So how many times does the left have to tell Americans what it thinks of them before Americans realize a pretty simple fact?

Leftist leaders simply don't like at least half the country.

In 2012, the media lost their minds over former Governor Mitt Romney's statement that 47% of Americans, quote,

who are dependents upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, would vote for President Obama. This apparently demonstrated Romney hated everyday Americans, disdained them, saw them as moochers. In 2008, then Senator Barack Obama claimed that small-town Americans in the Midwest are benighted Hicks. He said it's not surprising they get bitter. They cling to guns, religion, or antipathy toward people who aren't like them, or anti-immigrant sentiment, or anti-trade sentiment, as a way to explain

their frustrations. This received attention from the conservative press. It was downplayed by the

mainstream media or brushed off as basically accurate. This weekend, Hillary Clinton echoed

Obama, she said through her robot cough, quote, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables, right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, you name it. And unfortunately, there are people like that. The other half of Trump supporters, Clinton said, are a little bit better. She said, that other basket of people are people who feel the government has let them down. The economy has let them down. Nobody cares about them. Nobody

worries about what happens to their lives and their futures. They're just desperate for change.

Those are people we have to understand and empathize with as well. Clinton's language is actually

more telling than Obama's. Democrats routinely see voters they don't understand as morally deficient.

This provides them the comforting illusion that disagreement reflects lack of virtue.

And that means they don't need actual policies to succeed. Success or failure is completely

irrelevant to the ethical question of how to vote. Good people will vote for them, regardless

of track record, bad people will oppose them. But Clinton's language goes even

further. Where Obama labeled his opponent's bad guys, Clinton actually suggests that Romney was right.

Those who are her potential supporters are pathetic losers waiting for government to save them.

They're disappointed with the economy. They think the government has to do more. They just need some

TLC from Clinton, and then they'll realize Trump isn't the man for them. This means the sneering tone so many people detected in Romney exists among Democrats for their own constituents. Hillary doesn't label her potential voters self-sufficient Americans seeking equal opportunity. No, not at all. They're grievance mongers, ne'er-do-wells, people who believe their victims, who believe government has an obligation to take care of them.

She thinks she can draw them to the Democratic Party.

So, where are all the good Americans?

To Democrats, they just don't exist.

They're the deplorables and the needies, that's it, and the elites who control them.
