Hillary Clinton Responds to Trump's View of Haitians

When a powerful man makes a remark as crass as the one Donald Trump made yesterday, two reactions are possible. 1. Sputtering speechlessness - a loss for words. 2. Reversion to kind - only a sh*t-for-brains would make a remark like that.

So profound was the shock at what he said, that most of us forgot that the comment came on the eighth anniversary of the earthquake that devastated Haiti.

Hillary Clinton did not forget.

The anniversary of the devastating earthquake 8 years ago is a day to remember the tragedy, honor the resilient people of Haiti, & affirm America’s commitment to helping our neighbors. Instead, we‘re subjected to Trump’s ignorant, racist views of anyone who doesn’t look like him.
