Presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton responded to Donald Trump, who criticized President Obama and Clinton, calling on them to describe the shooter in the Orlando attack as a “radical Islamic” terrorist.

“In my perspective, it matters what we do, not what we say,” Clinton said. “To me, radical jihadism, radical Islamism, I think they mean the same thing. I’m happy to say either, but that’s not the point.”

Clinton continued, saying that she wasn’t going to “demonize” or “declare war on an entire religion” because that would play into the hands of ISIS.
