Hillary Clinton has launched a fierce attack on Donald Trump, accusing her White House rival of pushing a “dangerously incoherent” foreign policy and having a temperament that risked involving the US in a nuclear war.
In her first major attack on the Republican presidential nominee, Mrs Clinton said that Mr Trump was not qualified to serve as commander-in-chief and that American voters could not afford to “roll the dice” by electing him in the November election. Speaking in San Diego, the former secretary of state called his ideas a “series of bizarre rants, personal feuds and outright lies”.
“He is temperamentally unfit to hold an office that requires knowledge, stability and immense responsibility,” she said. “This is not someone who should ever have the nuclear codes because it is not hard to imagine Donald Trump leading us into a war just because somebody got under his very thin skin.”
