    Just a rough estimate, if 1/2 of the people are for Trump and 1/2 of those are "deplorable" + (everything else she says about them here):



    Nice! - Coming from one who adopted the slogan "Stronger Together".

    Was a rather stupid thing to say. But she did identify who she meant; racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic,. After all the trouble Romney got into in 2012 you would think that a politician would steer a wide path around any such comment.

    Yes, she stupidly spoke her true mind, and yes, indeed she did "identify" her belief that 1/4 of the nation's people to be deplorable and have these traits in hopes for her own personal gain. Can anyone deny the division she casts here?

    Huh. Well you know it wasn't always considered 'xenophobic' to enforce our borders.

    Bill Clinton, in his 1996 State of the Union address, spoke of the importance of making the border secure:
    "But there are some areas that the federal government should not leave and should address and address strongly. One of these areas is the problem of illegal immigration. After years of neglect, this administration has taken a strong stand to stiffen the protection of our borders. We are increasing border controls by 50 percent. We are increasing inspections to prevent the hiring of illegal immigrants. And tonight, I announce I will sign an executive order to deny federal contracts to businesses that hire illegal immigrants."

    Those were important words spoken by Hillary's husband. I guess nowadays she considers them to be 'xenophobic'.

    I think she was way harsher on Trump's supporters than either Romney or Obama was. They were at least trying to understand their opponent's point of view in their remarks but all Hillary did was to call them names.

    Stupid mistake on her part, and she's anything but stupid. She ought to know the point is to get voters undecided or soft Trump on her side and insulting them is no way to go about it. "The other basket" people can't be sure of if Hillary thinks they are in the xenophobic, racist, Islamophobic, sexist, homophobic, whatever basket.

    Most of Trump's primary opponents made the same mistake of insulting his supporters - they're "uneducated", "angry' and look what happened there. But Hillary played every card she could think of here and it looks like she's still drawing dead.

    My guess is that Hillary didn't think her words would get out to the general public. Her comments about Trump's "deplorables" were made at a LGBT event in lower Manhattan.

    Now that she's stepped in her own *$#@, let her fall in it.

    She's an elitest. We've always know that. Just didn't expect her to actually admit it. It would be a 47% moment if she wasn't Hillary. It will go away soon and never be spoke of again by the media.

    It's amazing that Hillary has such knowledge of all these people's hearts. She must be a prophet from God. Hillary is not a good person that said a stupid insensitive thing, she has an extensive record of lies and false accusations against anyone who stands in her way of self gratification.

    Hillary just told on herself. Her attitude toward anyone who does not support her extremist views is just as she said.

    So , he and Hillary are in disagreement. Of course , we all know her "apology" is insincere and she said what she really feels. The only thing Kaine is telling us is that he agrees with her and knows her apology is worthless.
