[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump has called women fat pigs and dogs, but it's a travesty for Clinton to say some of Trump's supporters are racists?  Talk about a double standard![/quote]

You can argue all you want that it's okay to call half of Trumps supporters deplorable.  The lack of respect for hard working people will hurt her with voters.  Whether or not it's a great comment or completely justified, it shouldn't have come from a potential leader of our nation.[/quote]

She did not disrespect any hard working Americans. She deplored the bigots. Now are you telling me a bigot who is hard working can't be deplored for being a bigot and appreciated for being a hard worker. These are different qualities and mutually exclusive. It's like saying racists shouldn't be called out because they are hard working. Come on now, already.[/quote]

[b]People have gone out of their way to say if you support Trump, you're a bigot.[/b]  People will not hear your point. What they will hear is disrespect for half of Americans.  Nice try, but this is an emotional issue, not logical.  It makes her look very bad, very elitist, and playing the same divide and hate game Trump plays.  I was hoping for better.[/quote]

Bigot: a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions.

There are a LOT of bigots on both sides of the aisle. See it here and elsewhere all the time. Intolerance is a cancer in any society and it's continued growth in our nation is frightening.[/quote]

You know, ordinarily I would agree with you.  If this was an ordinary campaign, with Mitt Romney or Jeb or Paul Ryan, I would be like, yeah, that's right!

But this is not an ordinary year.

Trump is not a candidate that we should tolerate.  He is a sexist, racist, xenophobic buffoon and a charlatan who lies constantly and who has dragged our political discourse down the toilet with the help of the media.  I have no idea what is wrong with the people who would support someone like this.  This is a massive failure on the part of our educational system.[/quote]

Not tolerating Trump is fine. Broadly insulting citizens who have a different opinion than you is not fine.  Its not fine from a trump, it's not fine from HRC.  It's a bad political move from the candidate who was supposed to be a centrist alternative.[/quote]
