“The Democratic Party has trapped millions of African American and Hispanic youth in failing government schools that deny them the opportunity to join the ladder of American success”, he said.
“Those are people we have to understand and empathise with, as well”.
Clinton has not let the media into many private fundraisers, but press was allowed in to hear her remarks Friday. I have no idea, and neither, I imagine, does Trump, nor does he much care at this point, so long as it helps TRUMP MAKE AMERICA (and the federal budget) GREAT AGAIN! .

Mr Trump’s son Eric took aim at Mrs Clinton’s remarks, posting a photo of a sports arena packed with Trump supporters on Twitter. “Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic – you name it”, she said, before stressing that other Trump supporters are frustrated and need sympathy.
