Arnold-Schwarzenegger-walks-out-of-interview-over-Trump-question

The former Governor of California walked off set the during an interview on (Sunrise Weekend) the morning program of Australia after being asked to opine on the possible Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

The interview that I only do about fitness and health, not about politics or my relationships, said host Angela Cox before ending to  interview.

The Schwarzenegger is currently in Australia to promote a series of fitness events, including the Arnold Strongman World Championship.

It is understandable that a journalist would be interested in thoughts of Arnold at the Trump. As Trump, Schwarzenegger is a politician-turned-Republican entertainment personality and was also named as a substitute of Trump on (The Celebrity Apprentice).

The Schwarzenegger endorsed Republican candidate and Ohio Gov. John Kasich earlier this month.

At the beginning of the interview, Cox had asked Schwarzenegger about his failed marriage with Maria Shriver. In 2011, it was revealed that he had a son with the couple's maid.

When asked about how to have that news made public changed his life, The Schwarzenegger refused to answer.

Well, the important thing is that I continue with my work, and health and fitness are what really matters to me.

The Schwarzenegger team maintains that he didn't storm out of the interview, but that Cox had exceeded its allotted time.

The journalist was allocated five minutes and we run over time, so cut the interview short, Australian publicist Max Markson, Schwarzenegger said. I think she's just trying to make a name for herself. She is new at the show. His line of questioning was inappropriate.

US unions plan attack on Donald Trump in attempt to derail presidential bid

Concerned labor group leaders are organizing ad campaigns and phone banks as Trump’s populist message on trade and jobs draws in union voters The prospect of a Donald Trump nomination has labor leaders scrambling to hold the line as the Republican frontrunner’s appeal to disaffected working-class voters threatens to upset the traditional political calculus. The majority of America’s almost 15 million unionized workers can be usually be relied upon to back the Democratic candidate in a presidential year, but leaders are concerned by Trump’s populist message on trade and jobs – and his insistence that union workers are just one of many groups on a long list of those he claims “love” him.

Orlando Pride shine before record crowd, auguring well for women's game

An NWSL-record crowd of 23,403 turned up for the expansion Orlando Pride’s inaugural home match, a sign the women’s game is discovering real traction The future of women’s soccer was on view in Orlando on Saturday night as a record 23,403 fans flocked to the Citrus Bowl for the inaugural home outing of the Orlando Pride in a part of Florida that is rapidly becoming synonymous with the beautiful game. It was the future of a league, of a new team, of fans new to the sport and even of a possible matrimonial tie-up as one of the men’s team’s most recognizable supporters was joined by a female counterpart in a development that is sure to please unicorn-lovers everywhere. The key feature was the highest attendance in the short history of the National Women’s Soccer League, as the crowd topped the previous best of 21,144 for the Portland-Seattle game last July. All week, the Pride – backed by the formidable marketing machine that is Orlando City SC – had flirted with the idea of a record ...

North Carolina's 'bathroom bill' battle embarrasses residents on both sides | TheNews Linzer

The escalating fight over LGBT rights has turned the historically sophisticated, inclusive southern state into a battleground of intolerance In the family of southern states, North Carolina has long been the cousin who made it. It enjoyed excellent universities, world-class industries, smooth roads and political stability. A whole class of people arose called “halfbacks”: people who retired from the north-east states to Florida, only to realize North Carolina was better and moved halfway back. Now, with the state squaring off against the federal government about who can use which bathrooms, the state finds itself at the pointy end of jokes, and lumped in with more strident southern states like Mississippi and – most bitterly – South Carolina. It’s unfamiliar for North Carolinians. It’s uncomfortable. And many are asking: how did we get here? How did the high-achieving, well-educated cousin end up with a black eye and busted knuckles, reeling over a public toilet? Continue reading....
