Failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton doubled down this week on calling half of former President Donald Trump’s supporters a “basket of deplorables.”
Clinton reflected on the infamous and divisive comment she made during a fundraiser in 2016 in a Washington Post op-ed published on Wednesday, adapted from her new book Something Lost, Something Gained: Reflections on Life, Love, and Liberty. In the article, the former secretary of state recalled a meeting she had with a former white supremacist who now works to deprogram people leaving hate groups as an entry to discuss her “deplorables” comment, and said the term is “too kind a word” for some of Trump’s most fervent followers.
“In 2016, I famously described half of Trump’s supporters as ‘the basket of deplorables.’ I was talking about the people who are drawn to his racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia — you name it. The people for whom his bigotry is a feature, not a bug,” Clinton wrote.

The brilliant Hillary Clinton or so the media tells us she is, flunked the DC bar exam. ‘Nuff said.

Her hatred is eating at her, more and more every year. It’s gotta be poisoning her insides. I’m glad she keeps the hate going, and I will happily accept her names for us. I’d take any name she can call me rather than have the name SHE deserves most: MURDERER. Spot on.
Gonna call you Friday or this weekend.

What a crazy bitch/loca chingada-I’ll bet Bill is praying that her weight and all the vodka and unhealthy food she consumes causes her demise soon so he can have a few years of peace and quiet-I almost feel sorry for him...
I don't. He's a rapist who deserves to be married to Loreena Bobbitt.
