Is "basket of deplorables" Hillary's 47% moment?

[Erich Maria Remarque]

No, This is already firing up her base.

Evidence? Twitter/FB likes/Bernie bros don't count!

I mean, red avatars were even more excited after her alt right speech...

Just read it https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=244150

[Erich Maria Remarque]

In the way that it will create a lot of headlines but barely change the dynamics of the race, yes.

Yeah, the only good think for Hillary that it might distract media from EMAILS, LOL

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Hillary just put out this message on facebook:



Kinda looks like a backing down, sorta.    Oh well.

Sh*t I hope media won't cover her "apologies"...

[Erich Maria Remarque]

She really said that only saying "half" was wrong. So Hillary thinks that there is a segment of Trump supporters who are racist and stuff, it just isn't 50%. And she's right, it's much more than that.

Lol, yeah, it is exactly what she meant

[Erich Maria Remarque]

At some point being nice to people who are morally reprehensible will get you no where.  Screw being nice and making those who are deplorable feel bad.  They should feel like sh**t for supporting that.

I guess, you don't understand, how it works.

"Deplorables" won't feel bad/angry. They probably won't even know about Hillary's statement, and if they will, they won't give a f**k.

But some of those, who are not "deplorables" will feel angry/betrayed. If they not already vote for Trump, they miht switch (they probably know a Trump supporter[s ] that is[are] not deplorables. for example). If they already vote for him, it will solidify them as Trump supporters

IMHO

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Well, Clinton only left two choices: bigots or desperate losers.

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Yes. She insulted millions of hardworking, educated, Americans and veterans.

So those people are bigots?

Well, Clinton only left two choices: bigots or desperate losers.

In the other half of her statement, she said:
“That other basket of people 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.”

She left no room for people who support Trump because just don't like or trust her, no room for people who think the government is too big and she'd only make it bigger, no room for people who are opposed to the type of liberal Supreme Court justices she'd choose, etc.  If you support Trump, you're either a bigot or a loser.  Take your pick.

Clinton's remarks might work well on this website, where many red avatars think Trump supporters should be hung for treason (or something like that), anyway, but won't sit well with the American public.  You don't attack all of your opponent's supporters.  That's not fair game.

If thats how you'd like to interpret it.

If Republicans are smart, that's how the comments will be spun, not as an insult to half, but an insult to all.

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Why does Hillary hate married women?

I see, you like to generalize.  Spin on this!

[Erich Maria Remarque]

I have you on ignore, but I saw this quoted and I just want to ask, what are you trying to say? Because whatever it is, it probably won't be good.

As I said: just don't generalize [without going deeper].

Men make up the overwhelming majority of murderers. So if you want to make a racial generalization about blacks, which is what it appears here, the same logic can equally apply to men in general as well.

LOL, I was implying exactly the opposite.

I think, that Beet were trying to generalize by linking to a video...

Trump Jr posted this image on FB

6. Trump has done away with courtesies of the recent decades and his supporters love it. Well, I view my role here as educational. I am performing, of course and I am being nasty and offensive. I do this for a reason. You have insisted on taking away the veneer of civilization that has maintained peace. Well, live with it. Smell the urine. Alas, unless we collectively recoil, soon we all will be smelling blood.

You really think you are, don't you?
Being stupid = being stupid. No more, no less

Yes, I am scared. And I am screaming.

[Erich Maria Remarque]

I am a solid conservative, who believes in the traditional right of vigorous violent protest, yes.

But, unlike you, I dislike murder and murderers.

I see, your masculinity has recovered after... you know what

Keep update us!

[Erich Maria Remarque]

In a race with such an unprecedented amount of mudslinging, this is fairly tame. I miss when "47%" and "Binders of women" were race-losing scandals.

I mean, this is just a transition. A transition to actual shooting.

In 30-40 years, if still alive, we will be recalling this as the last months of peace.

You sound as if Syria is our immediate future...

It is.

If you think it is not in Russia, you are sadly mistaken.

Would you teach me to be that annoying, master

Apocalipsice, lol!

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Would this LittleBig ....person be here if Clinton was running a better campaign?

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Would you teach me to be that annoying, master

You will not live long enough to get to my level

Longer than you, for sure, so I have plenty of time

It is not the matter of time alone: you also need a brain.

Yeah, but we, Trump'ish people, have a very good brain! Didn't you listen to your next president?

[Erich Maria Remarque]

ag, what will be your reaction if Trump is reelected in 2020?

Heart attack

[Erich Maria Remarque]

ag, what will be your reaction if Trump is reelected in 2020?

I do not, generally, follow electoral type events.

The events follow you, lol

[Erich Maria Remarque]

[Erich Maria Remarque]

They look sad. Maybe rabid.

It is a sweet silent majority

[Erich Maria Remarque]

Has anyone of Atlas greatest experts, who predicted that "basket of deplorables" will help Clinton, changed his or her mind?

[Erich Maria Remarque]

But you know what is the funniest and most ironical here?

That we probably don't see the full effect of her remark.

Yeah, this should increase share of Shy Trump voters (may be considerably). It might be canceled out by underestimation of Hispanic voters or some other stuff, but... yeah, don't be shocked on election day. Don't be shocked

[Erich Maria Remarque]

As of right now, I kind of hope that it is, because that means that Trump's current numbers are his high water mark.

You mean that it will just fade away? If it was impro, may be, but it was a prepared remark. In front of wealthy donors. And then Hillary kind of doubled down it
