Clinton condemns Trump's rhetoric after violent rallies

U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Saturday criticized the Republican frontrunner Donald Trump for "ugly, divisive rhetoric" that encouraged aggression and violence.  Her comments in Cleveland of Ohio come a day after rowdy protests on Friday shut down the New York billionaire's rally in Chicago. DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, HILLARY CLINTON .... "I want to say a few words about what happened in Chicago last night. Now we will always have our differences, that's what happens in a democracy. We dialogue, we debate, we disagree. But the ugly divisive rhetoric from Donald Trump and the encouragement of violence and aggression is not only wrong, it's dangerous." 

Trump blamed Sanders supporters for the incidents in Chicago, where scuffles broke out between protesters and backers of the real estate magnate. He called the U.S. senator from Vermont "our communist friend."The scenes in Chicago follow a series of recent incidents of violence at Trump rallies, in which protesters and journalists have been punched, tackled and hustled out of venues, raising concerns about degrading security leading into the Nov. 8 election.
