sensible--at least somewhat, enough to make them worth listening to--in the minds of those who regard "others" with inborn conservative suspicion. It's hugely important to understand that. Only a subset of conservatives add active hostility to the mix, and some of those hate.
It's those subsets who are humanity's problem. The others can deal decently and responsibly with a mobile, diverse world, but they've been pulled the wrong direction and poisoned by associating in one party with the hostile ones. Joined together, though, they are HALF of all Americans.
And, yes, she and what she's saying are despicable.

Donald J tRump's campaign chair Stephen Bannon (of Breitbart alt-right site) hates jews. He didn't want his children to go to school with jews and he's on tape with anti-jewish slurs.
Face it. The tRump campaign is anti-semitic and racist and bigoted. But we knew that and this is just more confirmation.

(50,986 posts)and then with Trump. Her ideology sounds about as far right as it gets.
She strikes me as fierce and willful, but also as too angry to think straight. She has a degree in Science but is pimping a political party that is anti-Science.
She doesn't seem to smile very much. Here's hoping she has even less to smile about on the night of November 8.

(37,364 posts)to a goodly number of her boss' supporter she comes in the wrong shade of skin. I just don't understand the women and people from other groups he has targeted who appear to adulate him.

(9,115 posts)Out of the million dumb crazy lies and gaffes she's been filmed telling, that one sprang to mind when I saw her anti-Moslem statement.
Apparently, she's a light Black aryan.

Most small towns in Ohio are filled with Republicans, but Yellow Springs is a very strong exception! A small liberal college there played a big role.

(6,994 posts)Hillary Clinton mentioned. This is the exact example of the Trump supporters that display the Trump 4x8 banner in their front yard.
These are the descendants of the Racists that are still living and acting as if it were the 1950's
This is an an example why we should,without any hesitation, be making calls and knocking on doors to make sure Clinton voters get to the polls.
