Quote	Clinton’s vision for rebuilding America’s middle class makes sense. Trump’s reversion to massive tax cuts benefiting his own businesses and the wealthy has never produced the trickle-down benefits promised. During the Reagan administration, the national debt soared. Clinton has promised real immigration reform – the kind a majority of Americans and pro-business Republicans favor, with better-enforced borders but also a path, not a free pass, to legal residency. Trump’s wall is an international embarrassment.
