Hillary: Half of Trump supporters belong in 'basket of deplorables'

Racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, etc.

Let’s try an experiment, shall we? Let’s say it’s four years ago, and a Republican nominee for president makes a broad, sweeping statement about Democrat voters - saying they are dependent on government largese and this is the reason it’s so difficult to get them to vote Republican. The statement is secretly recorded and released to the public.

What happens? Well, we don’t have to speculate because this isn’t imaginary. It really happened, and Mitt Romney’s well-documented (and also totally accurate) comment about the 47 percent of voters who depend on government was used to beat him in the head continually by the news media. It helped lead to his defeat. If you ask me, that’s an injustice because the statement was not only accurate but very much worth discussing, But I don’t make the rules, and that’s what happened.

What pisses me off most about this is that she is throwing us in the same basket with Muslims.

I think I don’t have to put a TRUMP sign on the rear window of my car.
I could print up a DEPLORABLE!! , alternate red and blue letters on a white poster board.
Then I could inform fellow Freepers my car was vandalized, tires slit, window broken, and the thing torched.

I would have to say that half of her supporters are deportables.
