In a cozy interview with Chelsea Clinton, aired on Thursday’s NBC Today, about her mother’s upcoming speech at the Democratic National Convention,, co-host Matt Lauer fretted over Republican attacks on Hillary Clinton: “As a daughter, Chelsea...what was it like to sit and watch a television and hear people in an arena chanting ‘lock her up,’ hear Donald Trump say ‘crooked Hillary’? How do you digest that?”
In response, Clinton tried to deflect the criticism: “...as a mom, what I found so disturbing were things that were being said on a national stage [at the Republican National Convention]...about women, about minorities, about Muslims, about immigrants. I mean, that's not what I want my children to hear....And so, that actually I found far more upsetting....than anything they said about my mom.”
