Hillary Clinton replied to Donald Trump’s economic address on Monday by saying it would benefit rich corporations and the wealthiest Americans at the expense of the working class. She’s promising to raise taxes on the wealthy because, she says, “that’s where the money is.”

Clinton says his scripted speech amounts to Trump scrambling to do “damage control” and the steadier performance was designed to reassure Republicans who had grown nervous after a disastrous week.
