Democrats' promises have not come true
I just finished watching the last presidential debate. I learned that Hillary will "invest" in a lot of different things.
When I hear the word "invest" I hear tax and spend.
She also promised not to raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000. Where have I heard that before? (Obama) And with my measly income, I got a tax hike too.
Trump wants to lower taxes, which should increase economic activity. Trump wants to entice companies to move back with those lower tax rates and that will create jobs.
Hillary cannot get out of the mindset that government is the answer to everything. She wants to create jobs with a government jobs program. Trump wants to tap business expertise to help with trade deal negotiations.
Hillary thinks she is the genius who can run it all. Character counts - ask Trump's business associates - ask Hillary's secret service detail.
Trump has trouble expressing himself - sometimes crudely. Hillary expresses herself very well. She's a polished politician while Donald is a guy from New York with several successful businesses - a true outsider.
With all of the promises that did not come true from previous politicians, you decide.
