Did anyone hear that Hillary apologized? She issued a statement expressing regret for calling half of Trump supporters bigots and all that.
Anyone else think she’s just digging a deeper hole?? She expressed regret for saying “half” of Trump supporters were in this category.
So what is she saying? She’s saying we need to revise the percentage used, but the thrust of her statement is still right on???
She took back the fake apology even as she pretended to “apologize” — she loosely re-formulated it, incoherently, but it seemed like she wants to say that she only regrets that she made such a wide generalization. She does not doubt that vast numbers of Trump supporters are evil racists, sexists, homophobes, Islamophobes etc. She only regrets saying it was “half”....
Of course she was also highly offensive about the other “half” of Trump supporters, asserting that they are all mindlessly looking for change, any change, they don’t care what kind of change.
One thing is not in doubt from her original statment, she and her ilk view 100% of Trump supporters as idiots to be talked down to, patronized, condescended to etc etc.
She regretting saying it. The *itch didn’t say anything about regretting the thoughts she expressed. That’s not an apology; it’s an acknowledgement of her belief in the comments she made.
“She expressed regret for saying ‘half’ of Trump supporters were in this category.”
She means that she should’ve said that “ALL” of Trump supporters were in this category.
