'I meant no disrespect': Hillary admits she 'upset or offended' some Americans with comments she made about Trump supporters and white women voting like their husbands

Hillary Clinton took to Facebook to explain some comments she made in India that had drawn criticism from Democrats and the Trump White House

'I understand how some of what I said upset people and can be misinterpreted,' Clinton said in the post

The ex-nominee said she wasn't trying to attack red states when she talked about how areas that went for Trump weren't as economically advantage

She stood her ground - while noting it was hard to hear - but believed that some women were swayed to vote for a male candidate by their husbands

'It may not be universally true or easy to hear, but yes, it’s a dynamic still at play in our society,' Clinton said

Hillary Clinton provided an explanation for some recent comments she made that she understood 'upset or offended' some Americans – statements that drew criticism from fellow Democrats and the Trump White House alike.

'I understand how some of what I said upset people and can be misinterpreted. I meant no disrespect to any individual or group,' she said in a Facebook post. 'And I want to look to the future as much as anybody.'

Clinton, on a trip to India, had talked about how her voters came from economically advantaged places in comparison to Trump voters, and also noted how white women often voted the same way as their husbands. A number of Democrats were critical of Clinton's remarks because they didn't like how she portrayed red states and female voters.

The Trump White House again called her out of touch.

But in a way, it's better for us if she keeps insulting voters.

Good point. Hillary's the gift that keeps giving...

Dem big shots may soon realize that Hillary is a liability. Even if that happens, how can they:
1) Shut her up
2) Unite with the far left, or cheat again in the primaries without being caught?

On Saturday, Greg Gutfeld’s show had a funny segment about Hillary, including a 2020 campaign ad.

“I don’t mean that in a bad way”

Don’t know if you’re referring to Dom Irrera, but he used to use that line often in his routines. Cracked me up.

That must be him. Found a YouTube and remember the cousin who claimed to be funny, just not around people.
