Because Trump is usually tactful and diplomatic but no one ever cuts him any slack?

Corey Booker and Eric Holder are BOTH black men. Eric Holder was quite celebrated as the nation’s first African American Attorney General.

As much as I don’t care for Mrs Clinton, I don’t think she was saying that SHE thinks all black people look alike. She was making a jab at the INTERVIEWER’S confusing two black men. There is a stereotype about white people’s inability to tell blacks, Asians, etc., apart “because they all look alike.” It is called “the other-race effect.”

A person of her political experience should have known better than to say something like that in today’s climate, though. It was a major faux pas.

You can't make this stuff up. Hillarys the gift that keeps on giving.

Hillary Clinton joked about how black men like Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., and former Attorney General Eric Holder "all look alike."

During an interview on Friday, Clinton made the quip while correcting Recode's Kara Swisherabout who recently goaded on Democratic voters by rhetorically encouraging them to "kick" Republicans when they "go low."

After Clinton noted how she adores Booker, Swisher asked the former secretary of state what she thought about this "kick them" remark.

"Well, that was Eric Holder," Clinton noted.

"Eric Holder, oh, Eric Holder, sorry," Swisher said.

"Yeah, I know they all look alike," Clinton quipped to a wave of laughter and applause

Imagine if Trump said that.

People will say it was a joke and nothing more, which would be fine if they were willing to make the same claim had someone on the right said it.
