Hillary Clinton Fillets Donald Trump


In the first of what is likely to be an ongoing barrage, Hillary Clinton blasted neo- fascist ignoramus Donald "Rump" Trump as "dangerous" and "temperamentally unfit" to be President, and his positions as "incoherent" in a major foreign policy speech in San Diego, CA, today.  Following President Obama's speech on economic progress yesterday, we're starting to see the potential potency of a Democratic assault on Rump. You can view the speech below (about 34 minutes) or read the transcript here.  We think one of the key passages in the speech hit the notion of Rump representing America in the most telling way:
And it also matters when he makes fun of disabled people, calls women pigs, proposes banning an entire religion from our country, or plays coy with white supremacists. America stands up to countries that treat women like animals, or people of different races, religions or ethnicities as less human. 
What happens to the moral example we set - for the world and for our own children - if our President engages in bigotry?
What, indeed.




BONUS: It's a good time to recall the neocon (mostly) foreign policy Republican bigwigs that blasted Rump in an open letter back in March. Actually, the harsh text of the letter is more fascinating than who signed it.
