Trump ready to fight Clinton after being set free of Republican "shackles"

Xinhua- U.S. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said Tuesday that he was ready to fight Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton after being set free from the “shackles” of the Republican establishment.
Trump made the remarks while attending a fundraiser in Dallas, Texas, according to the Dallas Morning News. He told a group of about 700 donors that “the shackles” have been taken off him, freeing him to “fight for America the way I want to.”
Trump said this in reference to U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan, who said Monday that he would not campaign for Trump any longer after a damaging video of lewd comments led several GOP officeholders to abandon Trump’s campaign. He called U.S. lawmakers who abandoned him “hypocrites.”

Trump attacked Ryan, saying in a barrage of tweets that the speaker was “weak and ineffective” and had provided “zero support” for his candidacy. He had grown as a candidate and looks forward to finishing the job against Clinton, Trump said, adding that “we have to focus on what is important. What’s happening today.”

On Tuesday, Trump also participated in a fundraiser in San Antonio, a city in southern Texas. He told the donors that he badly wanted to beat Clinton and that it would be a disappointment if he lost.
A group of San Antonio police officers appeared to violate city policy when they posed for a video with Trump wearing the Republican’s “Make America Great Again” red hats. The city’s police bars employees from participating in any sort of political activity while on duty.
San Antonio Mayor Ivy R. Taylor and the city’s police chief have apologized for the incident, saying they were disappointed by the police officers’ lack of judgement and police must be above politics and serve everyone equally.
Meanwhile, Trump on Tuesday unleashed vitriol at Republican party establishment, as party leaders either distanced themselves from or abandoned their bellicose standard-bearer after his leaked lewd women comments.

“Disloyal R’s (Republicans) are far more difficult than Crooked Hillary. They come at you from all sides,” said Trump on Twitter. “They don’t know how to win – I will teach them!” In other posts on Tuesday, Trump called House Speaker Paul Ryan “very weak and ineffective leader” and Senator John McCain “very foul mouthed” who “begged for my support during his primary.”  

Trump also proclaimed in one post that “shackles have been taken off” him and he could now “fight for Americans the way I want to.”  The attacks at his fellow Republicans came at a time when Trump was scrambling to tackle the political fallout of new disclosure of his past lewd comments about women.
In a leaked audio clip recorded in 2005, Trump made lewd remarks about an unidentified married woman he hoped to have sex with, boasted about how easy it is to attract women with his celebrity status and even talked about groping women.

“When you’re a star, women let you do anything,” he was recorded as saying. The New York billionaire later apologized for the “locker room banter” in the audio, but claimed that his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton’s husband, former President Bill Clinton, “has said far worse to me on the golf course — not even close.”

However, Trump’s bid to shift the focus appeared to have failed as Ryan, the highest-ranking Republican official, and other party leaders, released statements blasting the billionaire.
At least 30 Republican governors and lawmakers, including Senator McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, had so far made clear that they would not vote for Trump.
Though he had so far not rescinded his endorsement of Trump, House Speaker Ryan on Monday told fellow Republican lawmakers in a conference call that he would neither defend nor campaign with Trump.

Nelson Mandela once said: “A critical, independent, and investigative press is the lifeblood of any democracy. The press must be free from state interference. It must have the economic strength to stand up to the blandishments of government officials. It must have sufficient independence from vested interests to be bold and inquiring without fear or favor. It must enjoy the protection of the constitution, so that it can protect our rights as citizens.”
