[VIDEO IN EXTENDED ARTICLE]
Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) released a video early Friday morning explaining why he could not support Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
“It’s not just that [Clinton] supported the Iran Deal, but she takes great pride in being the architect” Assemblyman Hikind explained in the video. “She wants all of the credit in the world for this disastrous deal that supports Iran and its terrorist activities. Well Hillary, you get all the credit, and you are disqualified to me as a candidate because that is a horrible, disastrous deal for the world.”
Hikind then transitioned to Clinton’s resume, in particular, suggesting there wasn’t one area, during her tenure as Secretary of State, where she was successful.
“If you look at the situation with Gaddafi in Libya, that was a failure. If you look at the situation in Syria, you’re going to reset the button with the leader of Syria. Hillary called him a reformer! Now there are 400,000 civilians dead. You look at all of these examples, where is the success? Where have you been successful as Secretary of State.”
One thing I will give you credit for, directing his message toward Clinton, is your accumulated mileage traveling all over the world. In fact, I think you have the best record of any Secretary of State in terms of mileage accumulation. And your relationship with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu? You are the official ‘yeller’ at Netanyahu, and you said it yourself on CNN. Is that why we should support you? Is that why we should vote for you? I can’t find one area where you were successful as Secretary of State.”
Hikind added: “Hillary Clinton getting elected as President of the United States also guarantees a radical leftist court, not an equally balanced one. That’s not what I want for my family, my community or for the American people. Hillary has been a failure. If you want another four years of the Obama administration, then your choice is a simple one. But if you recognize the dangerous situations that exist in the world, then Hillary Clinton is not an option. We need change. Sorry Hillary, you’re fired.”

Hikind, your fired!
Get busy!!
You are FIRED
Hikind’s logic makes no sense.
Would he prefer Donald Trump who refused to strongly condemn the antisemitism of his supporters when they send anti-semetic messages to journalists critical of him?
Does he prefer Donald Trump who took about a day to distance himself from David Duke’s endorsement?
Would he prefer Donald Trump who actively courts the alt-right and gives their representatives senior positions in his campaign?
Does he prefer Donald Trump who said he would remain neutral on Israel?
Would he prefer Donald Trump whop mocked and stereotyped Jews at a RJC meeting?
Does he prefer Donald Trump who sings the praises of Vladimir Putin who supports Assad/Hizbullah/Iran in Syria and has sold missiles to Iran?
Does all this mean nothing to Dov Hikind?
To crazykanoiy,
I read your comment above. You really are crazy!
crazyK- are you a democrat kanoiy or just crazy? It certainly doesn’t seem that you’re a kanoiy for anything related to yiddishkeit. Why these attempts to be mikarev people to Clinton – she’s a lying, conniving, criminal sonei yisroel, sonei E”Y, and while Trump is not ideal, we feel safer with him despite your list of irrelevant and untrue insinuations. Kanoiy – you go speak to your daas Torah and we’ll go speak to ours – Leiv milachim v’sarim biyad Hashem.
Great job, Dov.
This took guts because of the usual entrenched establishment mosdos & “leaders” are ga-ga for Hillary.
Now let’s see you clearly come out for Trump, not the ideal but the best one out there.
The clean speaking Non-Menuval Obama has for 7 years worked on the destruction of the USA as we know it, and this Lady MacBeth will only continue this madness .
Anyway: What’s an Aleppo ????
Some candidates, huh?
Drugcommish and dbrim – Your response is typical of Trump supporters. Resort to name calling and hyperbole and ignore the reality and facts. Trump won a primary with name calling and ranting it is sad that so many of his followers just do the same.
Zion Gate – If what is Aleppo disqualifies Gary Johnson then what about Trump’s what is Brexit, what is nuclear triad, who is David Duke and Putin is not in Crimea?
#7,
Please read my last line again, I meant them all.
You mean the DEM name calling of Trump?
Like:
Racist, misogynist, anti-Semite, Islamophobic, Xenophobic?
He already disavowed Duke, how many more times should he mention him?
Let’s see if Deplorable Hill-Billy denounces the racist, anti-white, anti-Semitic Black Lives Matter? Or the BDS movement. I’m not holding my breath. The”Foundation” keeps collecting from Quatar, Saudis, etc, who brutalize women. Never calls Isis by name even if they throw people off buildings and execute them by throwing them into vats of boiling tar.
Gimme a break.
