Hillary Clinton Doubles Down on Calling Trump Supporters ‘Deplorables,’ Says it’s ‘Too Kind a Word’

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.

This is how you gin up violence, which is what they want. Did you hear about Oprah with Biden calling Trump a “bug” and Biden pretending to squish on a bug with his shoe? Imagine a Kennedy, Carter, Reagan or even Clinton doing such a thing.

Goes both ways ... we have words for her, too .... not printable on a family site.

This type of thing never bothered because my thoughts concerning leftists like her are far more severe.

[Libloather]

Too late. Already got the shirt.

Trump Bros don’t care what Hillary says, we welcome her bigotry and hatred with open arms.

“More please......pretty please.”

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Compare Cankles to Rosalynn Carter or Pat Nixon. No comparison.

Well, her bigotry is universally applied to everyone beneath her, so she can’t be accused of being racist or sexist.

I would love to tell her what I think of her, but I like FR too much. What a despicable person.

[Destroyer Sailor]

What an evil person she is. I never had any respect for her.

[tet68]

What hog wash. She considers all MAGA deplorables and would
ship us off to reeducation camps in a DC, second !!!

[hinckley buzzard]

She wrote a book about life love and liberty? She doesn’t know squat about any of the three.

[From The Deer Stand]

Lots of unkind words for that washed up crook.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Exactly. She is the definition of a nasty drunk.

[HYPOCRACY]

Blah blah blah. Unoriginal bitch. We hated her first.
