A spokesperson for Hillary Clinton literally told Donald Trump to “go f*** yourself.”
Jesse Lehrich, Clinton’s foreign policy spokesman, apparently took umbrage at Trump’s remark during Sunday’s presidential debate that Capt. Humayun Khan might still be alive if not for Clinton.
“Unlike her, who voted for the war…I would not have had people in Iraq because Iraq was a disaster,” Trump said. “So he would be alive today.”
Lehrich then unleashed the following tweet, which was just a little bit vulgar:
hey, @realDonaldTrump – regarding your claim that Captain Khan would be alive if you were president:
go fuck yourself.#debate

That tweet has still not been deleted.
Lehrich did apologize for it:
I want to apologize for the clearly inappropriate nature and language of this personal tweet. Sorry all.

Naturally, Twitter savaged Lehrich for his colorful verbiage:
Hillary said during debate she’s against dirty campaigning: “When they go low, we go high”

Vulgarity does seem to be a common theme with Clinton. It would appear to be hypocritical for Clinton to get on her horse and rail against Trump’s crude language when her spokesman uses profanity in a tweet that he has yet to delete.
