She characterized half of Trump supporters as people to “empathize with.” She characterized the other half as “the racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic — you name it.”Speaking to donors on Friday night, Hillary Clinton outlined what she sees as the two types of Trump supporters.
First, there are those in the “basket of deplorables” — who include racists, xenophobes, and homophobes, and make up about “half” of Trump’s supporters, Clinton said. She called this group “irredeemable.”
Second, there are the people who “don’t buy everything he says,” but want desperately to see change. She said this group was worthy of empathy.
In recent weeks, the topic of racism has animated some of Clinton’s messaging, after she gave a high-profile speech about Trump’s history on race and the rise of the alt-right, a white nationalist movement that has been energized by Trump’s rise. Generally, though, Clinton has avoided characterizing Trump himself as racist, instead choosing to label her opponent’s statements as racist.......
The remarks came at an LGBT-focused fundraiser in New York City that included appearances by Laverne Cox and Barbra Streisand.

I am going to design a bumper sticker, “Halla effin Looya, and display it proudly on the ninth of November.
“I’m deplorable, AND I VOTE!!!” ;)

Sounds sort of Hitlerish to me!
Irredeemables don’t deserve empathy. The logical progression from there is clear.
They must be eliminated.
This is Clinton’s “47%” speech to donors. (Romney)
Will the media feast on her dismissal of half the electorate?
One day after promising to be aspirational & uplifting, Hillary insults millions of Americans. #desperate https://t.co/OrBkowI4Sd

Just picked up by Breitbart. Should be on Drudgereport soon.
LOL....I just hope and pray that Trump pulls this out, so your bumper sticker can be proudly displayed!
SPOT ON !
The MSM have and shall IGNORE this. :-(
No problem. If she ever said that I’m some kind of great guy, I’d have to go to a mountain top and re-evaluate everything. I don’t want her ilk to like me.
I don't want some elitist bullsh*t empathy from that witch either... put me in 'deplorables' ... If she wins we could be packed on the same train...
What’s freakin’ hilarious here is that Hitlery is falling into the same trap that the RINOs were when Trump walked through all 16 of them on his way to the candidacy. What I said about them then is: “OK, if you’re a candidate and you’re trying to pull your competitor’s voters over to you, you’re going to do that by calling them kooks and whackos? Yeah, they’re going to come running when you do that—NOT!”
Pretty much confirms my theory that she hates everybody.
This is the mind set of the DC political class....they.cannot or will not make any effort to even touch the average citizen. They after all are the special ones. Keep it up Hillary. You can commiserate with Yeb
For somebody who needs EVERY vote she can get, she sure goes out of her way to pi$$ people off. What a loser she is!
