Hillary Clinton has made bad judgment not only on taxes. She's made bad judgments on Libya, on Syria, on Iraq.

They started from that little area, and now they're in 32 different nations, Hillary. Congratulations. Great job.

So if you want to live longer, have a really interesting life.
When I declared my candidacy, I knew what bad shape America was in. And believe me all you have to do is look at world events.
