Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence said that Donald Trump “is not an experienced politician who carefully selects his words” since “he speaks right from his heart.”

Last Friday, in an appeal to African-American voters Trump said, “You’re living in poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs, 58 percent of your youth is unemployed — what the hell do you have to lose?

CNN’s Alisyn Camerota asked Pence, “So in terms of the language that he used on Friday night, you were OK with it. The you’re living in poverty, you have no jobs, what the hell do you have to lose. You were OK with it being that blunt of a message?”

“Well look, Donald Trump is not an experienced politician who carefully selects his words. He speaks right from his heart, right from his mind,” Pence replied. “And what you heard this week is a leader who is determined to make America great for everyone in this country. And I think you’re going to continue to see this campaign in the days and weeks ahead speak directly to Americans in every community about what our plan to make America great again is going to mean for them and mean for their families.”
