Clinton knocks Trump's lavish lifestyle
CNN ^ | April 25, 2016 | Dan Merica

Hillary Clinton cast Donald Trump as out of touch with the United States while campaigning Monday in Delaware, arguing that the Republican front-runner flies into states, gives speeches and then returns to the lap of luxury without listening to voters' problems.

"Donald Trump says wages are too high in America and doesn't support raising the minimum wage and I have said, 'Come out of those towers named for yourself and actually talk and listen to people,'" Clinton said. "At some point, if you want to be president of the United States, you have to get familiar with the United States, you have to spend time with Americans of all sorts and backgrounds in every part of our country."

Clinton has started to turn her focus to the general election after a sizable win in the New York primary last week, not even mentioning Democratic rival Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders once during her event.

At least he doesn’t have to steal the American people’s silverware.

“The last time I actually drove a car myself was 1996,” Clinton said at the National Automobile Dealers Association meeting in New Orleans. She then joked: “I remember it very well.”

He’s living well on his own, earned money.

She’s living on ours.

Go Donald!

Trump is everyman, that’s why he related to everyday people so well. Hillary is just a bitch no other word need apply.

Last time I looked, Trump EARNED his Money by Building Things, where Hillary got all hers through Graft, Bribes, and Corruption.

Casting Trump as out of touch is new and opens up Clinton — who regularly travels via private jet and has multiple homes — to criticism for her own lifestyle. She and husband Bill Clinton own sizable homes in Chappaqua, New York, and Washington, as well as a Manhattan apartment. They also use an apartment in Little Rock that is owned by Bill Clinton’s presidential library.

But she didn’t shy away from her criticism on Monday, mocking Trump — who has cast himself as a populist champion — for his lavish lifestyle.

“Don’t just fly that big jet in and land it and go give a big speech and insult everybody you can think of and then get on the big jet and go back to your country club house in Florida or your penthouse in New York,” Clinton said. “I somehow don’t think that puts you in touch with what is going on.”

Well we must remember they were flat out broke when they left the White House, which is why she felt it necessary to abscond with the silverware. /sarcasm

Trump earned his "lavish" life style, while Hillary "stole" her lavish life style.

That was easy.

She thinks this line of attack will go over?

Yeah, a woman of the people all right.

Then how come the Clintons got their own lavish life style? How about graft through their Foundation? Meanwhile, Trump has earned his money by real estate transactions.

It’s only one tower, Hillary. I guess given that you’re rarely in NY (as evidenced by your stupid behavior in the subway) unless it’s to collect cash, you wouldn’t know that. Or you were staring at a San Remo postcard.
