Clinton: Only Mental Cripples and Madmen Support Trump

Calls half of Trump supporters misogynists, Xenophobes, Sexists and racists.

Well it looks like Hillary finally had her Mitt Romney 47% moment. Mitt Romney famously said that a quarter of all Americans don't really matter (see below). Tonight, Hillary Clinton said that half of Trump supporters are Xenophobes, racists, misogynists, sexists and other "deplorable basket" types.

Hillary may be concerned because she appears to be losing momentum and national polls. She came out of the conventions of full 12 points ahead of Republican challenger Donald Trump. But now, the heir to Barack Obama is only 2 to 4 points ahead of trump in certain key battleground states, such as Virginia, Colorado, Minnesota, and even Pennsylvania.

From CNN; Hillary Clinton told an audience of donors Friday night that half of Donald Trump's supporters fall into "the basket of deplorables," meaning people who are racist, sexist, homophobic or xenophobic.

In an effort to explain the support behind Trump, Clinton went on to describe the rest of Trump supporters as people who are looking for change in any form because of economic anxiety and urged her supporters to empathize with them.

In an article entitled five reasons Hillary Clinton is blowing it, the website politico.com says With two months to go before the presidential election, a major poll released Tuesday morning (CNN/ORC) revealed that the "prohibitive favorite" (Clinton) is down by 2 points nationally to one of the worst presidential candidates since the advent of the indoor flush toilet: Donald J. Trump.

This is a breathtaking moment. Mrs. Clinton has been running for president for 25 years nonstop. And she is about to be beaten by a novice, an amateur, a man who speaks at a fourth grade level. Yes, she is losing a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

When we wake up on November 9, wondering whether Mr. Trump will wear the fake tan to his inauguration, remember that Clinton, like Marie and one at before her, said that from the perspective of the elite, The people can eat cake if they have no bread.

Yes she has just insulted the very Donald Trump supporters she needs to win over. Stay tuned, this could get interesting.

Notes: In September 2012, video surfaced of Romney speaking before a group of supporters in which he stated that 47 percent of the nation pays no income tax, are dependent on the federal government, see themselves as victims, and will support President Obama unconditionally. Romney went on to say: "And so my job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

After facing criticism about the tone and accuracy of these comments, he at first characterized them as "inelegantly stated", then a couple of weeks later commented: "I said something that's just completely wrong." Exit polls published following the election showed that voters never saw Romney as someone who cared about people like them.

She is not 'air' to the Obama throne, nor is she 'heir'.
