Clinton woos former Republican secretaries of state
The Clinton campaign is wooing former Republican Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice, James Baker, George Shultz, and Henry Kissinger and other GOP bigs who have withheld support for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, Politico reported.
The Clinton campaign has been reaching out, trying to persuade these Republican stalwarts to cross the aisle and support Hillary Clinton, said the Beltway publication.
The outreach effort comes as Trump struggles to win institutional Republican support. Relations worsened last week when he failed to endorse Speaker of the House Paul Ryan in his re-election bid before finally coming around Friday night.(nypost.com)…[+]
