Okay, Hill, yeah there's an argument to be made.
But she didn't stop there saying that these "deplorables" include sexists, racists, homophobes, xenophobes, islamaphobes and the like. She prefaced it by saying that she was going to be "grossly generalistic" in calling out the bigotry in the trump campaign. But she continued to say that this half of trump supporters are "irredeemable" and "not America". I must reiterate, there's an argument to be made, just not be a presidential candidate. Trump took this insult in stride and ran to go tell mom and dad what Hillary did saying "Wow, Hillary Clinton was SO INSULTING to my supporters, millions of amazing hard working people. I think it will cost her at the polls!" Meanwhile, Trump doesn't work about cost because he knows he has enough money to cover it. Trumps running mate Mike Pence said that these Americans deserve Hillarys' respect. Hillary tactfully retracted her statement and apologized for it.
But one final jab from the trump campaign stung right before the situation blew over with Trump encouraging Americans to fight back with a "contribution of 100$,65$,50$,25,15$ or even 5$ to elect Donald Trump to the White House."
It's wrong to generalize Americans and call them deplorables and say that a valid political opponent is just an avenue for bigotry. However, that's the most deplorable thing of all. Trump and trickle up system just to get more influence.
