> Clinton called some of them "deplorables" and there was such hue and cry

I think this was Hillary's single biggest mistake. It was exactly what they were waiting for -- the "Washington Elite" telling them they were less than. It gave the outsiders a rallying call.

It definitely was a bad move. I can't say I disagree with the sentiment, but it was not a smart thing to say.

That sounds like you think getting caught saying something like that was the issue, not the comment itself.

It's not the first time she's used language like that to refer to Trump's supporters. She was saying things like that repeatedly, in smaller audiences, throughout the campaign. I'm convinced she said it because deep down she's an elitist who really doesn't give a damn about anything besides money and power.

I think a lot of Trump supporters are actually deplorable. I base this on their actions and their words. It's not good to say so, and especially not when you're running for high office, but that's what I mean when I say I don't disagree with the sentiment.

Quite possibly.
