Hillary Clinton caught a lot crap when she PROPERLY identified the magats and said this...
"..."To just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic—you name it".
Despite the fact it is identifying the SAME point made by Trump when he said this...
"'I Could ... Shoot Somebody, And I Wouldn't Lose Any Voters'..."
What Trump identified early was a hard core part of his base was so deplorable that he could murder someone in cold blood, in full view of his magats and it would change nothing for them. Thus he could be racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, islamaphobic, protect groomers and pedophiles, go full NeoCon, be anti 2A, etc, etc... and nothing would change.
Trump was right. Hillary was right. Bipartisan agreement and a cleared eye view, many of the rest of us missed about how deplorable a percentage of the population is.
