Clinton casts Trump as unfit to lead military
By Jonathan Easley
Hillary Clinton cast Donald Trump as unqualified for the role of commander in chief in a speech to a veterans group on Wednesday meant to draw a contrast in leadership with the Republican presidential nominee, who is traveling abroad.
Speaking at the American Legion's national convention in Cincinnati, Ohio, Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, described Trump as erratic, dangerous and a threat to U.S. security.
Throughout the 40-minute speech, Clinton never once mentioned Trump by name, even as she warned that he would bring only “name-calling and temper tantrums to Washington.”
Instead, Clinton referred to Trump as her “opponent,” or nodded to his past controversial remarks by pledging to never “disrespect” Gold Star families or former prisoners of war.
