Clinton's 'Deplorables' Comment Show Disdain for Working People, Trump Camp Says

Hillary Clinton's comments at a star-studded fundraiser in New York City that half of Donald Trump's supporters are a "basket of deplorables" are getting slammed by the Trump campaign as a sign of "how little she thinks of the hard-working men and women of America."

GOP vice presidential candidate Mike Pence told a forum of social conservatives Saturday that Clinton's comments display a lack of respect for the millions of people who support Donald Trump for president.

Trump's supporters "are not a 'basket' of anything," Pence said at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C.

"The truth of the matter is that the men and women who support Donald Trump's campaign are hard-working Americans, farmers, coal miners, teachers, veterans, members of our law enforcement community, members of every class of this country who know that we can make America great again," he said.

"They are Americans and they deserve your respect," Pence added, as if addressing Clinton directly.

Trump himself wrote on Twitter on Saturday that Clinton "was so insulting to my supporters" and that her comments "will cost her at the polls."

The Trump campaign's senior communication adviser, Jason Miller, said Clinton's remarks told "the American public that she could care less about them."

"Tonight’s comments were more than another example of Clinton lying to the country about her emails, jeopardizing our national security, or even calling citizens 'super-predators,'" Miller said in a statement late Friday. "This was Clinton, as a defender of Washington’s rigged system – telling the American public that she could care less about them."

Milled added, "What’s truly deplorable isn’t just that Hillary Clinton made an inexcusable mistake in front of wealthy donors and reporters happened to be around to catch it, it’s that Clinton revealed just how little she thinks of the hard-working men and women of America."

Trump's campaign manager Kellyanne Conway slammed Clinton on Twitter for "placing people in 'baskets'" and insulting "millions of Americans."

Clinton made the comment Friday night 9/9 at the LGBT For Hillary Gala.


:popcorn:

Didn't Huma and Hillary originally meet at that GALA?

Dump Trump.

Thread is about Clinton's description of a percentage of his followers which was extremely accurate.

As with everything Trump, he never responds to any thing, just turns it into a counter attack....well suited to lead, huh

" has been about testing the limits of his fans’ loyalty and public tolerance for bigotry, threats, and lies. The Republican Party and the media have repeatedly failed this test. GOP leaders have criticized him but most refuse to retract their endorsements. Some journalists have apologized for their role in promoting Trump during the primaries, and many now critique him harshly, but you can still find his former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski spouting racist birther theories as a paid commentator on CNN. And despite a phenomenal meltdown, Trump still maintains his fan base as well as institutional support."

So 30 million are racists? Glad you agree.

"Above all, Trump supporters are “not politically correct,” which, as far as I can tell, means that they have a particular aversion to that psychological moment when, having thought something, you decide that it is not a good thought, and might pointlessly hurt someone’s feelings, and therefore decline to say it."


Who Are All These Trump Supporters? - The New Yorker

Typical remark and why she is correct.

Are you kidding? How childish of you.

Man can you hear the vacuum from the sucking!!!!!!!
Pull the string in the neck of the doll response....AGAIN!

You know, why the discussion...of course she is right..just consider...

EVERY SINGLE WHITE SUPREMICIST GROUP SUPPORTS HIM.
EVERY SINGLE ISOLATIONIST GROUP SUPPORTS HIM
EVERY SINGLE ANTI HISPANIC GROUP SUPPORTS HIM
EVERY SINGLE CONSPIRACY WEB SITE AND FOLLOWERS SUPPORT HIM

Just in Jose groups alone, you could make a case.

while I think the comment is totally inappropriate many things in this election has been said that come from left field and are hurtful about looks, gender, race you name it, look at the names she has been called just on this forum alone,maybe she's tapped into this site there are an awful lot of voters in the Villages.

"WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — Hillary Clinton said she regrets describing Donald Trump supporters as a “basket of deplorables.”

In a statement Saturday, Clinton said that, “many of Trump’s supporters are hard-working Americans who just don’t feel like the economy or our political system are working for them.”

She said she was “grossly generalistic” in her remarks at the LGBT fundraiser in New York Friday and, she added, “that’s never a good idea.”

But she said she regrets only half of her statement, emphasizing that it is “really deplorable” that Trump is affiliated with people from the right-winged “alt-right movement,” and that “David Duke and other white supremacists see him as a champion of their values.”

Trump would have most certainly had done this same thing had he insulted American heroes, gold star families, sitting judges, religions or ethnic groups.

I am sure

He could have said, "half of Hillarys supporters are police killers, black militants, commies, entitlement freaks, gays, lesbians and fag hags."

But Trump is a stand up guy, he knows that would not be nice or accurate. Its not half, It's about 99% and the other 1% are the super rich.

