“I don’t think that Trump and [vice presidential nominee Mike] Pence are as racist as the people who attacked Leslie Jones, I really don’t. Trump may be saying some things to go that way to get some votes but – well I don’t know.”

Using the hashtag #LoveForLeslieJ, Jones received an outpouring of love from other celebrities, including her ‘Ghostbusters’ director, Paul Feig.
