Hillary Clinton said half of Donald Trump’s supporters belong in a “basket of deplorables.” She said they were "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic."
And just like that, she lost the racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic voting bloc. Can she really afford to write off these deplorables? In a close presidential race, it can’t hurt to have a few deplorables on your side.
Someone said Clinton’s description of Trump supporters as "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic" was actually a description of Donald Trump. But is that accurate?
Is Trump racist? At one of his rallies, Trump pointed to a black man and said, "Oh, look at my African-American over here. Look at him." Does that sound racist? He said “my African-American.” How can he be racist if he has his own African-American?
Is Trump sexist? Admittedly he has said some ugly things about women, such as Carly Fiorina couldn’t get votes because of her face, or when he called women “bimbos” and said breastfeeding was “disgusting”. There are too many insults for me to list here. However, if you’re interested, you can find a list of Trump’s insults to women on this page. It’s a long page.
