“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.

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."

Clinton ain't even the nominee yet! Sanders may even beat her, flip those superdelegates and guess who's winning by 200 champ?

Christ are you awful at reading words.

Nowhere did I say that Clinton was the Democratic nominee, Champ.

But go ahead and keep on keepin' on.

Loved how you bolded this. So, this is the one policy area that he might have a remote chance of doing well. Of course, he'll just have the country file for bankruptcy like he did with his businesses and have the government bail him out. Oh wait..

Bankruptcies and bail outs are actually fuctional opposites. One liquidates and leads to price discovery of the actual value if the asset, bail outs artificially increase the value of a failing asset. One solves the problem and the other leads to a larger disaster down the road. The fact that you conflate private parties voluntarily arbitrating a resolution and all of society invuluntarily getting dragged down by legal counterfeiting of money in order to benefit special interest groups that bribe the government is interesting.

Pappy Bush was the one who set up NAFTA to begin with, the original idea for it was Saint Reagan.

What's funny is you actually think Trump is going to make your life better. What's he going to do? Deposit $1m into your bank account.

He isn't going to do much. Remember Obama? He didn't do sh*t.

Worry about yourself. Everyday I ask myself "what can I do today to make myself better." I don't worry about politics because it doesn't matter much. These politicians will say what they need to so they can get into office.

My focus now is on making money. How can I double my income this year. Next year will be the same. We live in the wealthiest country in the world, yet many people have such a small view on what they can actually obtain.

Why, that's un-American! Some famous Democrat guy said 'Ask not what you can do for your country - ask what can your country do for you.' I think that's how it went, wasn't it?

My, how the Democrat Party has changed.

How can she eviscerate Trump? All he has to do is bring up all of the past nonsense of her and Bill to show she's not for the American people and corrupt.

He could easily bring up certain points that were contained in her email scandal, he could bring up her hubby selling our military technology to the Chinese, he could bring up Benghazi, there's so much that Trump could tear her down with.

But then again, I'm sure she has some ammo too against Trump, but how much weight will it carry when compared to her?

If I were Trump, this would be my plan of attack....

I'd blame Bill's sexual transgressions on Hillary.
Especially his blatantly lying on TV to millions, denying Monica ever happened.
Except, for that "dress". DNA spots and all.
Damn that dress... (said Bill to Hillary).
I would link together their ability and easy at lying as typical of the Clintons.
Birds of a feather, if you get my drift.
The Bonnie and Clyde of American politics.

Then as candidate Donald Trump, I would bring up the mysterious death of their friend Vince Foster.
If Trump can suggest the father of Ted Cruz had a hand in the assignation of JFK, Trump could easily suggest the Clintons had Vince Foster knocked off because Foster was about to jump ship and spill the poop on the Clintons.

Remember, it had been suggested, back then, that Vince Foster was bisexual and had boyfriends.
And that park where Vince Foster was found dead in was considered a gathering place for gays and quick sex.
So Trump could suggest Vince Foster was lured to the park for a sexual lunch-time quickie, and the Clintons hired an assassin waiting in the park for Vince to show up.
A murder for hire by the Clintons, made to appear as a suicide.
Simply to avoid any risk to Bill's candidacy, plus to keep Vince Foster quiet.

And back to Monica Lewinsky.
Remember, back then BEFORE the dress, Bill Clinton emphatically denied he had anything to do with Monica Lewinsky.
And if people remember back then, the insinuation had just begun suggesting Monica Lewinsky was a nut job, infatuated with a president, Lewinsky had made up the entire affair because Monica Lewinsky was delusional. Sick. A love crazed female.
THAT was where this was heading, back then, before "the dress".
If that dress had never come to light, who really knows how far the Clintons would have gone to silence Monica Lewinsky?
If that dress had never come to light, Monica Lewinsky could have easily been found in some hotel room, dead from a self inflected gun shot or from an overdose, along with a suicide note. A suicide note not written by Lewinsky, but appearing to be.
All faked and orchestrated by... BILL and HILLARY CLINTON.
That could have all happened, if.... that dress had not existed.

For sure...
Trump has plenty of low down dirty laundry to stir up concerning the Clintons.
And we all know that for Donald, this would be easy to do.
Because as Donald would say, birds of a feather flock together.
Bill lies. Hillary lies. They are as one.
And who only knows the evil Bill and Hillary Inc. have gotten away with?
I mean, if someone like Bill Clinton could and would lie to the face of millions of Americans without ever once flinching, could the Clintons orchestrate a murder?
Would Monica Lewinsky have died from an apparent suicide?
Could Vince Foster have been murdered?

Donald, there you go.
Expect a bill for my services. ;)

oh sp3d3y, you are so fucking delusional. Hilary has been deflecting this same republican bullshit for decades without a single scratch. Her dusting up of the entire congressional witch hunt on Benghazi was a masterstroke in crushing the balls of weak, bitter, republican stooges.

Trump still can't get over a decades-old sentence calling him a tiny-handed man.

you are such a goddamn toolshed.

But only Clinton could get it to pass by strong arming/silencing the unions and those against it in his own party, Bush Sr. wouldn't have had a snowballs chance in hell of passing it.

this is not a sensible response. He said "what I can do to make myself better." Not "what the country can do to make me better."
