Donald Trump’s response to Hillary Clinton’s charge that he wasn’t qualified to be president? Right back at you.
Trump kicked off Friday<span style="color: Red;">*</span>with a series of tweets using his favorite nickname (“Crooked Hillary”) and questioning her qualifications.
Trump and members of his campaign —<span style="color: Red;">*</span>in an apparent attempt to divide the Democratic Party —<span style="color: Red;">*</span>have started to use questions Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders had asked over<span style="color: Red;">*</span>Clinton's qualifications.<span style="color: Red;">*</span>This is a strange Trump-Sanders team-up — which Sanders has said really is not benefiting him.
I said that Crooked Hillary Clinton is "not qualified" to be president because she has "very bad judgement" - Bernie said the same thing!

Crooked Hillary has zero imagination and even less stamina. ISIS, China, Russia and all would love for her to be president. 4 more years!

Look where the world is today, a total mess, and ISIS is still running around wild. I can fix it fast, Hillary has no chance!

Crooked Hillary Clinton looks presidential? I don't think so! Four more years of Obama and our country will never come back. ISIS LAUGHS!

Crooked Hillary can't even close the deal with Bernie - and the Dems have it rigged in favor of Hillary. Four more years of this? No way!

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe,<span style="color: Red;">*</span>Trump said his early-morning Twitter rant was in response to Clinton’s comments.
“It's sort of interesting because I talk about Hillary's bad judgment.<span style="color: Red;">*</span>I actually said that this morning to a lot of followers.<span style="color: Red;">*</span>And a lot of people that agree with me,” Trump said.<span style="color: Red;">*</span>“But she's got horrible judgment.”
“What’s the worst example of her, you say she has horrible judgment?” host Joe Scarborough asked.
“Well, I could tell you a lot of examples, but one of them is Libya,” Trump said. Later in the show he said he would have stayed out of Libya — which isn’t exactly true.
Trump also said during the interview that he had no qualms about calling the missing Egypt Air plane a terrorist attack first thing Thursday morning — long before authorities had broached the topic.
Host Mika Brzezinski said that some people may call it a rash tweet and that it “was very much generating hatred, focusing on the hatred and fear that terrorism brings to the American people.<span style="color: Red;">*</span> And maybe perhaps that first tweet ...” she started.
Trump jumped in: “Well, you feel that way, but I — I said another plane was blown up and I can practically guarantee who blew it up.<span style="color: Red;">*</span>And another plane went down.”
“And let me tell you,<span style="color: Red;">*</span>the mindset of a weak Hillary Clinton, which is four more years of Obama, is not going to do it for our country,” he added.
Trump also said that he despite comments earlier this week that he and the British prime minister may not “have a good relations,” things would be just fine. In fact, David Cameron invited him to come visit and he just “might do it.”
