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."

Deplorable, and damned proud of it. That’s me.
These deplowwable omniphobes!
Are the Hillary brain clots causing this alt-right verbiage?
If you aren’t kissing special interest racial hiney, if you aren’t refusing to be color blind, you’re racist. That’s how these names work. Get out the lefty dictionary.
This is dangerous language. She is vilianizing a large amount of people. This is comparable to Hitler calling people “undesirable.” I will also add, that she would have no problem ordering mass executions to everyone on FR.
She’d at least sentence all to a figurative death, built from setting all her special interests above them.
Well, all I can say is that Trump is going to need a bigger basket.
Hillary’s supporters: Basket of parasites.
As another Freeper stated, when a candidate for elected office begins attacking the American people, their campaign is over.
We’ve had 8 years of division with Captain Midnight in the White House. This bitch can take a hike.
LOL! You win best post of the day!
Perfect. :)
I like that. I like being deplorable to criminals and thieves.
Thank you!
Hillary’s heart is black.
The Deplorables vs the Deportables.
That is just plain scary.
This is fun! :)
I predict someone will be making some money with very creative t-shirts very soon. ;)
