Donald Trump tears into Hillary Clinton during attack speech
Donald Trump tore into Hillary Clinton for being greedy as well as "volcanic and impulsive" in a speech Wednesday from his New York SoHo hotel. "[Clinton's] campaign slogan is 'I'm with Her.' You know what my response to that is? 'I'm with you, the American people,'" Trump said:
In addition to her decisions in Libya, Trump accused Clinton of making secrets vulnerable to America's enemies by using a private server while in office. "While we may not know what is in those deleted emails, our enemies probably do. So they probably now have a blackmail file over someone who wants to be president of the United States. This fact alone disqualifies her from the presidency," he said.

Trump also painted Clinton as getting "rich [while] making you poor," claiming she "ran the State Department like her own personal hedge fund." He slammed her for giving speeches "to lobbyists, CEOs, and foreign governments."
"They totally own her, and that will never, ever, change," Trump said, "including if she became president. God help us."
