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.

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

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

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