Fiorina: ‘I Have More Foreign Policy Experience than Anyone on the Stage’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

HEMMER: “On issues, North Korea tested a long-range rocket over the weekend.”
FIORINA: “That’s right.” 
HEMMER: “If you were to be commander-in-chief why are you then better suited than the others that were on the stage Saturday night to handle with issues like this.”
FIORINA: “I have more foreign policy experience than anyone on that stage. I have met more world leaders. I’ve been in the world longer. I’ve held the highest clearances. I chaired advisory board of CIA, NSA of the advised two secretary of defense, a secretary of state and secretary of homeland security. I’ve been around the world a long time. I know our military and our intelligence capability. The first thing I would have done long ago is respond to provocation. This administration, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, they never respond. So when North Korea hacked into Sony pictures, I would have responded because when you don’t respond, when you are inviting is more provocation. And that is what we’re getting. I would have responded when Iran launched two ballistic missile tests. There was no response. When there is no response, when we do not lead, then our adversaries say, we might as well keep going. Mrs. Clinton famously asked, what difference four Americans dying in Benghazi makes? the difference is this when terrorists purposely attack an embassy, four Americans are murdered and secretary of state and stands up and lies about a videotape that doesn’t represent our values, instead of saying this was purposeful terrorist attack and we United States of America will seek retribution because, what she said was, to every adversary we have and every terrorist organization, open season on the United States of America. That is what difference it makes.”
