Last week Chelsea Clinton spoke in what appeared to be a closet. This week it’s a “small meeting room.”
Chelsea campaigned on behalf of her mother’s campaign Friday at the College of Charleston on the eve of the South Carolina primary.
Post and Courier reporter Paul Bowers captured the intimate setting for what was billed as a “town hall” event:

“Small meeting room filling up,” he wrote. Bowers’ photo shows several seats were empty in the fourth row moments before the event was to begin.
ABC 4 reporter Bill Burr reported Chelsea said she’s “bothered by normalization of hate speech shown during GOP debates.”

Burr also tweeted that Chelsea was confronted by a woman who said Hillary “hasn’t admitted to mistakes regarding criminal justice charges that hurt black community.”

According to Burr, Chelsea responded that her father “her Dad apologized to NAACP last yr” and that the Clinton “Crime bill had unintended consequences.”
