Many
prominent Republican Party war hawks are publicly endorsing Hillary
Clinton because she is the most war mongering of all the US
presidential candidates, an American political analyst and activist
says.
Myles
Hoenig, a Green Party candidate for Congress, made the remarks in a
phone interview with Press TV on Wednesday, following the release of
the Quinnipiac University poll which shows Clinton has a slender
national lead over Trump in the race for the White House.
“Although
polls can show trends, often they are more of a snapshot at the
moment in how people feel. It’s not surprising that Clinton leads
Trump at this point but that it’s by only 2 points is interesting.
Trump has had a lousy week and Clinton, on the other hand, has not
had a lot of Sanders’ attacks to diminish her in the eyes of the
general public,” Hoenig said.
“Recent
reports are out that Trump never expected to win and that he was
hoping for coming in second as a protest candidate. Many dignitaries
in the Republican Party are deserting him and notable Republican war
hawks are publicly endorsing Clinton. That’s not surprising as she
is the most war mongering of all the candidates out there during this
election cycle,” he added.
“Trump
has also been showing how inept he is when it comes to understanding
world politics and is being openly ridiculed for it. Just look at his
praise of Scotland voting to leave the European Union, when in fact,
they strongly supported remaining. The colorful tweets attacking him
have done nothing to lend any credibility to him,” the activist
stated.
