Trump denies he said not paying taxes was smart an hour after he said it on the debate stage.
Clinton: Or maybe he doesn’t want the American people, all of you watching tonight, to know that he’s paid nothing in federal taxes, because the only years that anybody’s ever seen were a couple of years when he had to turn them over to state authorities when he was trying to get a casino license, and they showed he didn’t pay any federal income tax.
Trump: That makes me smart.
Clinton: So if he’s paid zero, that means zero for troops, zero for vets, zero for schools or health. And I think probably he’s not all that enthusiastic about having the rest of our country see what the real reasons are, because it must be something really important, even terrible, that he’s trying to hide.

Bash: It sounds like you admitted that you hadn’t paid federal taxes, and that that was smart. Is that what you meant to say?
Trump: No, I didn’t say that at all. If they say I didn’t, it doesn’t matter.”
