Hillary Clinton floats 'formal deprogramming' of Trump supporters, suggests GOP base is made of bigots
Clinton once referred to half of Trump's supporters as belonging in 'basket of deplorables'
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called for a "formal deprogramming" for many supporters of former President Trump during a new
CNN interview.
Discussing the recent upheaval on Capitol Hill, Clinton contrasted what she called the "sane" part of the GOP caucus who helped prevent a government shutdown with the "cult" wing devoted to Trump.

I don't agree with formal deprogramming but it may be hard to argue that the far left and far right are not made up of bigots, based on the definitions below. Each are unreasonably attached to their belief and each actively oppose, and can be hostile toward, those to that don't share in their beliefs.

Yes there are hostile bigots all over, on both sides, here as well, but trying to deprogram them all at once will only make them more hostile. Pretty much all you can do is try to be better than them and pray for them.

What !! You think we're a bunch of phonies being Pro-Life and Anti-Abortion, going Green while driving a pickup that gets 6 miles to the gallon and finally, supporting migration while praising the Gov for extending the Wall.
Long live the Center --- we're always happy !!!
