Top Republicans attack Donald Trump in Hillary Clinton advert

In her latest move against Republican leadership contender Donald Trump, Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has used top GOP members to attack the New York billionaire.
From Mitt Romney, former Republican presidential candidate, calling him a "phoney" to Carly Fiorina, former GOP presidential contender, accusing Mr Trump of being the man "who only seems to feel big when he's trying to make other people look small", Mrs Clinton's campaign team used clips of their attacks on Mr Trump in a video.
The mocking video begins with Mr Trump claiming he will be a "unifier" for the party and then goes on to share snippets of other top Republicans criticising Mr Trump.
Ted Cruz, the candidate who dropped out after Mr Trump won the Indiana primary on Tuesday, is seen calling the property billionaire a "bully" while another former candidate, Marco Rubio describes him as the "most vulgar person who aspired to the presidency".

In the video, Mrs Clinton's team reminds the audience of the times when Mr Trump mocked a reporter with disabilities and claimed another reporter's questions were linked to her menstrual cycle.
At the end, former Florida governor Jeb Bush says: "He needs therapy."
The video was released just hours before John Kasich, Ohio governor and GOP nominee, pulled out of the race giving Mr Trump a clear path to the candidacy.
Mrs Clinton is hoping to win over Republicans dismayed by the prospect of Mr Trump representing them and will probably hope that this video convinces GOPers and Republican-leaning voters that even their own politicians oppose Mr Trump.
On Wednesday,  a top campaign aide to 2008 Republican nominee John McCain, gave his support to Mrs Clinton on Twitter. "I'm with her," said Mark Salter.
Another Republican strategist who worked for Mr Cruz told Associated Press he would be "actively working against" Mr Trump, which he recognised meant he would support Mrs Clinton.
"Anything right now that would allow Donald Trump to become president is the wrong move, so the de facto result is that Hillary would win," Ben Howe said.

As the fight between the two likely contenders in November's election becomes gets nastier, Mr Trump claimed there were "tremendous numbers of Democrats that have voted for me" in an interview with MSNBC.
"Hundreds and hundreds of people were coming in that were registered Democrats that wanted to vote for Donald Trump."
And on Wednesday, he told Fox News: “I think we’re going to beat Hillary Clinton. She’s horrible on the economy, horrible on jobs, she’s really horrible on the military.”

British universities account for 10% of the world’s best when it comes to global reputation, but many have dropped down the rankings in the past year.
The Oxbridge institutions just managed to stay in the top five of the 100 Times Higher Education World Reputation Rankings, but both have moved down two places since last year.
The University of Bristol and Durham University have fallen out of the top 100, bringing the UK’s total number of universities in the rankings to 10 for 2016.
Britain is second only to the US for the number of universities making an appearance this year, with Harvard at the top of the list for the sixth year in a row.
Times Higher Education rankings editor Phil Baty said the UK’s drop-off comes as Asian universities move up in the rankings and questioned whether funding cuts have contributed.

He said: “The UK will have to ensure that it can still draw in talent and investment from across the world and it does not lose its position at the heart of higher education’s global elite.”
Baty said six universities, four from the US as well as Oxford and Cambridge, have dominated the top half of the rankings for the past five years, but added that other countries are making gains.
He said: “Outside this tiny supergroup, the global higher education world is changing, and some leading lights in the US and UK, for example, household names, have lost ground, while universities in China, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea are all making progress. We now have a Chinese university in the world top 20 for the first time, and another right behind it in the top 30.”

The Top 100 Players of 2016

"The Top 100 Players of 2016" kicked off Wednesday on NFL Network with the unveiling of Nos. 91 through 100.

Are there 91 better players than Andrew Luck?
No way, but that's where the Colts quarterback plopped down in the first installment of "The Top 100 Players of 2016."

Tumbling an outrageous 85 spots from last year, Luck -- at No. 92 -- paid the price for an up-and-down campaign that saw him miss nine starts due to a subluxed shoulder and lacerated kidney that ultimately ended his season.
Before the injuries, Luck failed to throw the ball with the same authority we saw in previous years. Playing behind a messy line and tied to a Colts offense that broke down in every possible way, Luck's season was a disappointment. Somehow, that led this year's Top 100 decision-makers -- a hazy cadre of player-voters -- to toss Luck into the cellar of this frivolous offseason exercise.
Of course, these are the same voting-booth masterminds who left Jimmy Graham off the list in 2013, skipped past Julio Jones in 2014, and decided two years ago that Aaron Rodgers wasn't a top-10 player.
Consider it a vivid exploration into madness. It's still unclear what our precious voters are deciding: Where Luck ranked last year, where they see him for 2016 -- or where he lands from a career-perspective. Do the voters themselves even know?
Good luck finding one sane general manager who would chose 91 players before "settling" on Luck. Based on his immense frame, on-field talents and NFL resume, Indy's star passer belongs much closer to where he ranked last year -- at No. 7. Instead, shaky pass protection and a bum kidney have shipped Luck into a netherworld. Good work, fellas.
Other takeaways from Wednesday's premiere:

» Raiders fans will argue that Derek Carr belongs higher than No. 100. I agree, based on my theory that quarterbacks, as a group, should dominate the top 20. They don't call it the most important position in sports for nothing. Instead, Carr was rated as a less-important team-building chip than Cameron Jordan (No. 99) and a rash of interior O-linemen. Another question: Where does this leave Teddy Bridgewater?
» Jeremy Maclin anchored Kansas City's passing game last season, hauling in a career-best 87 catches. Naturally, that led voters to drop him 32 spots from 2015. There's no rock-solid explanation for the tumble. Maclin made the Chiefs look smart for adding him in free agency.
» Only two of the first 10 players revealed -- Luck and Maclin -- cracked this list in 2015. The other eight are all first-timers, including a from-the-wilderness Gary Barnidge at No. 94. After failing to top 13 catches in any of his previous six seasons, the Browns tight end broke out for 1,043 yards and nine touchdowns off 79 grabs. Can he repeat the feat under Hue Jackson?
» From the "I'd be labeled a drifting lunatic had I predicted this a year ago" file: Richie Incognito checks in at No. 97. Emerging from an untoward bullying scandal in Miami, the Bills guard made good on the faith shown by coach Rex Ryan. Incognito ranked as the second-best player at his position in 2015, starting all 16 games and drawing positive reviews from teammates.

» Thousand-yard seasons were enough to help Sammy Watkins (No. 96) and Jarvis Landry (No. 98) make their first Top 100. Both players are candidates for major jumps on next year's list.
» He's no Q-rating fireball, but Mike Daniels (No. 95) should rank higher. The Packers defensive lineman doesn't pile up flashy numbers, but he operated as a constant nuisance for opponents in 2015. Green Bay thought enough of his play to hand Daniels a four-year, $42 million extension. That's money well-spent for an under-the-radar gem.
» At No. 91, Travis Kelce will use his place on this list as motivation. A reliable staple in coach Andy Reid's air attack, the Chiefs tight end doesn't see the ball as often as Rob Gronkowski, but "Baby Gronk" boasts similar traits and a knack for game-changing plays. Is he more valuable than Luck, though? Are any of these guys? Come on.
