I don't think there was anything wrong about Clinton's "deplorable" remark.

But then I am biased.

But, for awhile, I thought perhaps it was pretty harsh rhetoric and might backfire on her politically.

Apparently, not so much.

Mike Pence Is Rebuffed as He Tries to Rally G.O.P. Leaders Over ‘Deplorables’

He ran head on into a buzz saw. John McCain for one.

The discontent of Senators and other responsible Republicans has been kept under wraps but now it seems to burst forth as Trump tries to get a more robust support from traditional allies.

Nope.

What Pence heard was some really tough talk back. John McCain particularly criticized Trump's embrace of Putin. Somehow the Donald forgot that there are still a lot of cold-warriors left in his Party who don't cotton to such soft talk.

Especially those who, like McCain, are running for re-election in a tough talk State.

It is all rather amusing to see. It shows neophyte Trump left high and dry with his own isolation from his Party. Now, when he needs some love and support, nowhere to turn.

Like it or not, we have a two party system and outliers or renegades like Trump will be roundly punished for such transgressions.
