WHY IT MATTERS
On Friday You Said One Half Of Trump’s Supporters Are “Deplorable” And The Other Half Have Been Duped To Believe The Government Had Let Them Down. “Consider the reaction over the weekend to Mrs. Clinton’s comments Friday night that ‘just to be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the ‘basket of deplorables.’’ … Yet the rest of what she said was almost as insulting. She said Mr. Trump’s other supporters are ‘people who feel that the government has let them down, the economy has let them down, nobody cares about them, nobody worries about what happens to their lives and their futures, and they’re just desperate for change. It doesn’t really even matter where it comes from. They don’t buy everything he says, but he seems to hold out some hope that their lives will be different. They won’t wake up and see their jobs disappear, lose a kid to heroin, feel like they’re in a dead-end. Those are people we have to understand and empathize with as well.’”(Editorial, “Clinton And The ‘Deplorables’,” Wall Street Journal, 9/11/16)
Wall Street Journal: “So She Thinks Half Of Mr. Trump’s Voters Are Loathsome Bigots And The Other Half Are Losers And Dupes Who Deserve Democratic Pity.” (Editorial, “Clinton And The ‘Deplorables’,” Wall Street Journal, 9/11/16)
we only hear half her comment ,the other half is even more insulting.
