Hillary Clinton in Seattle: ‘This election is extremely painful’
Calling this election “incredibly painful” and saying she took no pleasure in the cascade of scandal and allegations hitting her Republican opponent, Hillary Clinton swung through Seattle on Friday, holding a high-priced private fundraiser and stopping briefly at a campaign office to rally supporters.
With Republican Donald Trump hit with a raft of allegations of sexual misconduct this week and ratcheting his campaign rhetoric ever more hostile, Clinton called for healing the divisions the election is creating.
“This election is incredibly painful, I take absolutely no satisfaction in what is happening on the other side, with my opponent,” the Democratic presidential nominee said in a brief speech to a packed, cheering room at a Madrona campaign office.
“I am not at all happy about that because it hurts our country, it hurts our democracy, it sends terrible messages to so many people here at home and around the world,” she said. “Damage is being done that we’re going to have to repair. Divisions are being deepened that were going to have to try and heal.”
