Donald Trump's campaign manager is objecting to Hillary Clinton's depiction of half of his supporters as a "basket of deplorables."
Clinton was speaking at an LGBT fundraiser in New York City Friday night when she described those supporters as "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic you name it." But she stressed that the rest of the Republican nominee's supporters are people who feel let down by the government and the economy and are "just desperate for change," and said those people need sympathy.
Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway quickly responded on Twitter, writing, "One day after promising to be aspirational & uplifting, Hillary insults millions of Americans."
Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill tweeted that Clinton was referring to "alt-right" voters who "appear to make up half his crowd."

The only time Hillary is aspirational is when she coughs.
Then why didn't she say that?
What a bunch of liars.
illary is the deplorable criminal seeking to implement deplorable policies.
The basket of deplorables are the Democrat party, the party of importing jihad and fraudulently documented foreigners.
The citizens are not deplorable for wanting to keep their country and the rule of law.
What is the alt-right? About 15 people?
I damn well done want the witch’s sympathy so that makes me a deplorable.
On the other hand, half of Hillary’s supporters are a “basket of deportables.”
The “basket of deplorables” is the number the #1 trending subject on Tweeter. At 7 AM Clinton’s comments was the lead story on CNN. They’re scared she’s stepped in it. This comes on the heels two days ago of her calling Trump supporters “racists and haters”. Fox so far (in the tank for Hillary) have ignored her remarks. MSNBC’s lead story was Trump giving a campaign donation to Pam Bondi. So the Clinton camp is worried sick that this could be her “47%” moment, in-spite of Fox blowing it off.
“The basket of deplorables are the Democrat party,”
This is an Alinsky technique: Ascribe negative characteristics of self to the opposition.
I have trouble caring what Hillary says anytime. Especially when she is pandering to faggots.
Trump needs to embrace the label. Deplorable is the new adorable.
I sent a tweet to Kellyanne to come here and lol at our Deplorable thread. We are having too much fun for a Saturday morning.
I don't know, and I very much that many ordinary Americans know either.
This is like blaming Benghazi on a movie that no one ever saw or heard about.
She’ll need a long rest after this latest faux pas.
And a better handler. Someone over there dropped the ball.
This is known as “casting aspersions”
Some might like to say, deplorable basket cases.
Hillary Clinton deliberately doing nothing as Ambassador Chris Stevens' body was dragged through streets of Benghazi by muslim savages. There are unconfirmed reports that his body was also "quartered".....DEPLORABLE!
She mentioned a list of six or seven “ists” and certainly was not just referring to the alt-right. As mentioned: LIARS.
Even one of the Obama campaign directors is bashing Hillary now:
