Hillary Clinton was more than happy on Wednesday night to spend part of the final presidential debate comparing the things she has done over the past 30 years to what Donald Trump has accomplished.

Clinton told Trump she was glad to "compare my 30 years of experience, what I've done for this country, trying to help in every way I could, especially kids and families, get ahead and stay ahead, with your 30 years." Trump responded by saying he believes he's done "a much better job" over the past three decades than Clinton, having built a company with the "greatest assets anywhere in the world, worth many, many billions of dollars." If the U.S. was run the way Trump has operated his business, he said, "we would have a country you would be so proud of."
