Harry Reid calls Trump 'sexual predator' who fueled his campaign with hate
- 8 years ago
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid on Friday reacted to Donald Trump winning this week’s presidential election, releasing a statement saying Americans should not forget the hatred and fear the president-elect brought to the country.
If this is going to be a time of healing, we must first put the responsibility for healing where it belongs: at the feet of Donald Trump, a sexual predator who lost the popular vote and fueled his campaign with bigotry and hate," Reid said in a long statement.
He lamented that “white nationalists, Vladimir Putin and ISIS are celebrating Donald Trump’s victory, while innocent, law-abiding Americans are wracked with fear – especially African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Muslim Americans, LGBT Americans and Asian Americans.”
