Choice at stake this election - Fearful America vs. Confident America
First Lady, SoS, Senator experience with America and her safety always first at heart
The candidate Republicans have elected CANNOT DO THE JOB
Not just different - DANGEROUSLY INCOHERENT, not even really ideas (nervous laughter from crowd), just a series of bizzare rants, personal feuds and outright lies (more laughter and CHEERS from crowd).
GO HILL!
Not just unprepared, temperamentally UNFIT. Should NEVER have nuke codes, may hit button because someone got UNDER HIS VERY THIN SKIN.
Wants to give nukes to more countries, abandon allies, treat our debt like his casinos.
Wants to kill families and commit war crimes.
Doesn't have to listen to generals because he says he has quote "a very GOOD BRAIN."
Says "I know more about ISIS than the generals do.
Says global warming is a Chinese hoax.
Picks fight with our friends, UK, Germany, Mexico, THE POPE
Says he has foreign policy because Miss Universe pageant was in Russia
Says America is 3rd world country.
Donald Trump says these things because he doesn't know America, doesn't deserve to lead it. Unlike him I have experience. Short list of her many, many awesome accomplishments.
CROWD GOES WILD
I have sat in the situation room. Not new to this work. Choice is CLEAR.
America is exceptional, like Lincoln's words "The Last, Best Hope of Earth" we must not shrink away and leave a vacuum.
1st must be STRONG AT HOME. Infrastructure, income inequality, break down barriers to health and education including bigotry.
2nd Must stick with allies! We need allies to maintain strength against countries like North Korea. Explains concept of working with allies and benefits. Moscow and Beijing would love to have US elect President who would weaken our standing by abandoning allies.
3rd Need to embrace ALL tools of power including DIPLOMACY. Takes patience, and time. (read here intelligence and attention span he he) Must keep all options on the table, military action only if necessary, talk is better.
Donald Trump doesn't know the first thing about Iran: ASK HIM, it'll become clear!
No risk of people losing their lives if you blow up a golf course deal! (LAUGHTER) It does't work like that in world affairs.
Just being on the same episode of 60 minutes with Putin is not the same thing as dealing with Putin
Donald's tools he brings to the table are bragging, mocking, composing nasty Tweets! I bet he's composing some right now! (LOUD LAUGHTER)
What is Donald's affection and fascination with strongmen/tyrants? Recounted NK leader's execution of uncle like it was an action movie, said you had to admire the Kim family takeover of NK, gave Putin an "A" as a leader. Said maybe Syria should be given to ISIS as a "free zone."
America deserves better. Those who serve our country and put their lives on the line in uniform deserve better.
Donald Trump took out full page ads in 1987 saying "the world was laughing at us" He's not fit, why would he want to be a leader of a place he thinks so little of?
Matters when he says he would order the commission of war crimes. US soldiers sheltered women and children when going after OBL. That's what honor looks like.
It matters when he makes fun of the disabled, calls women pigs, proposes banning entire religion and plays COY with WHITE SUPREMACISTS.
What do we say to the world/our children if leader is a bigot? Immigrants, Muslims, fight and SERVE in our armed forces. DT could learn something from them.
Temperment: Big decisions made with imperfect and incomplete information. That's the job. Need open mind, HUMILITY. If you're convinced you're ALWAYS RIGHT you will make the wrong decisions. Recalls night in situation room with PBO, the mission to take down OBL. Troop lives depended on them. Try to imagine Trump in that chair.
Donald Trump's got America ALL WRONG. We ARE stronger together. Two visions ahead of us:
One vision of America is angry, afraid and BASED on the idea the America is weak, and in decline
Other vision is hopeful, generous, and confident that America IS great - talks about going to 112 countries and never failing to be amazed by the sight of AF1 lit up on the runway with the seal of the United States on the side.

I think she was tearing up a bit when talking about her love of country.
SHE BLEW THIS THING RIGHT OUT OF THE DAMN PARK !!!!!
