Clinton FINALLY disavows Orlando massacre gunman's father's support as Rudy Giuliani asks:
Daily Mail (U.K.) ^ | 8/10/2016 | David Martosko, US Political Editor and Nikki Schwab, U.s. Political Reporter and Wills Robinson Fo

After a long day of outrage from Republicans, Hillary Clinton's campaign finally disavowed on Tuesday night the support of Orlando nightclub shooter Omar Mateen's father, who sat behind her at a Kissimmee, Florida rally Monday and said he was a supporter.

Seddique Mateen, whose son Omar killed 49 people at Pulse nightclub on June 12, was seen grinning as he watched the Democratic presidential nominee speak from the area behind the podium usually reserved for VIPs.

The Clinton campaign had ignored requests for comment, and the Democratic presidential nominee was seen ignoring a reporter's question on the matter at a campaign stop in Miami.

Donald Trump's criticism added pressure, with the Republican nominee telling Fox News host Sean Hannity on Tuesday evening: 'She did not disavow [him]. If that were me, this would be a headline all over.'

And Rudy Giuliani, the Trump-supporting former New York City mayor, clobbered Clinton for sending signals that attracted Mateen to her banner.

'Why is he such an avid supporter? What is drawing him to Hillary Clinton?' Giuliani asked Wednesday on ABC's 'Good Morning America.'

'I believe it's her soft stance on Islamic extremist terrorism.'

She probably wasn’t even aware that creep was sitting behind her.

I don’t think his placement directly behind her was accidental. I think they placed him there, hoping to cause Trump to overreact and attack all Muslims?

Can we now always say that it took Hillary three days to disavow the radical anti gay Taliban father of the worst mass murderer in US history?

And we know she didn’t mean it.

Because Hillary Clinton REFUSES to talk to the press..unless they give her the questions in advance..if this had been Trump they would have asked him TWENTY TIMES to disavow this man and have on 7 pundits vs 1 Trump supporter who say that Trump is an anti semite bigot who allowed a Jihadist into his campaign rally to sit courtside

The guy seems to be loving life, seeing as his jihad son did his martyrdom for Allah etc.

I was watching FBN and they showed a clip of her totally ignoring press questioning.

Sorry “disavowing” the fact that you are supported by Islamic supremacists doesn’t mean that you aren’t supported by Islamic supremacists. Especially not when you invite them to your events, invite them to tell lies and shake their finger at me at your events, take astounding large campaign contributions from them and have them as aides.

Who are you trying to kid? Hillary Rotten Criminal runs her campaign like Himmler ran the SS. She knows everything going on, or her handlers do and report to her.

Her “campaign” will change that “finally” to “’ALWAYS’ disavowed” the next time she talks about it.

Since Daily Mail has started “Fixing’ their ‘best rated’ pages with thousands of phony arrows, I no longer visit their site.
