'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.

She STOOD HER GROUND? I think not.

On Saturday Clinton explained that in India she was asked if Trump was a 'virus' or if his election was a 'symptom' of something deeper going on in the United States.

'Like most Americans, people overseas remain shocked and dismayed at what they are witnessing daily,' she began. 'My first instinct was to defend Americans and explain how Donald Trump could have been elected.'

It is a dynamic? Based on what Ginger Rogers?

'I understand how some of what I said upset people and can be misinterpreted,'

The reason Mrs. Bill Clinton wasn't elected is that people don't misinterpret what she says.

Hillary’s words, thoughts and opinions are blather.

You didn’t upset me Hilary. Nothing a nonentity like yourself says could possibly upset me.

“white women voting like their husbands”

Nice cover by the Mail. That’s not what she said. She said they voted the way their husbands/brothers/sons told them to. As is they were brainless morons with no backbone.

IF she’s telling the truth it cements her position as the most ‘out-of-touch with America’ politician ever.

I love how the onus is on the listener. They misinterpreted. She didn’t say anything wrong. We all heard wrong.

“Propped up by two men, and she still falls!”
Obama on one side, Bill Clinton on the other.
Bill yells at Hillary’ “Open your eyes, Hillary, or you’re gonna drag all three of us down with you!”
