    Hillary calling Trump supporters deplorables is widely credited with being one of the things that cost her the election.
    Now Biden does the same and calls Trump supporters "chumps" as he simultaneously says he'll unite the country.
    Sorry Joe but calling half of America chumps does not unite us.

    "I’m running as a proud Democrat, but I will govern as an American president," he said. "I’ll work as hard for those who don’t support me as those who do, including those chumps with the microphone out there."

    We all know that it is the Democrats who have imposed their PC social ideas and weird definitions on the rest of us.

    Just remember... ""I’ll work as hard for those who don’t support me as those who do..." can also mean that he will take the country back to the Globalist sell out where everybody in the heartland gets the shaft.

    So to me his words really mean. You won't be any worse off than your Democrat buddies who will also get taxed more and ignored again.

    Deplorables or chumps isn’t the right word, I like trumps vernacular to describe these people

    Scum

    Send the Orange Oaf a memo that he needs to focus on telling us what he's going to fo about the virus, not on Hunter Biden or some nonsense about "chumps."

    Big difference is Biden who claims he will unite America calls peaceful Trump demonstrators "chumps" while Trump rightfully calls violent rioters scum.
    Hillary lost votes calling half of America deplorable and Biden just repeated her stupidity calling us chumps.

    Dogwhistle Alert!

    What has been imposed on you?
    Trump said he wouldn't cut taxes for rich people and then turned right around and gave 85% of the personal income tax cut to rich people. This doesn't even count the corporate tax cuts that tend to favor rich people.

    BTW, Biden said he wouldn't increase taxes on anyone making less than $400,000 a year.

    She called trump supporters deplorable and that's half of America. That contributed to her losing and Biden just repeated her mistake.

    WRONG.

    Nobody believes that.

    You need to do MORE Research before repeating FALSE Claims that can be so easily debunked.

    Here is what she said, in Early September 2016:

    “You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables..."

    Your assertion is 100% WRONG, and repeating such an obviously FALSE Claim isn't a good look.

    So many other more accurate words they could have chosen, traitors encompasses most of it.

    The trump campaign is just lies, I am not surprised his supporters have taken it on as their only tactic.

    trump has never had 50% support and less than 1/3 of the voters voted from him
    It is laughable that you believe trump supporters are the majority or even half — but then again y’all do love the false canard of “silent minority” — I guess loudmouth fringe doesn’t have the same ring to it...

    Exactly.

    That "half of America" claim was so misguided that it barely even deserved the intelligent response that you just gave it.

    Number games aside one of the reasons given for Hillary losing is her deplorables statement and Biden just repeated her mistake. How smart is that?

    Once again that statement is widely panned as one of the things that cost her the election and Biden just doubled down on it. Yet another Biden gaff but this one is bigger than most and blows his “unite America “ BS all to hell.

    So roughly 25% of the voting population. Good job Hillary!

    Seriously? I know it was one of the rallying cries of Trump supporters, but is there any evidence this comment induced anyone to change their vote?

    Most of us understood that it was hyperbole - it's not really HALF of his supporters who are white supremicists, but they do make up a sizeable block of his support. Still, I think it was dumb to get caught on tape saying it, but if that changes votes - then I don't see how Trump could have a chance, since he routinely insults Democrats and even Republicans who don't cowtow to him (like "loser" John McCain).

    CNN)Hillary Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook acknowledged the former secretary of state calling half of Donald Trump's supporters "deplorables" alienated voters,

    If you don’t want to play number games maybe don’t introduce them to the thread.

    Most polling companies — I know, polls are bad/evil — places much of the blame on the FBI investigation and numerous targeted misinformation ads (see cambridge analytica).

    The only people that are falling for those again are already voting for trump.

    I wouldn’t question the intelligence of others...
