Hillary Clinton: Donald Trump not qualified to be president | CNN Video at Link
(CNN)Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton criticized presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Thursday, saying his recent behavior shows he's not qualified to president.
"When you run for president of the United States, the entire world is listening and watching," Clinton told CNN's Chris Cuomo during an exclusive interview in Chicago. "So when you say you're going to bar all Muslims, you're sending evidence to the Muslim world, and you're also sending a message to terrorist ... Donald Trump is essentially being used as a recruiter for more people to join the cause of terrorism."
She added, "Based on the way he has behaved and how he has spoken and the policies he has ... thrown out there, I think it adds up to a very troubling picture."
Clinton also addressed the disappearance of EgyptAir Flight 804, saying the disaster "shines a very bright light on the threat that we face from organized terror groups."
"It reinforces the need for American leadership -- the kind of hard, steady leadership that only America can provide," Clinton said.

AND From TPM:
“Based on the way he has behaved and how he has spoken and the policies he has literally thrown out there, I think it adds up to a very troubling picture,” Clinton told CNN’s Chris Cuomo in an extended sit-down interview that aired Thursday.
The former secretary of state reserved particularly scathing criticism for Trump’s proposed temporary ban on Muslim immigration, advocacy for nuclear proliferation and suggestion that he would meet with North Korea’s authoritarian leader Kim Jung Un.
“When you run for president of the United States, the entire world is listening and watching,” Clinton said. “So when you say, we're going to bar all Muslims, you are sending a message to the Muslim world and you're also sending a message to the terrorists because we now do have evidence, we have seen how Donald Trump is being used to essentially be a recruiter for more people to join the cause of terrorism."

And Sanders, for that matter.
More importantly, she will be the nominee.
Enjoyed the interview!
