Several weeks ago, the mainstream news media reported that Donald Trump's campaign was on life support. Polls showed him losing to Hillary Clinton by ever greater margins. He was blasted for his aggressive response to the terror attack in Orlando and he continued to receive criticism over his negative comments regarding the Hispanic judge handling the Trump University case. The media was also fixated on an anti-Hillary tweet that supposedly featured the Star of David with images of cash in the background. Trump denied the charge, but had to deal with the media fallout for weeks.
In the meantime, Hillary was castigated, but exonerated, by FBI Director James Comey for her handling of classified and top secret emails. Although Comey said Clinton was “extremely careless” in the way she treated the classified material, he claimed she did not have the intent to violate the law.
