Hillary Clinton laced into Donald Trump on Monday for living a billionaire's lifestyle while "contributing nothing to our nation," in her first public remarks about a New York Times report that revealed Trump might have avoided paying federal income taxes for close to two decades.
Speaking at a campaign rally in Toledo, Ohio, the Democratic presidential nominee attacked her Republican opponent as representing "the same rigged system that he claims he's going to change."
"While millions of American families, including mine and yours, were working hard and paying our fair share, it seems he was contributing nothing to our nation. Imagine that," Clinton said. "In other words, Trump was taking from America with both hands and leaving the rest of us with the bill."
The Times story, Clinton said, "tells us everything we need to know about how Trump does business."

Not sure how you mean that. I’ve no problem with lawyers when necessary, as necessary and limited. Kinda like the constitution on the fed. But they have run amuk and have become way too self-aggrandized, inserting themselves anywhere and everywhere. Kinda like the fed. Wait...they control the fed, with the bankers...
Lawyers are a unique breed because they create more and more laws, statutes, regulations, rules and tax codes, thereby creating more and more need for more and more of their own kind, to interpret and argue same. And in most all legal arguments, win or lose, the
Visitors to America (I host some sometimes) think we must be kinda stupid, because of all the warning labels on things.
And in researching about lawyers, I found many articles about the profession’s mental health status being not good. Rates of dissatisfaction, depression, drinking and drug use, divorce, depression, suicide are notable.
I understand, respect and won’t argue that. But I will say “Enjoy today’s America. Lawyer up!”

He signs the fronts of them.
Who isn’t contributing????
Well, a reasonable conclusion can be made that the Clintons contributed to the sudden and untimely deaths of scores of people who just happened to cross their paths in an unfriendly manner.
How many are there now? There were three or four just in the past couple of months.
Here's something that tells us everything we need to know about how we feel after 8 years of a Clinton white house

Top 25 Most Evil People of the Millennium
Guess who came in First, Second and Sixth?
Sadly, yes. Instead of gunfights at noon, we have “I’ll see you in court.”
Instead of “Sorry, I can’t make that cake for you” followed by “OK, that’s too bad.” we have it followed by a lawsuit that kills the bakery.
That Vietnam War Memorial nothing?
Hillary, did you forget about his businesses and the people he employs?
There she goes projecting again.
Well, IF Trump is defeating the “Crypt Keeper”, he is definitely doing something constructive for the USA.
This thing is one evil POS.
22,000 Trump workers all pay lots of taxes in this country.
Did Hillary use the same tax system to not pay taxes?
Who at the Hillary campaign or IRS leaked Trump’s tax returns?
Is Hillary trying to keep this going for a debate question?
She knows things are going to be leaked about her now too.
She has the crooked media to cover for her and give her questions in advance of the next debate.
Says the destroyer of nations.
A business man who is willing to put it all on the line and employs thousands of people and actually creates wealth unlike you Hillary who only vacuums up and squanders other peoples money. Hillary you have never in your life created anything of value or contributed to the GDP in any way. The money you use was all given to you by other rich people because they want favors from you. Hillary you live off the backs of the working man like a parasite.
Hillary picks on Trump for losing his own money, yet she’s been in government her whole life and has lost countless Billions in other people’s money. Our government loses 800 billion in trade deficits every year, Hillary’s an idiot.
What’s worse losing your own money, or a corrupt, broke government losing your confiscated money?
Hillary lost 6 billion dollars while being secretary of state. Our tax paying money. Where’s the outrage there?
Trump was much too easy on the ‘rats this afternoon in defending himself, saying that many people in real estate at the time he filed the leaked tax return had had trouble but he was one who survived - the big real estate downturn in the early 90’s was primarily the result of congress’s meddling in the markets in the late 80’s when they decided too many people were making too much money and getting rich and so abolished the income tax credit for passive real estate investment - many banks and mortgage companies which held a lot of their funds in real estate, but didn’t actively participate in managing the properties, lost tremendous amounts when the values of the underlying properties plunged precipitously since they were no longer prized as investments, and Trump as a real estate investor undoubtedly also lost bigtime - once again it was government interfering in matters they didn’t fully understand that hurt the economy for all and Trump should throw this back at Hillary and all those who think they can tinker with the market and make everyone prosperous....
The problem is that it’s too wonkish of an answer. Trump is fundamentally right, of course, but Joe Six Pack doesn’t get it.
He just simply needs to stay he followed the law, pivot to his success and contrast it to Crooked Hillary. Then go off on her e-mails and the crooked foundation.
