Hillary Clinton didn’t even have to mention Donald Trump’s name to slam the loquacious businessman as anti-women on Thursday.
To big applause, Clinton hit Trump as someone who “just seems to delight in insulting women.”
“We hear from candidates on the other side about turning back the clock on women’s rights. And there is one particular candidate who just seems to delight in insulting women any chance he gets,” Clinton said in Columbus, Ohio. “I have to say, if he emerges, I would love to debate him.”
The line brought Clinton sustained applause.
Her jab the day after Trump knocked businesswoman Carly Fiorina’s looks in a Rolling Stone profile published Wednesday.
“Look at that face!” Trump said while sitting with a Rolling Stone reporter as Fiorina appeared on TV. “Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president.”
Trump told CNN on Thursday that his remarks was not about her physical looks, but instead about her “persona.”
