Clinton and Trump tussle over economy

Hillary Clinton has “extraordinary potential” to do very well with young voters this November, but it won’t be easy.

The Clinton campaign immediately seized on Trump’s remarks, criticizing the bellicose New Yorker for instigating violence.

Presidential Nominee: The mines will be gone.

LISA DESJARDINS: That was Trump on offense. “The answer is not to rant and rave, or cut ourselves off from the world”, she told a crowd of factory workers. “By the way, and if she gets the pick-if she gets the pick of her judges, nothing you can do, folks”.

“A person seeking to be the president of the U.S. should not suggest violence in any way”, it said. “But I’ll tell you what, that will be a frightful day”.

Trump’s critics, including 2012 Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and other fellow Republicans, have said his refusal raises questions about his net worth, his charitable contributions, his business dealings and various other ties, including with Russian Federation.

When asked about his taxes at the time, Nixon willingly released the returns that had been under audit: “I welcome this kind of examination, because people have got to know whether or not their president is a crook”. It’s a political power. What? Are people complaining that I’m saying that he was the founder of ISIS? So does this rise to the level of inciting his supporters to violence against his opponent? House Speaker Paul Ryan labeled the quote as a “joke gone bad”. “I hope he clears it up quickly”.

He drew heavy criticism for suggesting gun rights activists could take action against Clinton, a statement he later said was meant to rally votes against her.

In May, Trump’s then-campaign manager Corey Lewandowski said there is “nothing to learn” from the returns.

CNBC said the returns will show Clinton paid an effective tax rate of 35 percent and gave about 10 percent to charity.

Earlier on the show, Marks denounced Trump’s claim that President Barack Obama founded ISIS, calling it “crazy talk”.

A top official at the agency told the cable news network that there had been “more than one conversation” about the comment.

“He’s bat-sh-t insane but I don’t think he would call for the assassination of another presidential candidate”, he said.

It’s led to a new line from the Democratic nominee. “At long last, Donald Trump has left the Republican Party few options but to act decisively and get this political train wreck off the tracks before something bad happens”. And some of these were really, really bad, and illegal.

LISA DESJARDINS: With three months left in the election, the candidates are hitting hard and looking especially to big states.
