Hillary Clinton: Donald Trump is 'not qualified' to be president
Certainly Hillary Clinton doesn't agree with Donald Trump, but she took her opposition to the limit on Thursday when she declared he wasn't even qualified to be president during an interview with CNN. "The kinds of positions he is stating and the consequences of those positions and even the consequences of his statements are not just offensive to people, they are potentially dangerous," she said.
Clinton is already looking past the Democratic convention to square up against the presumptive Republican nominee, having said with confidence she will represent her party — "that is already done."
