		</div><p>Hillary Clinton has sought to undercut Donald Trump&#8217;s appeal to working-class voters, claiming her Republican rival is untrustworthy on economic issues and pushes policies that would only benefit the super-wealthy &#8211; himself included.</p>
<p>The Democratic presidential nominee, who frequently boasts about her numerous policy plans, did not offer any new ideas to improve the country&#8217;s economy in her afternoon address.</p>
<p>Instead, she contrasted a more optimistic view of the country&#8217;s economy with what she called &#8220;outlandish Trumpian ideas&#8221; that have been rejected by both parties.</p>
<p>&#8220;Based on what we know from the Trump campaign, he wants America to work for him and his friends, at the expense of everyone else,&#8221; she said at a manufacturing company in Michigan.</p>
<p>Mrs Clinton tried to seize the opportunity to win back some of the blue collar voters who have supported her rival, making the case that she offers a steadier roadmap for economic growth and prosperity.</p>
<p>&#8220;I can provide serious, steady leadership that can find common ground and build on it based on hard but respectful bargaining,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>&#8220;I just don&#8217;t think insults and bullying is how we&#8217;re going to get things done.&#8221;</p>
<p>She also reiterated her strong opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal, leaving herself little room for backtracking should she win the White House if it is taken up by the lame-duck Congress later this year.</p>
<p>&#8220;I oppose it now, I&#8217;ll oppose it after the election, and I&#8217;ll oppose it as president,&#8221; she said, while also noting that the US should not cut itself off from the rest of the world.</p>
<p>Mrs Clinton once called the TPP the &#8220;gold standard&#8221; of trade deals when she served as Barack Obama&#8217;s secretary of state but announced her opposition to the deal last year, saying it did not meet her standard for creating jobs, raising wages and protecting national security.</p>
<p>Eric Hernandez, 45, a union crane operator from Davison, Michigan, said he had been on the fence about Mrs Clinton, but the speech impressed him.</p>
<p>&#8220;The down-to-earth talk she used today I really liked,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If she implemented all the things she said, I&#8217;d be ecstatic.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mrs Clinton is also planning to release her 2015 tax returns in the coming days, as she seeks to keep the pressure on Mr Trump, who has not provided his.</p>
<p>Mr Trump has said he will not release them until an Internal Revenue Service audit is complete.</p>
<p>A source close to Mrs Clinton said she would soon release the return, supplementing the decades of returns she and her husband have already made public.</p>
<p>Her running mate, Senator Tim Kaine, and his wife will also release the past 10 years of their returns.</p>
<p>Her appearance follows Mr Trump&#8217;s own speech on the economy, which he also delivered in Michigan on Monday.</p>
<p>However, his remarks were quickly eclipsed by the latest in a series of controversial statements which Mr Trump has spent much of the past two weeks trying to clarify.</p>
<p>Just hours before Mrs Clinton&#8217;s address, Mr Trump unleashed another round of attacks on Mr Obama &#8211; calling him the &#8220;founder&#8221; of Islamic State &#8211; and Mrs Clinton, its &#8220;co-founder&#8221;.</p>
<p>Mr Trump said this week he wants to cut taxes for businesses and workers, and go with a three-bracket income tax system that is close to what House Republicans have recommended.</p>
<p>With few exceptions, Mr Trump has provided more of a philosophical basis for an economic plan than specifics, although he did call for greater child care deductions for families.</p>
<p>At an appearance in Miami Beach, Florida, hours before Mrs Clinton&#8217;s speech, he said his rival &#8220;wants to tax and regulate our economy to death&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;If you were a foreign power looking to weaken America, you couldn&#8217;t ask for anything better than Hillary Clinton as your president,&#8221; he said, addressing a group of home builders.</p>
<p>Both candidates chose tightly contested Michigan &#8211; specifically, the Detroit area &#8211; to make their updated economic pitches.</p>
<p>The former manufacturing powerhouse has been hard hit by the decline of the automobile industry and the real estate market.</p>
<p>Mr Trump has struggled to keep the focus on his economic proposal week after fresh controversy with his comments about the Second Amendment.</p>
<p>At a rally on Tuesday, Mr Trump falsely said his Democratic rival wanted to revoke the right to gun ownership.</p>
<p>He then said there was no way people would be able to stop a President Clinton from stacking the Supreme Court with anti-gun justices, before adding: &#8220;Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is &#8211; I don&#8217;t know.&#8221;</p>
<p>Democrats said such comments were further evidence that Mr Trump was undisciplined and unprepared for the presidency.</p>
<p>Mr Trump insisted he was never advocating violence against Mrs Clinton.</p>
