Democratic Rep. Gwen Moore also explained why the former president's slur was pure projection.
Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Wis.) had a damning response to Donald Trump’s reported insulting of Milwaukee as a “horrible city” just weeks before the Republican National Convention begins there on July 15.
Moore, whose congressional district includes a large swathe of the city, told MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell that the presumptive GOP presidential nominee’s comment was pure projection.
Trump himself is “a horrible person,” she said.
“It’s not just these 34 felony counts, but he’s a sexual assaulter and there are 54 more counts against him for really trying to undermine our elections and […] inspire an insurrection,” Moore added. “So, he’s a horrible person.”
