Clinton: Half of Trump supporters are in 'basket of deplorables'

a reply to: ketsuko

I'm not a Trump supporter, but.................I am deplorable , so.................where can I get the T-Shirt?

She's not attacking real people, but the little straw men in her mind, much like the anti-Trump crowd are prone to do. There is nothing to be upset about here.

Considering the economic conditions, international standings, social issues, and security concerns in our present situation, I would say that's a positive.

But thank you for the clarification. May I humbly suggest that it would be easier for all to understand if in the future you used words that more effectively and accurately communicate your intent?

Words are generally put in quotes for a reason.

As I did with "legitimate".

I am not responsible for your assumption.

I'm posting this in case some people don't know what deplorable means. Remember this is what you are saying about your fellow man whom you have never met.

I stand corrected.

Your use of 'gay' is probably what got your last one removed. There's a line. You're new. You will learn where the line is and how to avoid it.

ATTENTION

Once again, because apparently this bears repeating, this is NOT the MUD PIT.

We don't have to agree, but we can disagree in a more civil manner. Is it really that hard?

Posts removed as political trollery automatically count as TWO warnings.

Those of you who continue to flout these reminders will find your posting privileges suspended. So, if you would rather spend your time on ATS posting, it is strongly recommended that you heed this reminder. Besides the virtual paperwork on the staff side is tedious. So, please, let's not go there.

As usual, do NOT reply to this post.

I never said anything about polls. I'm talking about the Democrat's wearing the Black Vote like a feather in their pimp hat. As if entitled to it. As if they deserve it (they DONT).

That's pretty degrading that you are calling blacks Democrat's hoes....that is coming out of YOUR mouth...not democrats.

Most blacks are Democrats...deal with it.

a reply to: kruphix

Actually, that's from the er a leader of the New Black Panthers. I just reiterated it.



PS: My "As if they deserve it (they DONT)." statement is multifaceted. The Dem's dont deserve their votes, and the blacks don't deserve what the Dem's have done to them. Just look at all the Dem city and the conditions they've built for the black community. To then turn around and call their opposition all this ugly stuff?!?!? Talk about degradation ACROSS THE BOARD from the Dem's.

The Democrat's should be renamed the Degradationist's.

They'll report on her remarks as the truth, not an insult.

Remember, for some people in the US, Romney's remarks represent a certain facet of the truth too, but the press reported on what he said as a horrible slander.

So the question is: Does the press cover her remarks as a gaffe worthy of ridicule like they covered Romney's remarks or do they merely report it as truth and move on ... nothing to see here, she's only saying what we all know is self-evidently true?

Well.. if this forum and other social media are an indication, Hillary has achieved what she wanted. She's stolen the headlines and spotlight from TRUMP for a day or two. She's also awoken a lot of Democrats from their passive slumber.

We'll soon read and hear, "Well it's about time!"...and "Hillary is becoming a true leader!" from the liberal press and talking heads. Yet all Hillary has done is emulate an aspect of Trump that she, and the media have harshly criticized him for over the past year.

He's running as a politician with no political history.

Not just a politician, but for the highest political position in America.

So only annointed insiders get to go at it, eh?

Look what forever of that has done for things.
