22. You do realize that he

is polling with about the same support as she is, roughly, so half meaning about 20 million Americans fit into her narrative? I don't think so, sure their are racists but not to the extreme that she is painting it, in fact they will argue racism in both sides of the aisle so to me this is not a smart move. Insult the candidate that is one thing, insult broad swaths of Americans, not good.
