Leading Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton has hit-out at Republican frontrunner Donald Trump saying he is dangerously unpredictable and not qualified to be president of the United States of America.

Clinton made the comments when she was pivoted to a general election match-up against Trump on Thursday after she was sure of taking out Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont for the Democratic nomination.

Clinton turned heavy fire on Trump, who has been running about even with her in national polls of voters looking ahead to the Nov. 8 presidential election.

Using the apparent downing of an EgyptAir plane from Paris to Cairo as an example while fielding question in an interview with CNN, Clinton said Trump would lack the skills to bring together U.S. allies to respond to global threats.

“I know how hard this job is and I know we need steadiness, as well as strength and smarts in it, and I have concluded that he is not qualified to be president of the United States,” Clinton said.
