Philadelphia – Democratic vice presidential nominee U.S. Senator Tim Kaine laid into Republican candidate Donald Trump on Wednesday, describing the billionaire as “a one-man wrecking crew” who cannot be trusted with America’s future.

“Our nation, it is just too great to put it in the hands of a slick-talking, empty-promising, self-promoting, one-man wrecking crew,” Kaine said in a keynote speech to the Democratic Party convention in Philadelphia.
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton chose Kaine of Virginia, as her running mate last week, opting for a partner at the Nov. 8 election who has wide experience in public service to draw a contrast with Trump who has never been elected to office.
Peppering his speech with phrases in Spanish, the bilingual Kaine said he and Clinton were “companeros de alma,” or soul mates, and led chants from the crowd of “Si, se puede.” (“Yes, we can.”)
Kaine said Trump, a businessman and reality TV show host, was fundamentally untrustworthy.
“He never tells you how he’s going to do any of the things he says he’s going to do. He just says, ‘believe me.’ So here’s the question. Do you really believe him? Donald Trump’s whole career says you better not,” Kaine said.
Senior Democrats and former national security figures lined up in Philadelphia on Wednesday to describe Trump as unable to steer America through the dangerous waters of today’s world.
The Republican on Wednesday gave his critics fresh fodder for attack with remarks about Russia that the Clinton campaign said posed a possible national security threat.
Grabbing the spotlight at a news conference in Miami, Trump urged Russia to find and release tens of thousands of emails that Clinton did not hand over to U.S. officials as part of a probe into her use of a private email system while she was secretary of state. Clinton has said those emails were private.
I have a question for Tim Kaine.
You mentioned “belief”.
OK, fair enough. That is important.
Now, Hillary has lied under oath, as stated by James Comey head of FBI, multiple times in the email investigation.
What makes her believable?
“He never tells you how he’s going to do any of the things he says he’s going to do.”
Oh yes, so how will Hiliary defeat Isis? Any new ideas or just the same old? How is Hilary “going to do it”?
Here is how Trump will do it. Build an alliance with Russia.. Drop the Turkish NATO bumbs and back stabbers from our alliance. If Erdoegan dear attacks our kurdish freinds heaven help him. And together they build Syria with Assad the better of the two evils as its leader. (Assad is not a good choice but its better than ISIS)
Ok next , mybe one of you Hilary supports can tell me, how will Hiliary bring jobs back to the USA? By raising the minimum wage?
Here is how Trump would do it. Renegotiate TPP not abolish it rather renegotiate so that its on our terms. secondly, smarter immigration polices. And thirdly Trump is not so against raising the min wage either.
So who has the real policies? Trump or Hiliary? I say Trump. If you vote Hiliary please explain to me what her plan is to defeat Isis.