Trump is too nice to say it but most of Hillary's followers are "haters." They move about saying this person "hates" and that person is a "hater" and that anyone that disagrees with them are haters. So, their labels are no longer liberals, but "haters" due to their constant misuse of the term. It's time to recognize Hillary and her followers for what they are. She says older white people and millennials are hateful and deplorable, so she is a "hater." I included Millennials because many of them are conservative and Trump supporters. So, I suppose the poster above is correct, that Hillary considers The Villagers "deplorable." Hillary is showing more and more how inconsiderate she is to American citizens. She endorses BLM, Occupy Wall St miscreants, Black Panthers, Illegal Aliens and yes, even rapists. She also is against law enforcement and hates the military. And yes, those words came directly from Chelsea Clinton when they were in the White House. Our Military Intelligence Officers from over at DIA were told not to wear their uniforms when they came over to give the morning briefing because the Clintons didn't like seeing them. It is unfortunate that the one that wishes to lead the military "hates" the military.

So very true...:bigbow:

This site certainly validates what Clinton said

Says the entitlement freak?

Hillary supporters consist of:

The gay community
Occupy Wall St
Black Lives Matter
Black Panthers
Criminals and ExCons
Soros - nuff said
Middle East terrorist countries
Big Business/Wall St
Atheists
feminists
And welfare recipients

Does this in itself make her a bad person? NO! What makes her a bad person is her evil deeds, corruption. Who supports her does not make her the person she is. She has done that all by herself.

And her credibility is based on being the historically biggest liar in this century. What does that say about anyone that believes anything she says? Even her supporters say she is a liar and they don't trust her. They are only voting for her because they are either scared of her, or they are stupid enough to think she might care what happens to them.

This is going to be fun the next 60 days coming up.

The next cliff hanger is the upcoming Wikileaks :coolsmiley:

Hillary could literally rob a bank, shoot your mother on the way out, steal a getaway car and then hit a child during her getaway and the liberals on here would say, that hasn't been proven. It's all a right wing conspiracy. The money in the back seat of the stolen car parked in front of her home, with blood on the bumper and Hillary asleep in the driver's seat is not evidence of her guilt. She has not been indicted and convicted, therefore she is not guilty.

She has already done worse.

Her nic name should be teflon

He has done an incredible amount of damage already with respect to foreign opinion of the United States. It is like putting one of those Jackass actors in the role as troll for President.

ok, i'll bite, what damage did he do?

I'm confused which 1/2 of the basket of deplorables does Trump fall into?

If any democrat had said what that draft dodger had said about John McCain you wingnuts would have gone berserk. The religious right is backing this pos, give me a break.

The McCain comment was totally off base, ****ed me off, he did finally say he regretted it.

As to the draft he had a deferment, how can that be argued in the negative.

The minority vote is reluctantly noted!

Well he was such a sweet child thatches parents sent him to military school, does that count NOT. I've seen all of his speeches are you referring to his comment on "I've said things that were hurtful"? Never did he say John McCain I'm sorry! not the nature of the beast. Speaking of beasts, I think he is the Anti Christ. So that means we will only have 7 years of trouble!

A basket of deplorables. How apt - for the basket cases that vote for tRump.


Hillary 2016

Everyone knows that liberals are atheists, so your credibility at knowing anything Biblical is quite lacking.

And that statement just cost her the election, unless Trump does a one up on her.

Vote Trump

WTF

You don't read much!!!!

"Now, one of the things that I have learned about Hillary Clinton is that one of her heroes, her mentors was Saul Alinsky. And her senior thesis was about Saul Alinsky. This was someone she greatly admired and let me tell you something about Saul Alinsky," Carson said.

"He wrote a book called Rules for Radicals. It acknowledges Lucifer, the original radical who gained his own kingdom. Now think about that. This is our nation where our founding document, the Declaration of Independence talks about certain inalienable rights that come from our creator, a nation where our Pledge of Allegiance says we are ‘One nation under God.’ This is a nation where every coin in our pockets and every bill in our wallet says, ‘In God We Trust.’ So are we willing to elect someone as president who has as their role model somebody who acknowledges Lucifer? Think about that."

Poll finds 18 percent of voters believe Hillary Clinton has 'ties to Lucifer'

Hillary Clinton must have another private server to hide her emails to Satan according to the 18 percent of voters in a recent poll who believe the Democratic nominee for president has "ties to Lucifer."

The Public Policy Polling poll of 1,276 likely voters nationwide found that 18 percent of them believed that Clinton is friendly with the Lord of the Flies. Another 21 percent were "not sure," probably pending clouds of locusts emerging from her mouth.

Don't know.

I do know the alternative did more than acknowledge Lucifer. He patterned his life after him.

And Barry and Michelle Obama's university papers are too racist to ever release.

A couple whose pastor, mentor, best friend for 20 years was the ultimate racist reverend wright.
