No, I believe his point was that Trump supporters are deplorable because SOME of them do deplorable things.
I agree. Meeting hate with hate doesn't solve anything. You don't solve racism with more racism.
Almost got it. You were thisclose.
Clinton said half...the number is unknown...but "SOME" of them are deplorable.

There are deplorable supporters of Clinton and Johnson and Klein and anyone else that does anything in public. There are deplorable Steeler fans just as there are deplorable Bengals fans and Ravens fans (if the Browns had any fans, surely some of them would be deplorable, too). So what?
The fact is that Clinton insulted a LOT of Americans by trying to paint Donald Trump supporters as deplorable and the sad thing is that Trump actually handled it well which only makes things harder for Hillary. Way to go, Hillary. Way to help out the old Trumpster.
Considering how much you want Hillary elected and don't want Trump elected, I'd think you'd be critical of Hillary as well instead of continuing of trying to insult so many Americans.
So Clinton told a truth you agree with (some are deplorable) and you are still saying she was wrong to do it. Got it.

Many Trump supporters cite his lack of political correctness and that he "tells it like it is" as reasons why they support Trump.
But, the second someone says or does something they don't like they need a safe place from political incorrect micro aggressions like "homophobe" or "Islamophobe." Tell it like it is, but only if it doesn't apply to them.

She didn't say "some", she said "half". Just because Clinton can get away with lying doesn't mean YOU can.
And I don't know about you, but I'd prefer my president be someone who tries to bring the country together not further the divide.

The polls do back it up. They admit to their views.

Give him time.
He is giving Gary an honest chance and reading into his fiscal proposals.

Nope, could you remind us?
I did post a sound bit in another thread where Johnson insults the entire hispanic population of the US.

To be fair, I dont see either one bringing the country together. Both are so vilified right now from opposing sides & voters, it will be worse than ever imo. People will vote for one because they absolutely despise the other. Hillary is a lying evil witch or Donald is a hateful bigot.

I've never supported him. I just want their to only be fair criticisms of the candidates.
Seriously, though, I'm not a Trump supporter. I'll vote for him over Hillary but that's the extent of my "support" and right now I'm either voting Johnson or not at all.

He asserts the American Hispanic population is/ should be upset over the term Illegal Immigrant. He considers the term corollary and when asked why is the term upsetting to the American Hispanic population; his racist reason is "it just is".
Seems he would give them a little more credit to be independent in their thought.
Now I will wait to be shown the time when Trump insulted an entire race.

Typical Left Logic. I'm now a racist because I asked to be shown a time when Trump insulted an entire race.
I will let folks read your unbiased Huff Post link and decide for themselves which one he insults an entire race, because who knows what terrible person that would make me if I suggested none did.

Typical Right Logic, assuming I'm calling you a racist.
I was actually referring to your over simplification of what qualifies as insulting an entire race (as in insulting Mexico is in fact insulting Mexicans).
But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Thanks !
I had meant to watch that (when you posted it) and forgot.
Sometimes when I'm on my phone, I go back to the videos when I get home.
While I understand where Johnson was coming from, he's flat out wrong to go off like that.
By our immigration laws, they are "Illegal Immigrants".
I agree that it would be a nightmare to try to deport said peoples (I believe all should be afforded the chance to be investigated and stay) and it would cost too much money anyway.
Let's not even go into the other expenditures that another candidate is suggesting.

Most of those quotes are true. Mexico is a mess. So is Germany. Britain does have a Muslim problem. If it's true, how is it an insult?
