Hillary Clinton throws a jab at Donald Trump
In one of the most savage speeches of her political career so
far, Hillary Clinton, yesterday, threw away the diplomatic
tactics that has characterized her previous press addresses
and went straight for the jugular, unleashing a series of biting
attacks on presumptive Republican Presidential nominee
Donald Trump.
Clinton warned that Trump should not be let anywhere near
the nuclear codes because he could start a war when
somebody "got under his very thin skin."
"He's not just unprepared -- he's temperamentally unfit to hold
an office that requires knowledge, stability and immense
responsibility,"
Clinton said during her speech on National Security in San
Diego, California.
She lambasted his "bragging" approach to foreign policy based
on a string of "nasty tweets" and accused him of harboring a
"bizarre" closeness with authoritarian leaders like Russian
President Vladimir Putin, the Communist rulers of China and
North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un.
"We cannot put the safety of our children and grandchildren in
Donald Trump's hands. We cannot let him roll the dice with
America,"
"He says he has foreign policy experience because he ran the
Miss Universe pageant in Russia," Clinton said. "The stakes in
global statecraft are infinitely higher and more complex than
in the world of luxury hotels."
"I will leave it to the psychiatrists to explain his attraction to
tyrants"
"You know, there's no risk of people losing their lives if you
blow up a golf-course deal," she said. "But it doesn't work like
that in world affairs."
"He also says, 'I know more about ISIS than the generals do,
believe me.' You know what? I don't believe him,"
"This is a man who said that more countries should have
nuclear weapons, including Saudi Arabia. This is someone
who has threatened to abandon our allies in NATO, the
countries that work with us to root out terrorists abroad
before they strike us at home,"
"He believes we can treat the U.S. economy like one of his
casinos and default on our debts to the rest of the world,
which would cause an economic catastrophe far worse than
anything we experienced in 2008," she continued.
"He has said that he would order our military to carry out
torture."
"Imagine Donald Trump sitting in the Situation Room, making
life-or-death decisions on behalf of the United States.
Imagine him deciding whether to send your spouses or
children into battle. Imagine if he had not just his Twitter
account at his disposal when he's angry, but America's entire
arsenal," she said.
"Do we want him making those calls -- someone thin-skinned
and quick to anger, who lashes out at the smallest criticism?"
she asked rhetorically. "Do we want his finger anywhere near
the button?"
