Canditates Attack the Trump Beckett Galloway-Chapa
Candidates Attack Trump in Second Republican Debate (Sept. 16): A second Republican debate is held at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in California. Fiorina seizes the opportunity in the debate to address Trump's controversial comments attacking her appearance in a recent Rolling Stone interview. Responding to his comments in the debate, Fiorina says, "I think women all over this country heard very clearly what Mr. Trump said." Her response receives thunderous applause from the audience.(Sept. 21): Less than a week after the debate, Scott Walker holds a press conference to announce that he is quitting his Republican presidential campaign. Since entering the race, Walker has been slipping in the polls. During the press conference, Walker says, "I encourage other Republican presidential candidates to consider doing the same so that the voters can focus on a limited number of candidates who can offer a positive, conservative alternative to the current front-runner." That front-runner, Donald Trump, still leads in the polls after two debates.

Trump is a joke that got old a few years ago when he joked about running for president. Ha ha it was funny then but it's a nightmare now.
ReplyDeleteKind of disappointing how he's still the front-runner after all of the things he's said.
ReplyDeleteI always thought that him running for president was a joke but now I'm starting to see it a different way and honestly it's kind of scary. Especially since he's in the lead and his views for the country are so insane it makes no sense. -Mattie Whisler 9th Period Flex
