In an article posted in another thread, a line went: 'Comments in 2016 that some of Trump’s supporters fit in a “basket of deplorables,” a line the Republican then used against her repeatedly during the final stretch of the campaign."

Do these POS not prove her correct every day? Look at how they behave. Look what they cheer on.

She was being 'presidential'. These 'deplorables' are real pieces of shit. Honestly.
