Hillary Clinton is doing what Republican rivals now say they took far too long to do: Taking Donald Trump seriously.
In interviews and foreign policy addresses this week, the Democratic front-runner has worked to undercut Trumps credentials in the wake of deadly bombings in Brussels. Her goal is to transform the voters vision of the bombastic reality TV star into a potential commander in chief with his finger on a nuclear trigger an image her team believes will repel voters in November.
Clinton is casting herself as a calm harbor in a stormy world, frequently mentioning the need for steady hands. The comment is a clear reference to Trump with the implication he'd never fill that need.

Yeah, Hillary. You did a great job helping to arm and fund them while you were Obama’s Secretary of State.
Now you’re promising to fight them? When pigs fly.

I am sure she will do as good a job protecting Americans at home as she did protecting Americans in a Foreign Embassy.

And I’m sure the TV show ‘Madam Secretary’ will be happy to corroborate any lies she tells on the campaign trail.

I watched her speech today, she droned her way through it
in the same bland monotone. Obviously coached to not
screech or get excited. She had the skin of a 20 year old.
They must have dipped her face in botox, no wrinkles, no
bags under the eyes. I knew we would actually see her get
younger as the campaign went on and I was right.

I thought Hussein’s re-election put us in bizzaro world. I was wrong. Hillary Clinton as a potential C in C puts us, truly, in bizzaro world..
