Hillary's handlers lose control of her mouth
“The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic -- you name it,” Clinton said. “And unfortunately there are people like that. And Trump has lifted them up. He has given voice to their websites that used to only have 11,000 people -- now have 11 million.
Then Hillary blurted even more stupidity with this "you know, just to be grossly generalist, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorable's."
"What’s truly deplorable isn’t just that Hillary Clinton made an inexcusable mistake in front of wealthy donors and reporters "It’s that Clinton revealed just how little she thinks of the hard-working men and women of America.”
What are the high ranking Democrats and the Left leaning MSM going to do with this. How are they going to put this genie back in the bottle ? Hillary has put them in scrabble mode by getting off script and saying what she thinks about Americans who will not cast a vote for her.
Bill Clinton was saying in a speech that Trump's slogan "Make America Great Again" was "speaking in code" for lifting southern whites back up to where they were 50 years ago and putting minorities back where they belong. The only problem with that is, besides it being bull shit is that, Clinton himself, used the exact same phrase when he was running for president. See video below:
Hillary all of a sudden is knowing of websites and the amount of people on those websites. Strangely interesting don't you think. Concussion problem disappears when not talking to the FBI.
Sen. Barack Obama made a similar 2008 comment -that small-town voters "cling to guns or religion,” which Republicans said showed contempt for ordinary Americans.
Democratic primary opponent at the time, Hillary Clinton. She ripped him as "elitist" and cast him as someone who couldn't possibly fathom the concerns of "working, hard-working Americans, white Americans."
What you got to say now Democrat ! Defend her words
Crypto-communist, you know as someone who has actually bothered to study political science, it gets really tiring to listen to people throw around words without actually understanding what they mean.
That, on top of the nonsensical "true Americans" comment (and coming from a non-American no less), and followed up with the nonsensical "true Democrat" quote.
Ahh no, not another cyber graduate in politics making wild, unsubstantiated and unverifiable claims about their qualifications.
These sites are full of graduates in every conceivable subject, sometimes we note nutters who claim to have a dozen or so degrees, depending on the topic in which they're involved.
Who do these dirty little benighted phonies just like you think they're kidding?
You should change your avatar to ''I am Mr.,Bullshit''.
As pointed out to you on previous occasions you are not even sufficiently educated to correctly spell the name of one of the best known and most documented heroes in history. Once again, note and heed well;- Spartacus, no i, no i. Get that through your thick head Mr, Bullshit and write it out 100 times.
The only degree you have is a PhD in bullshit.
True Americans, the W.A.S.P.S., will have to start moving to Canada if ''Medusa the Crazy'' wins the election, and leave the United States to the Mexicans, the Muslims and the blacks to live in their cities such as Detroit and Chicago which they have, predictably turned into third world crime ridden hell holes.
After 9/11 we're all Americans and feel deep concern for the road to destruction down which the Obama regime has led that once great nation.
Non American citizens have absolutely every right to express their opinions in all things American, just as the Americans do do with the affairs of other countries.
Remember Korea?,Vietnam?, Grenada?, and Iraq?,
Of course you do as you will have a degree in history and military studies, right? ROARS OF LAUGHTER FROM THE BACK STALLS.
Try to see yourself as others do. That is an embarrassing fool with no capability of independent thought.
You mean you haven't got a 1st class honours degree in ''White Supremacy''?
Permit me to guide you dear boy, all you have to do is read your history books paying particular attention the inventions and discoveries section and all will become crystal clear.
The Bongo doesn't feature. Get the idea?
That's not 'White Supremacy'', rather it is a substantiated record of how white inventors and innovators created the modern world in which we live.
Slavishly referring to the white man's undeniable superiority as 'White Supremacy' like a parrot does you no favours.
Just as Bongos are superior to the apes so the white man is superior to the Bongo.
That's just how it is.
It's the natural order of things, just as nature intended, natural selection and all that jazz.
There's no point blaming us because Bongos are of the lower orders any more than it is blaming the apes and monkeys for not being as bright as the Bongos.
Where is anyone at - there are like 2 people on...
Why won't you come to the defense of Hillary
Because she can defend herself...
"Last night I was 'grossly generalistic,' and that's never a good idea. I regret saying 'half' — that was wrong. But let's be clear, what's really 'deplorable' is that Donald Trump hired a major advocate for the so-called 'alt-right' movement to run his campaign and that David Duke and other white supremacists see him as a champion of their values. It's deplorable that Trump has built his campaign largely on prejudice and paranoia and given a national platform to hateful views and voices, including by retweeting fringe bigots with a few dozen followers and spreading their message to 11 million people. It's deplorable that he's attacked a federal judge for his 'Mexican heritage,' bullied a Gold Star family because of their Muslim faith, and promoted the lie that our first black president is not a true American. So I won't stop calling out bigotry and racist rhetoric in this campaign. I also meant what I said last night about empathy, and the very real challenges we face as a country where so many people have been left out and left behind. As I said, 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. I'm determined to bring our country together and make our economy work for everyone, not just those at the top. Because we really are 'stronger together.' "
Sorry there Democrat she can't defend herself when she attacks the American people. You and the MSM can try to walk it back but sorry about your luck it won't work this time.
