Fresh off her win in Arizona, Hillary Clinton told supporters in Seattle that the "stakes get higher by the day," and the attacks in Brussels remind Americans that we "live in a complex and dangerous world, and we need a commander-in-chief who can provide leadership that is strong, smart, and above all steady in taking on these threats."
The United States does not need leaders who "incite more fear in the face of terror," Clinton said. "America doesn't panic," she continued. "We don't build walls or turn our backs on our allies. We can't throw out everything we know about what works and what doesn't, and start torturing people. What Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and others are suggesting is not only wrong, it's dangerous." This year's election is "consequential," she said, and her campaign is "about both growing and sharing the promise of America."
