Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus Wednesday ripped Hillary Clinton's foreign policy speech to veterans in Cincinnati, saying that the Democrat was "only promising more of the failed approach that has created new Jihadist hotspots around the world."
"Whether it’s her reckless mishandling of classified information on an illicit server, her failed policies as secretary of state which enabled the growth of ISIS, lying to the families of Benghazi victims, or dismissing the VA scandals as being overblown, Hillary Clinton has proven she lacks the judgment to be commander-in-chief," Priebus said.
Clinton told the American Legion's annual convention that "we can't cozy up to dictators, we have to stand up to them.
"We can't contain ISIS, we must defeat them and we will," she said.
The former secretary of state also promised to invest in the nation's military and support veterans, pledging not to privatize the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
"We cannot afford any more of the disastrous policies which compromised our security and that of our allies, but that is exactly what Hillary Clinton is promising," Priebus said.
"Donald Trump and Mike Pence are prepared to bring strong leadership into the White House and make the safety of every American at home and abroad their number one priority."
