As I said, I used comments about attire as an extreme example. My intention was not to reflect reality. I believe she faced "worse" that that.
Which is kind of the point. Some insults are worse than others. Telling her she's dumb (or should "shut up") is worse than going after handbags too, which is your point, not mine - but I agree. And a racial slur is even worse that that.

Bad, probably. I'm not trying to belittle that.

Possibly - but that example isn't too good. I'm the majority race, I do not face insults about that, and racism towards me never was an issue I had to deal with.
So I can only speculate... but if I were black and someone called me the n word, I'd probably consider that worse as someone telling me to shut up because I have no idea.

I think racist comments are worse, yes. On the grounds that I think racist insults are worse than all kinds of other insults. Calling a black man something with n is worse than calling a black or any man dumb or ill-suited to talk or anything. I'm curious in why that's even an issue.
Also, you can't go quite as far as to say "the left" went after her citizenship status. That only was brought up because of Trump's extreme hard line against family reunions and such. And that's not completely without merit.
