Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has slammed U.S. President Barack Obama for endorsing Hillary Clinton as the Democratic candidate despite being under “criminal investigation”.Trump, however, said he was ready to face Clinton in the November elections, which he claimed would attract the largest ever voter turnout.“You have a President coming out and endorsing somebody who is under criminal investigation. Is this supposed to be the way the country supposed to be?” Trump told his cheering supporters at an election rally in Richmond, Virginia yesterday.

This was Trump’s first public rally since Obama endorsed Clinton as Democratic presidential nominee against Senator Bernie Sanders from Vermont.The rally at spacious Richmond Coliseum attracted several thousands people. But the arena having a capacity of 13,500 was more than half empty.Trump said the rally was organised at a short notice of less than one day.The real estate mogul from New York said he would make a major policy speech on Clinton in New Hampshire on Monday. To the cheering of his supporters, Trump described this as a “crooked Hillary” speech.

“There is so much corruption. If the system works, she is not allowed to run. It is really unfair for the other people,” Trump said referring to a latest news report that an Indian American Rajiv Fernando was appointed to the important International Security Advisory board because of his alleged donations to the Clinton Foundation.The Advisory Board advises the State Department on nuclear weapons and other issues of national security. Based out of Chicago, Fernando is a securities trader president of Chopper Trading.

According to ABC News, Fernando was a major bundler for the Obama Campaign, raising more than $500,000 for his re-election cycle. And before his appointment at the State Department, he gave between $100,000 and #250,000 to the William J. Clinton Foundation.Trump cited this as another example for corruption by Hillary Clinton. “He made a contribution of $250,000 and all of a sudden he’s on this very important and vital board,” he said.Reiterating that Clinton should not be allowed to run for the elections, he said he is ready to run against the former U.S. Secretary of State and exuded confidence of winning the election.

Trump said the debate against Clinton would be the “biggest debate” in the history and would be the “biggest voter turnout” in the history of this country.Countries like China and Mexico, he alleged are destroying the United States. He reiterated that he would make the wall on the Mexico border, which some day may be called as Trump Wall. “Someday, people would call it a Trump wall,” he said, adding this would be a strong, tall and beautiful wall.“Our taking (sic) is being taken advantage of because we have very stupid people representing in trade. It is not going to happen. We are losing badly. We have the smartest people in the world. But we are using dumbest people,” he alleged.

Trump claimed that companies would start setting up manufacturing plants in the U.S., because there would be consequences for moving jobs overseas. “We are going to bring jobs back to America,” he said, adding his administration would lower taxes and simplify tax codes.“Hillary Clinton is going to raise taxes beyond anyone imagination,” he claimed.“Polls are looking good in Virginia,” he said. Pollsters are saying that Virginia is a key swing state for the November general elections. He claimed that he would win the presidential elections in Florida and New York. “Unless we win in November, it means nothing. It would be waste of time and money,” he said and asked people to come out and vote in large numbers in the November general elections.

“I am the least racist person that you have ever looked at,” he said, referring to the allegations that he is a racist
Trump lashed out at Clinton for not using the term “radical Islamic terrorism” because she does not want to offend Obama. “Because she does not want to go to jail. The system is rigged. Bernie found it out,” he said.“If we had guns in those rooms, and bullets going in opposite direction,” not so many people would have been killed, he said. “We are going to win again and we are going to kick ISIS, we are going to win in trade, we are going to win on the Supreme Court… we are going to win so much that you people are going to (get) sick and tired of winning. We are going to win, win, win,” he said.

Stephen Miller, a senior policy advisor to the Trump Campaign, alleged that as Secretary of State, Clinton gave a prominent national security post dealing with nuclear security to someone who paid $5 million to the Clinton Foundation.

A Maryland man newly released from being jailed on a criminal mischief charge was shot by police outside a Dallas airport after hitting his ex-girlfriend and battering her car with a traffic cone and large landscaping rocks, police say.Shawn Nicholas Diamond (29), of Edgewood, Maryland, was in stable condition in a hospital after the Friday incident outside the Dallas Love Field terminal, Dallas Police Chief David Brown said.Mr. Brown said Diamond had rocks in his hands as he advanced menacingly toward an officer who had his gun drawn. He said Diamond was heard telling the officer, “You’re going to have to shoot.”

Diamond was released on bond earlier Friday after spending the night in a county jail, police in the Dallas suburb of Carrollton said. He was arrested on Thursday after causing $3,700 in damage to city-owned trees by reckless driving, Carrollton police spokeswoman Jolene DeVito said.During the drive, Mr. Brown said, Diamond hit the woman. After arriving at the airport terminal, he said, Diamond was pulling his luggage from the woman’s car when he grabbed a traffic cone, smashed the car’s windshield with it, then began picking up large landscaping rocks nearby and hurling them through the car’s windows.

Surveillance video shows an officer intervening and aiming his gun at Diamond as he starts to advance with the rocks. The video has no sound.Diamond darts around the officer, who shoots him.Mr. Brown said the officer ordered Diamond to stay down. He said the officer fired several more shots when Diamond got up and began running.Another officer is seen on the video brandishing a stun gun he apparently never fired.The officer who shot Diamond has been removed from patrol duty pending an internal review of the shooting, Mr. Brown said.A video posted by Instagram user flashyfilmsand credited to Bryan Armstrong also shows the commotion on the curb outside baggage claim at Dallas Love Field. The shooting can be heard in that video.

Amid the sound of nine gunshots and an officer’s shouts to “get down,” some people scramble while others stand watching before officers order them back inside. Toward the end of the video, one officer is seen pointing his gun at someone near the glass exterior of the airport.Officials said one bullet hit an exterior glass wall and the rest hit the suspect. Dallas police Sgt. Mike Beattie, who is stationed at Love Field, said the bullet that hit the glass wall outside the airport’s baggage claim area didn’t penetrate it because of the protective film. One officer at the scene, who would not be named, said he was told that the victim “absorbed” all the other bullets.

Beattie said airport police receive specific training to be attentive to suspicious-looking travellers and that the Dallas Police Department provides “crowded-environment training” to all its officers every two years. Beattie said the officer who fired the shots is a Dallas police veteran, but he would not identify him.Some airport operations were temporarily disrupted, but the airport remained open. Spokesman Jose Torres said some people, after hearing shots, ran through security so everyone had to be rescreened.Security checkpoint operations were back to normal Friday afternoon, airport officials said. Flights were departing but with many delays.

Traveller Lucinda Fonseca told WFAA—TV that she and her husband were coming out of the baggage claim area when they saw police approaching the man throwing rocks and one of the officers drew a gun.“The man was yelling at the cops, basically saying ‘shoot me shoot me, I dare you,’ something to that effect,” Ms.Fonseca said, adding she then heard gunfire.“I crouched down on the ground,” she said. “I didn’t know where the bullets were going.”

Southwest Airlines, the dominant airline at Love Field, said in a statement that they were working with air traffic controllers nationwide to manage inbound flights. According to the flight-tracking website FlightAware, at least eight flights operated by Southwest and one by Virgin America were diverted to other airports.Beattie said this is the first shooting in the 89-year history of Love Field, located a few miles from downtown.
