The former secretary of state became the first presidential candidate to weigh in on Mohamed's story,
This tweet or public comment seems to lack meaning to me. Clinton did the correct thing by talking about the incident since it very thoroughly shows what is wrong in some parts of the country but by attempting to address Ahmed personally, she looks like she is attempting to make a public relations post, which it is not successful at doing.
