Trustworthy? How about her performance while senator of NY?

Hillary Clinton’s jobs record as a New York senator – which her campaign has made a centerpiece of her pitch to voters – is coming under fresh scrutiny, with a new report claiming her economic initiatives fell flat for workers, while benefiting deep-pocketed donors.

So there you have it. If you are rich like the slickster, you will make out like a bandit. If not you're on your own. No wonder slick is promoting her so much.

as far as I've been able to tell, I'll do just dandy under Trump's newly revealed plan. How the hell can you expect to EVER develop or rebuild the middle class with a top rate of 33%. Plus, how do you pay for ANYTHING, let alone expand the military and rebuild the infrastructure to the tune of 1 trillion dollars? Moreover, what did he mean about slashing 'regulations'.....? Like, those that keep our food, water, retail products and all SAFE? I'll pass.

Like all things that come out of Trump's mouth, no details whatsoever. Blowhard. Someone needs to remind Trump that reinstating Glass Steagall is to bring back some of those evil regulations, and last I heard, bringing that back was in both party's platforms. :wink:

As for Hillary, she seems to have difficulty with admitting to making mistakes. She's too comfortable lying to cover up those mistakes too. She just can't admit she lied to the public about it. She keeps tiptoeing around it and in the process, is making herself look like someone who just can't handle the fact she not perfect and who doesn't want the public to see her in that light either.

If you think Trump or a GOP majority reinstates either Glass-Steagall or a tax code that pays the bills and plans for the future while disincentivizing income gaps(we had one that did exactly that for a while, and it worked), you have a hope I don't have.......

Oh, I have no illusions that the Republicans really want to bring back Glass Steagall. I'm willing to bet they're hoping that all those deluded Trump lovers will believe their con, which I can guarantee you that they'll renige on with some lame excuse about how it would hurt the Stock Market or economy and it's really in our best interests to leave it dead, after they get their boy Trump elected. :wink:
