Former first lady Michelle Obama slammed Donald Trump for the derogatory terms he uses to call his political opponents without directly naming him.
Obama made the remarks during a powerful speech in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania with just three days left until Election Day.
“Once you open up that gasoline can, once you wink at hate and make it normal to call somebody a bimbo, or low IQ, or human scum, look, you cannot control how fast or far that fire of hate will spread,” Michelle Obama said.
The former first lady warned that such language can inspire harmful actions and statements.
“All of sudden someone feels emboldened to say that our fellow citizens in Puerto Rico come from an ‘Island of garbage’,” Obama added.
“Destruction is swift and it is merciless, and no one knows where it will stop.”
