Moments ago, former Secretary of State John Kerry concluded his appearance on day 2 of the DNC.
Kerry said “Donald Trump inherited a growing economy and a more peaceful world and, like everything else he inherited, he bankrupted it. When this president goes overseas, it isn’t a goodwill mission, it’s a blooper reel.”

Kerry also claimed “Donald Trump pretends Russia didn’t attack our elections. And now, he does nothing about Russia putting a bounty on our troops. So he won’t defend our country. He doesn’t know how to defend our troops. The only person he’s interested in defending is himself.”
Trump supporters fired back at Kerry on Twitter.
GOP Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel wrote
“John Kerry epitomizes WEAK foreign policy.
He even thanked Iran for capturing our sailors.
Thanks to @realDonaldTrump, the days of Obama-Biden’s failed foreign policy are over!”
