WASHINGTON, (APP/AFP): Donald Trump hit out hard at Hillary
Clinton and Ted Cruz Sunday, sounding unapologetic two days before a key primary in Indiana he says will decide the Republican presidential race.
A new poll ahead of the winner-take-all vote Tuesday put the
Republican frontrunner far in front of Cruz, who is hoping the Midwestern state will act as a Trump firewall.
Speaking on “Fox News Sunday,” Trump concentrated on attacking
Clinton, doubling down on his much-criticized statement that the likely Democratic nominee’s only appeal to voters is the “woman’s card.”
“She’s done a lousy job in so many ways and even women don’t like
her,” he said. “But it is the woman’s card and she plays it. And I will let you know in about six months whether or not she plays it well, but I don’t think she’ll play it well.”
“If she were not a woman, she wouldn’t even be in this race,” he added.
Clinton dismissed his comments on CNN.
“I have a lot of experience dealing with men who sometimes get off
the reservation in the way they behave and how they speak,” she said, going on to criticize a talk Trump gave this week, billed as his first major foreign policy speech.
“I found it disturbing,” she said.
With a path to the Democratic nomination for her rival Bernie Sanders
virtually impossible, Clinton sounded confident looking ahead to November’s
general election, saying she would work with him to shape her party’s platform.
The Vermont senator who calls himself a Democratic socialist wasn’t
throwing in the towel, however.
At a news conference in Washington, Sanders appealed to hundreds of
so-called superdelegates in a bid to snatch the nomination.
These number around 700 and, in contrast to “pledged” delegates, can
vote for any candidate at the party’s national convention in Philadelphia in July, which culminates the nomination process.
Either candidate needs 2,383 delegates in order to clinch the nomination.
Currently, Clinton has 2,176, including 510 superdelegates, while Sanders has 1,400, including 41 superdelegates, according to a CNN tally.
