Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager smeared a large portion of the population the other day. Robby Mook doubled down on his boss’s assertion that many of Trump’s supporters are homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic bigots who burn crosses and hate puppies. “I think a lot of the people that stand by Donald Trump are deplorable and the things they say are deplorable,” Mook said on NBC’s Meet the Press. To borrow a page from Hillary’s Big Book of Smears, would it be accurate to portray some of her followers as a bunch of anti-American, heterophobic, basement-dwelling Christophobes?

I think not. What the Clinton campaign is doing is not all that different than what President Obama did back in 2007. Remember the gun-toting, Bible-clinging, bitter Americans slur? And more recently, Hillary basically accused every red-blooded American of being racist. “I think implicit bias is a problem for everyone — not just police,” she said.

Well, the fact of the matter is all those deplorable people pay the bills in this country. We’re the ones watching our jobs go south of the border as the illegals stream north of the border. All those deplorable Americans are the ones who pledge allegiance to the flag and stand for the national anthem and volunteer to wear the uniform of the United States military. So the next time Hillary or one of her minions wants to say something about all of us gun-toting, Bible-clinging, deplorable Americans, a simple thank you will suffice.
