'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.

'I understand how some of what I said upset people and can be misinterpreted. I meant no disrespect to any individual or group,'

Now the smartest woman in the world is stupid enough to think that the American people are too stupid to see through this too.

Has anyone seen a Trump golf shot hitting her on the stairs?

“All Trump voters are racist, misogynists, sexual predators, white supremacist Nazis.

No disrespect intended.” Hillary Clinton.

They should ask her -- did Bill tell her how to vote?  (And did Bill tell her to vote for Trump?)

"Hillary should sit her ground for her own safety."

Maybe she should take a giant, reinforced sliding board around with her on this bash-America tour, for those times she has to descend stairs someplace.

Odd comment to make because everything she has ever accomplished in her life has been because she rode her husband’s coattails.

What a typical insulting Hillary apology. “I’m sorry if YOU (stupid deplorables) misinterpreted what Queen Hillary declared in a foreign country and didn’t think would be quoted back home.”

But the bigger concern is why does Her Arrogance feel the need to apologize? Does it actually mean she’s considering running again?
OMG.

Where was her S.S detail when she was falling down the stairs, and where was the guy with the injections?

Exactly. The American “peasants” are a LOT smarter than her thighness believes.

So what she said was, “I’m sorry you felt insulted, but I really meant it, plus I think you’re stupid. Vote for me next time.”

Who’d have thought she would manage to get a second foot in her mouth—and both in up to her cankles—by circling back with a non-apology apology?

Hilly is right. On election day my wife always asks me who we are voting for. She is a super busy mom of 8, so she relies on my research. But she knows on her own not to go for someone like ms rodham.

Sort of sounds like she is saying ‘some women didn’t understand that what I said may have been taken as an insult — until their husbands/men in their lives told them I may have insulted them.’

Hill still thinks that the women in flyover country and elsewhere, who didn’t vote for her, are stupid.

How many groups has she alienated since her Excuses Tours? Months ago, DailyMailUK had the number of her excuses at something like 71.
