Clinton was speaking at an LGBT fundraiser in New York City Friday night when she described those supporters as "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic — you name it." But she stressed that the rest of the Republican nominee's supporters are people who feel let down by the government and the economy and are "just desperate for change," and said those people need sympathy.

Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway quickly responded on Twitter, writing, "One day after promising to be aspirational & uplifting, Hillary insults millions of Americans."

Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill tweeted that Clinton was referring to "alt-right" voters who "appear to make up half his crowd."(continued)

“alt right” is a Clinton fabrication.

Apparently it hasn’t occurred to her that no matter how detestable she believes the conservative perception of Trump may be, she is considered to be a vastly inferior alternative. Perhaps it’s just another sign of rapidly deteriorating cognitive abilities.

"racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic — you name it."

If there's a name for it, liberals point their bony fingers and use it.

Trump should tie this outburst to Hillary’s hobnobbing with all the one percenters. Such an approach can deepen voters mistrust of Hillary and confirm that she is lying about her concern for the working class.

Did they weigh in on it? Like it, or not like it?

We may be deplorable but we are not political pay-for-play whores.

Hillary's first of many political queefs! So rank it would choke a maggot. Or cause unstoppable coughing?

The phobics are coming for you!

Will Hillary apologize? I think should demand that Hillary apologize to the American people.

I tend to think liberals have a contagion of thinking the same way for decades.

Sen Dirksen (R) Illinois once expressed what I would consider the Democratic position today.

I often think of the lady who went to the Governor of a certain state and said to him, “Governor, I want to get my husband out of prison.”

He said, “What is he in prison for?”

She said, “For stealing a ham.”

The Governor asked her: “Is he a good husband?”

“No, sir.”

The Governor asked her: “Is he good to the children?”

“No, sir, Governor.”

Then the Governor asked her, “Well, why do you want to get him out of prison?”

She said, “Because we are out of ham again.” [Laughter.]

Well, I wonder when we are going to run out of ham one of these days. I mean not only money, but confidence as well.

[Congressional Record, June 2?, 1962, p. 12156]

You said it! The first thing they do is start calling people that don’t agree with them racist and a lot of other words I can’t even pronounce while they are 100 times worse. Half the voters in this country can’t all be women hating racist bigots. We have been called racist, and worse, for the last 8 years (at least) whenever we don’t agree with the Dems and I’m sick of it!

Lately, Bill Clinton has casually referred to Southerners as racist, mocked the “coal people” and now Hillary has slammed half the country as “deplorables”.

Both Bill and Hillary must think that they are back in junior high, where that kind of slurring strategy is used.
