Hillary Clinton laid out “ambitious new goals” on the economy in a speech Wednesday in Raleigh, North Carolina. Clinton also spoke to her supporters in Columbus, Ohio, in which she said Donald Trump would lead the country in a recession.
Clinton said in a preview of her North Carolina speech that she would work with both parties to develop good-paying jobs in infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, clean energy and small business.
She said she will tackle “the twin problems” of college affordability and student debt and ensure Wall Street and the wealthy pay their fair share in taxes.
Meanwhile, Trump said Clinton is a failed secretary of state who is out of step with Americans on trade and immigration.
Trump addressed Wednesday morning at his hotel in New York’s SoHo neighborhood, marking his official opening salvo against Clinton, the prospective Democratic presidential nominee, in the general election. It comes as Trump faces growing questions about his readiness not just for the presidency, but for the campaign he will need to run to get there.
The Trump campaign is hoping the speech can quiet those concerns and rally Republicans around their shared opposition to Clinton. The billionaire plans to focus in particular on Clinton’s tenure at the State Department, arguing that her foreign policy is in part responsible for the creation of the Daesh terror group.
On Monday, Trump fired his campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, hours before a new fundraising report showed that the billionaire’s campaign had just $1.3 million in the bank at the start of June.
