Endorsements that matter You’ll remember Seddique Mateen as the father of the terrorist who slaughtered 49 innocent victims in the Orlando nightclub attack. He’s an all-around “swell guy” who hosted an anti-American YouTube talk show and proudly supported the Taliban. In case there was any doubt about who he’d be backing in the 2016 election, he wants to make sure you know that he’s supporting Hillary Clinton - a woman he says “is good for United States.”
