She is not incorrect. The only people angry about this are people who are already voting for Trump and people who are racist, but want to pretend like they are not.

Trump calls Hispanics rapists and it's a hilarious joke. The double standards are clear.

This was one of the few fundraisers open to the press. Hillary did this on purpose, it was no gaffe.

This.

If this was against Romney, Bush, or any other traditional Republican, she would never say this. Anyway, she is 100% correct and I am glad she said this. Trump supporters bigotry and racism has been down played way too much for my liking by the media(ex. hiding behind bull**** reasons like economy anxiety, even though the vast majority are more wealthy then the average American).

Agreed. This is not a normal election and many negative elements have come to the surface that have no come up before.

What about minorities that still vote for Trump. Are they just dumb or racists/fascists? Smiley

They are not smart for voting for someone who would prefer to see them locked up, deported or perhaps even worse.

What about 'Stronger Together' again? And representing all Americans?

Racism is not something to be tolerated. Being Stronger Together means calling out the people who would see every non-white person in this country scrubbed out.

It's on her Facebook page. It wasn't necessarily an apology, though.
