He's going to make mincemeat out of her! Holy shit. What fortune to have a simultaneous meteoric rise and such a weak candidate in Clinton gifted to him. Call him the underdog all you want, it only plays more into his likability against a genuinely vulnerable candidate like hillary. Good luck hillary when and if you can even put Bernie Sanders away! lol. There's a saying in politics: "Momentum matters."

“She doesn't understand trade,” Trump said after his win in Indiana forced Sen. Ted Cruz to drop out of the race and all-but cemented the nomination for the real estate mogul. "Her husband signed perhaps in the history of the world the single worst trade deal ever done. It's called NAFTA.”
...
This time, he hit Clinton by name on trade and also focused on another area of possible vulnerability, specifically her policies and speech on energy jobs. Trump mentioned how Hillary said in March that "we're going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business." She apologized to a tearful, recently laid off coal miner on Monday for those remarks, but they are clearly still a weakness that Trump plans to exploit.
...
Again, Trump faces incredibly steep odds of defeating Clinton in November. But he seems to have realized that trade and jobs is the one policy area that has even the remotest possibility of helping him pull off a moon shot victory. Bloomberg last month reported that, according to its most recent survey on the subject, “[o]pposition to free trade is a unifying concept even in a deeply divided electorate, with almost two-thirds of Americans favoring more restrictions on imported goods instead of fewer.” Additionally, 44 percent of Americans said NAFTA—which is synonymous with President Bill Clinton’s economic policies—was bad for the U.S. economy and only 29 percent saying it was good.
