Report: Clinton admitted she messed up with 'deplorables' comment

Hillary Clinton has privately acknowledged that she had made a mess of things in September when she claimed at a fundraiser in New York City that nearly half of Donald Trump’s supporters were deplorable racists, bigots and homophobes, according to the New York Times.

The detail about Clinton’s reported admission was revealed in a larger story about how her campaign saw her as “an imperfect messenger to connect with Rust Belt voters on issues like global trade deals, which she had previously supported.”
