Trump describes 'stampede of love' | |
Trump tells a story about a rally with so many people that safety and fire officials grew concerned about a dangerous stampede. | |
“It’s a stampede of love,” Trump said. Yesterday he said: “Love can kill, too.” | |
“They said, we have very strong people, but Mr Trump, they’re not nearly as strong as 45,000 people.” | |
That’s a made up number – Trump has not had a rally that big. | |

Trump claims credit for new FBI inquiry | |
Trump keeps interrupting his stump speech, which is all about corruption in Washington including in the justice department and at the FBI, to mention the new FBI inquiry, which he then takes credit for. | |
“I’m very proud that the FBI was willing to do this, actually,” Trump says at one point. | |
Earlier, he said: | |
But real change means getting rid of the corruption in Washington. And wow, maybe that’s happening. I won my first primary in New Hampshire. And now [this news]. This is bigger than Watergate. | |
At another point: “Right now that takes care of itself. I think.” | |

Ryan: 'Clinton has nobody but herself to blame' | |
Here’s a statement on the FBI move by House speaker Paul Ryan: | |
Yet again, Hillary Clinton has nobody but herself to blame. She was entrusted with some of our nation’s most important secrets, and she betrayed that trust by carelessly mishandling highly classified information. This decision, long overdue, is the result of her reckless use of a private email server, and her refusal to be forthcoming with federal investigators. I renew my call for the Director of National Intelligence to suspend all classified briefings for Secretary Clinton until this matter is fully resolved.” | |

I have great respect for the fact that the FBI and the department of justice are now willing to have the courage to right the horrible mistake that they made.

“For all of the talk of Hillary Clinton supposedly going on offense with Red States, she’s campaigning in Blue States, and we’re making a play for Blue States,” Miller said, inaccurately. In fact Clinton is campaigning in traditionally red-leaning and battleground states such as Arizona. “Both in New Mexico and in Michigan we’re showing dead heats in those states,” Miller said. | “For all of the talk of Hillary Clinton supposedly going on offense with Red States, she’s campaigning in Blue States, and we’re making a play for Blue States,” Miller said, inaccurately.
