Donald Trump is a risk that the US cannot afford as he has “for years proven himself to be a loose cannon”, the rival Clinton Campaign said, as it launched a blistering attack on the outspoken presumptive Republican presidential nominee.

Referring to Mr Trump’s statements on a series of issues including foreign policy and national security, Clinton Campaign chairperson John Podesta slammed Mr Trump, saying that the 69-year-ol real-estate tycoon is “a risk that we can’t afford”.

In this week alone, Mr Trump has jeopardised relations with a close ally before setting foot overseas, talked about building a relationship with a reckless dictator, and called two diverse American cities more dangerous than war zones like Iraq, Mr Podesta said.

He said Mr Trump has released a list of suggested Supreme Court nominees that includes no people of colour.
