CULVER CITY, Calif. (AP) – Hillary Clinton said Friday that Donald Trump has “lowered the bar” with regard to keeping the peace at his rallies and creating an environment that encourages dialogue.
The likely Democratic nominee for president said in an interview with CNN that the presumptive Republican nominee has “set a very bad example” for not condemning the violence that is increasingly associated with his rallies, whether by his own supporters or his opponents.
We must “condemn all violence in the political arena,” Clinton said. “I don’t think any of this helps anybody.”
Clinton once again hit Trump for the controversy surrounding his now-defunct Trump University, a real estate education program that some participants said made fraudulent promises, saying that the New York real estate mogul “preyed on people.”
He “has taken them by asking them to max out their credit cards, to appoint financial despair and walked away. So I will let the lawsuits go on,” Clinton said.
