Trump strikes back at Clinton’s ‘phony’ speech
Republican presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump lashed out at Hillary Clinton after her “phony” foreign policy speech Thursday, continuing to hit her hard over her private email scandal.
“Remember I said I’m a counter-puncher? I am. After what she said about me today in her phony speech — that was a phony speech, that was a Donald Trump hit job — I will say this: Hillary Clinton has to go to jail,” he said at a rally in San Jose, Calif., Thursday night.
{mosads}Trump accused Clinton, the former secretary of State turned presidential hopeful, of supporting the Iran nuclear deal because she doesn’t want to go to jail over the email issue.
“Anything Obama wants, she’s going forward with, because you know why? She doesn’t want to go to jail,” he said.
Trump noted the intense animosities between Barack Obama and the Clintons in the 2008 Democratic primary, saying they “hated” each other.
“The only reason she’s behaving like this, and the only reason she’s been dragged so far left, believe me, is she doesn’t want to go to jail over the emails,” he said.
“Folks, honestly, she’s guilty as hell,” Trump added. “The fact that they even allow her to participate in this race is a disgrace to the United States, it’s a disgrace to our nation.”
