Donald Trump Says Hillary Clinton Demonstrated ‘Bad Judgment’
Over the holiday weekend, Donald Trump said he had inside information that Hillary Clinton wouldn’t be recommended for criminal prosecution by the FBI. And, after his comments proved true, he hasn’t let up in his criticism of his Democrat counterpart.
“The FBI Director laid out today a detailed case of how Hillary Clinton compromised the safety of the American people by storing highly classified information on a private email server with no security,” he said Tuesday afternoon. “He confirmed that her email could easily have been hacked by hostile actors, and confirmed that those she emailed with were hacked.
“Our adversaries almost certainly have a blackmail file on Hillary Clinton, and this fact alone disqualifies her from service.”
Trump also noted FBI Director James Comey revealed that Clinton lied when she said that she did not send classified information, and that in fact 110 emails were deemed classified at the time they were sent. These emails included information classified as “top secret.”
“On top of it all, Hillary Clinton’s lawyers wiped the servers clean to delete another 30,000 emails—hiding her corrupt dealings from investigators,” he said. “She used the State Department for her personal gain, trading favors for cash, and tried to conceal the records. Also, she didn’t want people to know the details about her botched decisions in Libya, Syria, Iraq and Egypt that destabilized the Middle East.”
Trump said, however, the system is “rigged” to hold the American people to one standard and “people like Hillary Clinton to another.” As a result, she won’t face “the criminal charges that she deserves.”
“Bill Clinton didn’t accidentally run into the Attorney General on the airport tarmac last week in Phoenix,” he said. “Hillary Clinton didn’t accidentally sneak into the FBI during one of the country’s biggest holiday weekends to testify on her illegal activities, something that wouldn’t be afforded to others under investigation, and on a Saturday of all days. It was no accident that charges were not recommended against Hillary the exact same day as President Obama campaigns with her for the first time.”
Trump said the “normal punishment” for violations such as Clinton’s would include permanently losing the authority to handle any kind of classified material. That, too, disqualifies her from serving as president, he added.
“The final jury will be the American people,” he said. “They will issue the verdict on her corruption, incompetence and bad judgment on November 8.”
