Trump's "shithole" comment has underscored Hillary's "deplorable" one.

Because I see Trump’s hardcore base doing all they can to justify his comments, most frequently with something as simple as “He’s right.”

Many wondered why someone like her, who usually carefully chooses her words and thinks about the impact, would say something like that. It was controversial. But I always thought that what she did was very important. When you read some comments on platforms like YouTube, you see these supremacists and their attempts to mainstream their propaganda. I'm sure everybody has seen the white genocide posts and there are more talking points they repeat mindlessly, trying to poison the minds of more people. It is dangerous to ignore that and it was important that H. Clinton revealed them for what they are.
