Related: About this forumHillary Clinton Goes After Donald Trump’s Taxes in Ohio Campaign Stop
Hillary Clinton railed against Donald Trumps financial practices in Toledo, Ohio, as she sought to undercut his populist appeal in a state where polls show the race nearly tied.
The Democratic nominee focused on the news that Trump lost $916 million in a single year, according to tax records obtained by the New York Times, charging that they undermine his campaign message.
Trump represents the same rigged system he claims he will change, Clinton said. While millions of American families were working hard and paying their fair share, it seems Trump wasnt contributing anything to our nation.
<snip>
The message connected with at least one voter in the crowd.
I believe that based on her path as someone whos not from wealth that she has been misled by wealth, said Jennifer Harvey, a former librarian from Bowling Green who pointed to Clintons time on Walmarts board and her paid speeches. But I think shes learned from her past mistakes and that she will be more progressive in the future. - Time

this hurts him.. i read another article about toledo's blue collar voters souring on Trump after this tax thing.. we need to bury him.. he is trying to explain his way out of it now as we speak.. i hope he doesnt regain from this.. we must defeat him soundly.. i am a little worried about the next two debates and the wikileaks.. I think HRC is prepared to win this!

...and I had an opponent who boasted about not paying taxes, I'd release a sum total of every tax dollar I'd ever paid in my entire life. Maybe in a tweet, with the text "I'm just gonna leave this right here..." with a link to a clear and concise view of tax dollars paid by year.
