Pence’s comments came in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News Saturday on SiriusXM Patriot Channel 125 at the Values Voter Summit hosted by the Family Research Council (FRC) at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in downtown Washington, D.C. Pence had just wrapped a speech in which he also ripped Clinton for the remarks on Friday night, where she claimed that half of Trump’s supporters nationally—millions of people—were a “basket of deplorables” who were “irredeemable” and “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic.”
Pence said that he was “simply taken aback” by Hillary Clinton’s decision to castigate millions of Americans, and was “speechless” about it. He said such comments by anyone, including Clinton, mean that such a person “who has that low an opinion of millions of Americans should never be elected president of the United States,” meaning that this adds to the list of things that already disqualify Clinton from the presidency.

Bam! Pence slams it out of the park.
It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas... a Christmas landslide.
Plus Trump also said he would be President of ALL the people....I don’t think he hates anyone!
It was worse when I saw the clip of her deplorable comment because you could see her contempt, and coming from a crooked criminal such as herself, it just made me want to puke!
Imagine all the military heroes she just insulted!
As if her being a lying, murdering traitor wasn't reason enough to disqualify Hellary.
Really, all Democrats think Trump supporters, esp. those in fly over country, are deplorable. Every once in a while, their contempt for average, patriotic Americans filters through.
Trump’s mission is to massage this in such as way as to leave no doubt that Shrillary is referencing everyone who isn’t in the elite DC and Hollywood club. Pose the question, “which half are you”?
Hillary is right, except that it describes her party and the people who would vote for her. And to those who will vote for her, that is truly deplorable.
I prefer despicable!
Don’t let them off the hook. Whatever she says or does, keep sticking this to her.
“Plus Trump also said he would be President of ALL the people....I don’t think he hates anyone!”
He doesn’t just say it. He acts like it. When was the last time a Republican presidential candidate made such a serious pitch to the inner cities... with promises to do more?
Clintons surrendering US land to Russians, Uranium for speaking fees!
All scripted, by Hillary.
She started using that term earlier in the week as this interview on Israel TV proves it. That was going to be her scripted comment for the week for all her surrogates to use
She said on Israel TV Chanel 2 earlier in the week. Watch and listen to the entire 20 minute interview. Very eye evening. Her comment was scripted and it backfired.

Flyover country does not include only the heartland. It includes large swaths of states such as California and New York. The only reason the Dems have an Electoral College advantage is due to the big urban centers where they have been in control for generations. I don’t know if this situation is ever going to turn around, but the only long-term hope for the nation’s survival depends on somehow breaking the Dem stranglehold in the big urban centers.
Republicans have usually fared well in suburban areas surrounding the large cities, sometimes well enough to counter the huge slant in the cities. Lately though, the Rats have made inroads in the suburbs and that has meant the difference in states like PA, VA and even OH.
She’s just talking about the wrong-thinking who will need to be purged during the coming age of enlightenment that would be the glorious Hillary regime. Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot, hey! They all had to do it, why not her?
By the way, does anyone have a picture of the audience that applauded Hillary's "deplorable' comment? I want to make sure I NEVER buy a product they're connected to... or anything they touch - for the rest of my life.

Deplorables Unite... we have nothing to lose but our chains. Speaking truth to lies gives us strength..
Islamophobic - wariness of Islam is a valid fear to us deplorable basket cases.
a) Fifteen years after one of the worst attacks in the name of Islam on American soil by followers of Islam that killed thousands of innocents in the World Trade Center towers in New York, the Pentagon in Washington DC and a plane that went down in Pennsylvania because heroes on board overpowered the terrorists, stopping their plans for even more destruction;
b) Four years after an attack in the name of Islam by followers of Islam on the American Embassy in Benghazi killed four brave Americans because then Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton (D) didn't call out the troops to protect them after a 3am wake up call;
c) Brutal beheadings of Americans and others in the name of Islam by followers of Islam;
d) mass killings in the name of Islam by followers of Islam in San Bernardino, California and Orlando, Florida, Paris, France not to mention to Muslim world and more, more and even more over the centuries we're wary of the followers of Islam.
That's not phobic; wariness of Islam is a valid fear to us deplorable basket cases.
That she is clueless as to her own lack of qualification for leadership (who would follow?), her lack of sophistication in understanding and competing in the technological world in which a leader must now operate, and her ridiculous pandering to those she considers "underlings," causes one to wonder, "Just who does she think she is to call any fellow citizens by a perjorative term?"
Millions of American citizens who have been educated in the principles and ideas which caused America to be the symbol of freedom and opportunity for oppressed people are now supporting Trump for President. They now are labeled and "compartmentalized" (Clinton) by a desperate Hillary as "the deplorables."
How revolting and un-American that such a person should present himself/herself as worthy of being their President!
Please review the following story and words of a Democrat from an earlier time in America's history.
Would Hillary call him a "deplorable"?
"I believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people by the people, for the people, whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a Republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect Union, one and inseparable; established upon those principls of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.I therefore believe it is my duty to my Country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies."
Historical Notes: The American's Creed was a result of a nationwide contest for writing a National Creed, which would be a brief summary of the American political faith founded upon things fundamental in American history and tradition. The contest was the idea of Henry Sterling Chapin, Commissioner of Education of New York State. Over three thousand entries were received, and William Tyler Page was declared to be the winner. James H. Preston, the mayor of Baltimore, presented an award to Page in the House of Representatives Office Building on April 3, 1918. The Speaker of the House of Representatives and the commissioner of education of the state of New York accepted the Creed for the United States, and the proceedings relating to the award were printed in the Congressional Record of April 13, 1918. It was a time when patriotic sentiments were very much in vogue. The United States had been a participant in World War I only a little over a year at the time the Creed was adopted.
The author of the American's Creed, William Tyler Page, was a descendant of John Page, who had come to America in 1650 and had settled in Williamsburg, Virginia. Another ancestor, Carter Braxton , had signed the Declaration of Independence. Still another ancestor, John Tyler, was the tenth president of the United States. William Tyler Page had come to Washington at the age of thirteen to serve as a Capitol Page. Later he became an employee of the Capitol building and served in that capacity for almost sixty-one years. In 1919 he was elected clerk of the House. Thirteen years later, when the Democrats again became a majority party, they created for Page the office of minority clerk of the House of Representatives. He held this position for the remainder of his life.
Referring to the Creed, Page said: "It is the summary of the fundamental principles of the American political faith as set forth in its greatest documents, its worthiest traditions, and its greatest leaders." His wording of the Creed used passages and phrases from the Declaration of Independence, the Preamble to the Constitution, Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, and Daniel Webster's reply to Robert Y. Hayne in the Senate in 1830.
