Dem operatives fume after Hillary disses Trump voters
By Bob Fredericks March 14, 2018

Democratic operatives have an urgent message for Hillary Clinton: Please shut up and go away.

Their fury and frustration were fueled by boasts she made in India over the weekend while hawking her new book, “What Happened,” that “advanced” states with better economies and smarter people voted for her.

Backward red states with lousy economies, on the other hand, went for Donald Trump, according to her latest analysis, The Hill reported.

“I won the places that represent two-thirds of America’s gross domestic product. I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward,” she said.

“If you look at the map of the United States, there is all that red in the middle, places where Trump won,” the former first lady said at the India Today Conclave in Mumbai.

“I win the coast. I win, you know, Illinois and Minnesota, places like that.”

Trump’s campaign “was looking backwards,” she added, before dissing Trump supporters as a bunch of racist Cro-Magnons.

“You didn’t like black people getting rights, you don’t like women, you know, getting jobs. You don’t want, you know, see that Indian-American succeeding more than you are. Whatever your problem is, I’m going to solve it,” said Clinton, describing her version of Trump’s “MAGA” message.

She also said that women who voted for Trump were too dumb to make up their own minds, and had been brainwashed by “ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should.”

Weary Democrats said they had had enough, and that her clueless comments were reminiscent of her description in the campaign of many Trump supporters as a “basket of deplorables,” a slur that cemented her image as an out-of-touch Beltway elitist.

“She’s annoying me. She’s annoying everyone, as far as I can tell. Who lets her say these things?” a 2016 Clinton surrogate told the website.

“If these statements are a form of catharsis, it would be in the Democratic Party’s best interest for her to get these out of her system soon. We need leaders like her to look forward to 2020 and how to unify the party, not continue to re-litigate the past,” a former White House aide to President Barack Obama added.

Democrats griped that her comments would make it tougher for Democrats in swing states because they would likely be called on to respond to her disparaging remarks.

“She put herself in a position where [Democrats] from states that Trump won will have to distance themselves from her even more,” another former Clinton aide told the website. “That’s a lot of states.”

Predictably, gleeful Republicans seized on her polarizing comments.

“At the RNC, we try not to continue to focus on Hillary Clinton. We really do try very hard,” Mike Reed, a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, said in an email to reporters. “But this one is impossible to ignore.”

Clinton beat Trump in the popular vote by nearly 3 million ballots, but lost the presidency in a stunning Electoral College upset.

I believe Clinton won Cali by more than 3 Million votes...so if Cali Seceded..they have their President...they can keep her...along with Pelosi and Waters...LMAO
