These letters from children about Donald Trump’s bullying will break your heart: http://hrc.io/2cYnRxO @marcosjsaldivar

Children across the country may not be able to vote, but they’re still paying attention to the election—and they can feel the effects of Donald Trump’s bullying.

Trump has painted Mexicans as “rapists,” “criminals,” and murderers—and called for a new “special deportation task force.” He has called for a ban on Muslims from entering the country. And during the first presidential debate, Hillary Clinton pointed out Trump’s history of disparaging women, comparing them to “fat pigs” and “slobs.”

Kids across America can hear Trump loud and clear—and they’re frightened. Take a look at some of the heartbreaking letters kids have sent to Hillary:
Children of Mexican descent are scared of what a Trump presidency will mean:

“I want you to win because I don’t want to go back to Mexico… It takes me one week and one days to get to Mexico. I love the USA.” -Alexander
