COULD HILLARY TELL US WHAT PERCENTAGE OF MUSLIMS ARE 'DEPLORABLE'?September 14, 2016It wasn't just the well-heeled donors at the Cipriani Club who laughed and applauded when Hillary called half of Trump's supporters a "basket of deplorables" -- "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic.”Her campaign advisers also thought it was a killer line. This wasn't an off-the-cuff remark captured on a bartender's cellphone. We know that because: (1) nothing is ever off-the-cuff with Hillary; (2) it was part of her scripted remarks, and (3) she's used it before.Nor did anyone in the media mind one little bit. They've been calling Trump's supporters racists for more than a year now. Calling other people "racist" is the media's favorite thing to do.Whenever the left talks about "racism," it has nothing to do with what's good or bad for black people. It's just another event in the Fabulous White People competition, where black people are the chips.There was a period in this country when racism was a big problem. Unfortunately, when it mattered, liberals were on the wrong side. Only when the principal danger facing most black Americans was that they'd be patronized to death, did liberals start seeing "racism" everywhere.Sad people with meaningless lives were suddenly empowered to condemn other people. I beat you in blacks yesterday; I'm going to beat you in women today. This is what makes them feel superior to other people, especially other white people. It's not about racism, sexism, homophobia, etc.; it's just a self-actualization movement for people with emotional issues.The dead giveaway is that all the hacks on the left are using the same jokes. Compare the opening lines of James Kirchick of the New York Daily News and Dana Milbank of The Washington Post in their columns on Hillary's "basket of deplorables" insult: Read More At: http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2016-09-14.html#read_more
Trump's appeal is racialist, just as Hillary's is. Hillary gins up support by appealing the tribal solidarity of blacks and other ethnic and religious minorities, and Trump does the same damn thing by appealing to the tribal solidarity of uneducated whites (and, to a more cynical extent, evangelical Christians). The conservative view that we be judged on our merits as individuals is alien to both Trump and Clinton. All that's different is each candidate's view of the "deplorables".
Ann Coulter really is on mark here. Reagan was maligned, Romney was maligned, Bush was maligned. She addresses this here. Trump is now showing he has a lot of JFK, Lincoln, Reagan, Churchill and Thatcher in him.
