Photo: AFPWashington: Donald Trump rode to the top of the Republican presidential field by projecting an image of strength. Recent surveys from Gallup and Fox News show Trump with an advantage, while voters sided with Clinton in ABC News and CNN polls. After Trump railed against political correctness and attacked Clinton by name 18 times in Monday’s address, one of his closest confidants declared success. Trump’s campaign released a statement that the Post, one of the nation’s most respected newspapers, had “no journalistic integrity” and was being used by “the owners of Amazon” for tax avoidance. An ABC News/Washington Post poll at the same time showed a similar advantage for Clinton on who would better handle international relations.
