Donald Trump is no longer a laughing matter, Hillary Clinton told "Late Night With Seth Meyers" on Thursday.
"I have to say, Seth, I no longer think he is funny,"
she said on the NBC program, referencing the Republican presidential front-runner's call to ban Muslims from entering the United States out of terrorism concerns.
"For weeks, you and everybody else were just bringing folks to hysterical laughter, but now he has gone way over the line.
"And what he is saying now is not only shameful and wrong, it is dangerous," Clinton said, according to MSNBC.
She also slammed Trump's comments at a town hall meeting in Iowa on Wednesday,
The New York Times reports.
In her strongest comments against the developer amid his continuing strong poll numbers, Clinton accused Trump of trafficking "in prejudice and paranoia."
However, in later comments to the crowd in Waterloo, the former secretary of state acknowledged an anxiety among voters that Trump has successfully tapped into.
"It’s OK, it’s OK to be afraid," she cautioned, according to the Times. "When bad things happen, it does cause anxiety and fear.
"But then you pull yourself together and, especially, if you want to be a leader of our country, and you say: 'OK, what are we going to do about it? How are we going to be prepared?'"
