Clinton to union in Detroit: Trump economics would 'bankrupt America'

DETROIT – Hillary Clinton says Donald Trump's economic policies are a "recipe" for lower wages, fewer jobs and more debt -- warning union members that he could "bankrupt America like he's bankrupted his companies."

The Democratic presidential candidate urged thousands of union workers gathered in Detroit Monday to ask: "How can anybody lose money running a casino, really?"

The presumptive Republican nominee's plan to deport millions of people living in the U.S. illegally also drew Clinton's ire.

She said Trump would send a "deportation force" to schools, workplaces and homes -- "ripping apart families."

Clinton spoke at the Service Employees International Union's international convention at Cobo Center. She said. child care workers, home health aides and others in the union are "unsung heroes" and their fight for higher wages "are my fights."

The SEIU is endorsing Clinton. 

Clinton was in Detroit this past month Detroit Branch NAACP's 61st annual Fight For Freedom Fund dinner, which also was at Cobo Center. She was the keynote speaker. 

"We can't be satisfied until all of Detroit's children are learning in good schools with good teachers in every classroom, and no crumbling ceilings or mold or rats scurrying across the floor," Clinton said.
