WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama formally endorsed Hillary Clinton's bid for the White House on Thursday, praising his former secretary of state's experience and grit, and urging Democrats to unite behind her in the fight against Republicans in the fall.
BOSTON – After the top elected Republican in the country said that his party's presumptive presidential nominee had made "textbook" racist remarks about a federal judge, Donald Trump's chief backer in the Bay State dismissed the controversy.
"These have been reluctant Republicans to accept his nomination to begin with. It doesn't surprise me that they're looking for reasons to, I suppose, continue to say that they're right," said Rep. Geoff Diehl, a Whitman Republican.
