Meanwhile, Trump talked about rejuvenating the USA coal and steel industries but made no mention of IT. Clinton is “the candidate of the past”, he said.

“It’s true that too often past trade deals have been sold to the American people with rosy scenarios that didn’t pan out”, Clinton said.
CLAIM: “We do know that the 400 richest taxpayers in America would get an average tax cut of more than $15 million a year from this loophole”, Clinton said.
“When it comes to creating jobs, I would argue that it’s not even close”, she said.
Her appearance follows a Trump speech on the economy, also in MI, on Monday.
“The down to earth talk she used today I really liked”, she said.
The Clinton campaign gleefully pointed all of this out and also released a video that included Republicans like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and former presidential nominee Mitt Romney calling for his returns to be released in press clips.
Trump, who has released a self-reported financial disclosure form, said he will not make his tax returns public until the Internal Revenue Service completes audits of them. “He refuses to do what every other presidential candidate in decades has done and release his tax returns”, Clinton said Thursday.
Clinton and her running mate, Virginia Senator Tim Kaine, released their tax returns on Thursday in an effort to pressure the Republican nominee, Donald Trump, into doing the same. But those remarks were quickly eclipsed by the latest in a series of controversial statements which Trump has spent much of the week trying to clarify.
Trump’s comments Friday echoed – but went even further than – his statements last week in OH that he’s “afraid the election is going to be rigged”.
“Donald Trump is hiding behind fake excuses and backtracking on his previous promises to release his tax returns”, Palmieri continued. “Clinton. We must take people at their word”, said Swalwell on Twitter.
Clinton’s address in Warren built on two back-to-back speeches she made on the economy back in June, when she laid out five economic goals for her presidency.
Both candidates used MI to disclose their economic proposals, while taking a shot or two at each other along the way. The former manufacturing powerhouse has been hard hit by the decline of the automobile industry and the real estate market.
Mr Trump has struggled to keep the focus on his economic proposal week after fresh controversy with his comments about the Second Amendment.
“Don’t believe the garbage you read – Donald Trump, the Republican Party, all of you, we are going to put him in the White House and save this country together”, Priebus said.

“My message to every worker in MI and across America is this”, Clinton said Thursday.
