Half of Trump Supporters Belong in 'Basket of Deplorables'

I think this'll go over like a turd in the punch bowl with a lot of people. SHe just called a huge fraction of Americans deplorable, not too cool.

"Hillary Clinton urged supporters late Friday not to be complacent about Donald Trump's chances of winning the election, saying half of his backers were "desperate for change" but the other half belonged in a "basket of deplorables."

Sounds about right. A lot of them are part of the white nationalism movement. Hell his campaign CEO freely admits to running a white nationalism site.

She was being optimistic.

By the way, what exactly is a basket of deplorables'?

Hillary is dead wrong on this!!!!!!




Half seems a way too low.

LOL. What does that make the Hillary apologists? They turn a blind eye, like the OJ supporters and the Cosby supporters and absolutely refuse to see how corrupt she truly is?

There are two candidates that have foundations. Only one has been fined for abusing it for personal gain. It wasn't Hillary.
Only one candidate has admitted in court to discriminating against minorities. It wasn't Hillary.
Only one candidate is currently in Federal court for running what amounted to fraudulent enterprises. It isn't Hillary.
Only one candidate is a a serial adulterer. It isn't Hillary.

I could go on but why bother?

LOL, in one day the'smartest woman in the world' tells vets how wrong she was on her Iraq vote and follows it up by insulting half of the voters she hopes to lead! Like poison ivy, Liarry is the gift that keeps on giving.

When will this race to the bottom, actually hit bottom?

Mali.....do you want to define your comment "a lot of them"? Because if someone else here said something like that you'd be taking offense.

Oh goodie! Another thread where people who cheer Trump's political incorrectness have their feelings hurt by something insensitive Hillary said.

According to a PPP poll of self-identified Trump supporters:
link
-65% think President Obama is a Muslim, only 13% think he’s a Christian.
-59% think President Obama was not born in the United States, only 23% think that he was.
-24% think Antonin Scalia was murdered, just 42% think he died naturally, another 34% are unsure.

"Basket of deplorables" is probably the nicest phrase I would use to describe these people.
"Inbred, Confederate morons" would be the more likely phrase I would choose.

that is the pot calling the kettle black. no one is more deplorable than that old sea hag!!

"Let the Deplorables eat cake, . . . . . . ."
