TAMPA, Fla. — Leaning heavily on her tenure as secretary of state, Hillary Clinton assailed Donald J. Trump’s national security credentials on Tuesday, portraying him as a bungling businessman unequipped to serve as commander in chief.

“He says he has a secret plan to defeat ISIS. The secret is, he has no plan,” Mrs. Clinton said in a blistering speech here dripping with ridicule directed at her Republican rival.

Mrs. Clinton repeatedly referred to her experiences as the nation’s top diplomat — and enlisted her running mate, Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, to do the same in his first national security address — to draw a contrast with Mr. Trump.

Mrs. Clinton’s emphasis on her experience in global stagecraft comes a week after Mr. Trump tried to bolster his foreign policy credentials with a trip to Mexico. Mrs. Clinton called the trip “an embarrassing international incident.”

“He got into a Twitter war with the president of Mexico,” she added, alluding to Enrique Peña Nieto. “He is temperamentally unfit and totally unqualified to be president of the United States.”.................
