Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made a joke that all blacks 'look alike' after an interviewer botched a question and mixed up two prominent African American politicians.

Clinton made the comment after questioner Kara Swisher of Recode asked her following a discussion of political correctness: 'What do you think of Cory Booker … saying, 'Kick them in the shins essentially'?'

'Well that was Eric Holder,' Clinton responded – correcting her host, who meant to reference the former attorney general.

'Eric Holder, sorry,' Swisher responded, according to video of the event.

'I know, they all look alike,' deadpanned Clinton, apparently taking a shot at her questioner.

'No they don't,' Swisher quickly interjected.

Hillary Clinton told Donna Brazile that she looked like a cow

If all black people look alike to Hillary, does that mean she thinks all black people look like cows?

>>>’No they don’t,’ Swisher quickly interjected<<<

That was the funniest part of it. Swisher didn’t know of she should laugh or cry. Her quick reaction tells me she thought Hillary had made a serious comment, not a joke..

She looks kind of creepy all hunched over. I mean she normally looks creepy but this is extra creepy.

Never funny. Hillary only cynically says that because she’s a racist and arrogant and knows she can get away with it.

Pff, she’s not racist, she carries hot sauce in her purse. Everyone knows that blacks love hot sauce, and Hillary loves hot sauce, so she’s practically an honorary black person herself.

Everyone is beginning to figure out who the real racists are...

And it isn’t the Republicans...

And the Democrats have not been so enraged since we freed all their slaves in 1863, and history may repeat itself...

Indeed we do. Whether they were in politics or the corporate world, they'd be out.

And don’t forget the audience laughed big time. The left would say this is “proof” that Trump voters are racist Nazis...

It may be that Hillary was trying to insinuate that Swisher is racist (I don't know what race Swisher identifies with).

It should be easy to tell Booker and Holder apart. Holder doesn't look the least bit like Spartacus. But telling Booker and Maxine Waters apart might be more difficult.

Her defense is that she wasn't being racist, instead she was trying to humiliate the host by mocking her as a racist for making a simple mistake.

Either way, she's a hateful witch.

I guess HilLIARy wants to go back to segregation? Pre-Little Rock, Arkansas.. say, 1953?

How many black votes will she get now, even for dog catcher (a job with so much responsibility that I’d never trust her with it)

To accuse somone and say that outloud is incredibly racist. To even have that thought in her head is gross.
