As news broke of an Islamic terrorist attack on a community center in San Bernardino, California, in December 2015, Hillary Clinton’s staff didn’t express outrage at the act, but rather disappointment at the man’s ethnicity.

Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta lamented that the man was not white.

Campaign staffer emailed this tweet to Podesta and senior aides as details were breaking about the incident:

NBC News now reporting a US citizen named Sayeed Farouk believed to be one of the people involved in the shooting.

“NBC News now reporting a US citizen name Sayeed Farouk believed to be one of the people involved in the shooting,” MSNBC host Chris Hayes tweeted.

“Damn,” communications aide Karen Finney responded.

“Better if a guy named Sayeed Farouk was reporting that a guy named Christopher Hayes was the shooter,” Podesta wrote to his colleagues, referring to the white MSNBC anchor.

Why would that be “better”? And for whom?

CAIR? ISIS? Hillary Clinton? Certainly not for the 14 people killed and 22 wounded in the Islamic terrorist’s attack.
