To those now critical of Hillary's remarks about women who voted for Trump:

33. What potential voters will it turn off?

If at this point, a voter is still so shaky that they could be tempted to vote for Trump again because of something Hillary Clinton said, they aren't likely to vote Democratic and we need to stop wasting our time on them and focus on people who are likely to cast an intelligent vote.

What is is with this ass-kissing of Trump voters. Politicians on both sides - and their supporters and even people right here on DU - go around speaking their truth and, in so doing, risk offending all kinds of people. But for some reason, the very thought of maybe possibly offending voters who voted for an ignorant racist and STILL aren't sure whether they're going to vote for him again has you shaking in your boots.

It's ridiculous. And while people are wringing their hands worrying about offending these deplorables, they seem not to care in the least that this solicitude toward people who represent such a serious threat to people of color deeply offends me and people like me.