You have come to the assumption as Hillary has that voters in America are white- supremacists because they don't vote Democrat. White-Supremacists are Democrats but don't let history get in your way. Now back to the topic Hillary made a grave mistake with the words she spoke and any twist you Democrats try to make will not take back what she said.
There is no assumption involved. White-supremacists vocally support Donald Trump and the Republican party generally.
don't let history get in your way
You are the one letting history prevent you from seeing the present.
Hillary made a grave mistake
No, she said half of Trump supporters instead of something like too many Trump supporters - a mistake (which she admitted), but certainly not a grave mistake.
It is funny the level of scrutiny applied to each word Hillary says, but Trump lies, mistakes, policy changes, gaffs, etc. don't get any focus because he makes so many of them - only in the Republican bubble can that logic seem credible.
Me and you we going to take a little walk back in time.
Sen. Barack Obama made a similar 2008 comment -that small-town voters "cling to guns or religion,” which Republicans said showed contempt for ordinary Americans. “
Democratic primary opponent at the time, Hillary Clinton. She ripped him as "elitist" and cast him as someone who couldn't possibly fathom the concerns of "working, hard-working Americans, white Americans."
Hillary has just made a fool of herself and you Democrats will fail at every turn on this one.
Clinton's stress response to being demeaned by her own admission of diminished responsibility has now developed into a fully blown case of hysterical psychosis.
In her uncontrollable panic to divert attention away from her own disgraceful conduct with this latest torrent of outlandish accusations she has, in one fell swoop managed to insult millions of Americans.
Her frantic attempt to appeal to the various groups of ethnic minority voters has only served to reveal her deepening psychosis.
This pitiful and crazed lady should retire from the cut and thrust world of politics and take up knitting before she goes totally stark ravening mad.
Sweet William, ( Bill) should have a quiet word in her 'shell like'', and instruct her to get the hell out of politics.
And the Democrats can't spin this enough to try and correct the disdain the woman has shown to the American people that she has for them. Her Elitist status in the world she exists in makes her feel she is above the words she speaks and that no one is listening. How many times can this woman be so wrong.
Let's say that for this election, the voting electorate is about 60% (expected turnout according to a number of pollsters). Of those, somewhere around 41% according to most current polls, give or take a few percentage points. Of that 41%, Hillary insulted half, so 20.5%. That comes to around 40,000,000 (or so), a pretty sizable number.
Now let's take the groups that Trump has insulted. You've got Hispanic immigrants (about 20,000,000), Muslim immigrants (3,500,000), 7th Day Adventists (20,000,000), Iowans (3,100,000), and that's leaving out the more implicit insults, such as towards women, the physically disabled, and Asians.
Now, it's important to remember that what Hillary said was idiotic and elitist. But seriously, when you are rallying behind the most insult-prone candidate in recent United States history, you really don't have any room to be calling her out.
It turns out that this may be the worst presidential election in the history of America. I can't wait for the next embarrassing failure by these worthless candidates. Let's hope it doesn't get worse.
Hillary's comment really wasn't that bad in the grand scheme of American politics. Basically, she said that half of her opponents supporters deserve condemnation.
We've had periods of time in U.S. history where candidates called each other's supporters traitors to the country and challenged each other to the death.
Not only that, but the quote itself is simply an explicit version of the implicit statements both sides have been making this entire debate. Trump's side says Clinton's voters deserve condemnation (The definition of deplorable) for voting for this reason or that reason, and Clintn's side says Trump voters deserve condemnation for this reason or that reason. That's modern American politics 101. The only difference is that instead of listing all of the reasons why she believes they deserve condemnation, she simply expressed it explicitly. It's not smart politics, sure, but for really stupid reasons.
I think it is huge in theory, but in practice it effectively isn't. When Trump goes around talking about "True Americans", he's saying that people who aren't voting for him are un-American. That's effectively the same as explicitly labeling them as such. The same methodology has been used time and time again by the Left and the Right, and there really isn't any effective difference.
He is the worst candidate in the history of the country. Can you give an example of someone who is actually electable?
According to most recent polls, he is electable.
I only see you give Trump as an example though. What kind of stuff are you talking about?
Well yeah, contemporary examples and all that. We could go back further to when people criticized JFK by saying that they wanted to vote for someone they knew they could trust to put America first. Implicitly, what they were saying is that because he was a Catholic, he was probably going to be a traitor that would sell the country out to the Pope.
Or further back than that, when Jefferson's opponent ran as the 'moral, Christian candidate', designed to insinuate that Jefferson was some crazy amoral atheist. If you truly need more examples I can actually take the time to provide more examples and citations, but it's hot out and I'm feeling lazy, so maybe a bit later.

Attacked the candidate. That's what you are supposed to do.
Or further back than that, when Jefferson's opponent ran as the 'moral, Christian candidate', designed to insinuate that Jefferson was some crazy amoral atheist.
We just witness what these extremists think of the middle class hard working Americans. You just got a taste of their eletist arrogance.
As you see, Democrats will defend her no matter how pathetic she is. SHE'S A CRIMINAL! She commited perjury in a court of law during her Benghazi hearings!
She's a criminal and still these morons will vote for her!
It matters not how many sickening statements she makes because Democrats have become an extremist party whereby keeping power and pushing through their socialistic transformation of America IS ALL THAT ,MATTERS!
