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

At least half of Trump's supporters are racist so I am not sure what is so controversial about this statement. About half of Republicans supported him in the primary when they had other choices. I can understand there are many Republicans who can't support Clinton but they are in the other category. At least half of the people supporting Trump are racists who just want their country back from the non-whites. Great Americans, they are. Anyone who isn't white isn't really American.

And you know this how?

I think the better word is bigot. The people who supported Trump in the primaries are bigots, plain and simple. People who support Trump's candidacy not because they hate Hillary because they like what he says, are bigots.

You seem to think that you are not a bigot. I am here to tell you that you are. You have in the past said that some people are not fit to be immigrants to America. I questioned you on it but you never responded back. America's history is defined by immigration here by Europeans. So why exactly can people not of European background not immigrate here? I can understand opposing illegal immigration as well as supporting limits on the level of immigration. But when you imply that certain people can't immigrate here because of how they look, or the faith that they practice, you are being a bigot. And half of Trump's supporters are most certainly bigots.

When I heard about the Mitt 47% speech in 2012 I was very disappointed and upset about it.  It was a terrible decision to even give this speech, and this speech should never have been made.

Mitt's statements and Mitt himself deserved to be criticized and condemned for sure, and they were, relentlessly, but I personally do not believe that Mitt's statements were degrading or vitriolic and were certainly not hateful like the statements made by Hillary about certain sectors of the American public.

Lincoln Republican,
Why is it I have to keep driving the same huge chisel in your head.
She is specifically calling individuals that are racist, sexist, homophobic, bigots, etc as the scum of our society.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THAT ? !
What do you want us to call these people ... Angels ? Heroes ? Excellent people that we should be proud of and need more of ?
Why are you defending low level filth that unfortunately reside within our nation ? I don't understand you.
Clinton is not calling ALL trump supporters "deplorables." She is not even calling 50% of them deplorables (after she corrected herself). In the same initial speech she gave, she even made room for, and discussed, the other segment of trump supporters who are not in "the basket."
Have you read the transcript or watched the full video of her initial speech ? If not, do so, before you begin to spew more ignorance about the topic.

There's nothing "moderate" about you.

Do you think you are some great moderate? Because you voted for Obama? You are a bigot who thinks not all people are fit to be Americans, even if that is what they want in their heart, because of their background. You support a person who thinks Mexicans are rapists and all Muslims should be suspected of being terrorists. Do you think that is moderate?
