst choice of candidates we have ever had. I have consistently voted for Democrats over the decades but I will not vote for Clinton under any circumstances. I can't vote for Trump either. I know others who feel the same way and will not vote for her. Some say they will vote for Trump and others say they will vote for the Stein.

If the Supreme Court were that important to Democrats we should have nominated someone who did not come with the baggage that Clinton does.

How would you all feel if Hillary said during a press conference that Russian hackers should hack into the IRS and release Trump's tax returns? After all, the IRS gets hacked all of the time, and you're all for transparency?

No, I think his vulnerability is that he probably paid little or no taxes. His further vulnerability may be that he did not donate very much to charity.

The former - if he made tens of millions of dollars - and managed to legally shelter the income will not look good. He has already said that he pays as little in taxes as he can using the tax laws.
