Limbaugh: Clinton Has “Disdain And Contempt” For America Because Those She Called “Basket Of Deplorables” Are “Really The Backbone Of This Country”

From the September 12 edition of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show:

RUSH LIMBAUGH (HOST): See now this, this goes to something that I have always accused the left of being. They stereotype anybody not them as a racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe. So here she is talking to LGBT people, and she has to start talking about people supporting Trump and justify the fact that they're supporting Trump. “They're a bunch of kooks. They're deplorable people. You and I both know it. You and I, you LGBT members supporting me, we know we're special, we know we're enlightened, we know we're progressives, we know we are advanced, sophisticated, but these rubes out there are voting for Trump.” So she makes these comments to make her donors feel better about themselves and to establish a connection, but in the process she does just what Obama did with his bitter clinger comments. It's clear that these people on the left have disdain and contempt for the people that are really the backbone of this country. They have contempt for the people who make this country work. They're not racist and sexist and bigots. You'll find more racism and bigotry on the left, far more than you will find on the right in this country. This is just absurd.
