Although Clinton later apologized for her comments, \u2062they have continued to influence Democratic rhetoric through to the \u20642022 and 2024 \u200celections. Recently, President Joe Biden referred to Trump\u2019s supporters as \u201cgarbage\u201d during a speech, echoing Clinton\u2019s\u2063 earlier remarks. Vice President Kamala Harris has also fueled criticism\u200c of Republicans, linking Trump and his supporters to \u2062Nazi ideology\u200d based on claims made about Trump&#8217;s desires \u200cduring his presidency. These \u200bstatements\u200c reflect a continued trend among Democratic leaders to \u2062express disdain for Trump\u200b supporters, as evidenced by Clinton&#8217;s comparison of Trump\u2019s rally to a 1939 \u2063Nazi \u2064convention.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ignited a scandal eight years ago when she wrote off a large portion of the nation as &ldquo;deplorable&rdquo; for their support of her Republican opponent, Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump&rsquo;s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables,&rdquo; Clinton <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2016\/09\/10\/493427601\/hillary-clintons-basket-of-deplorables-in-full-context-of-this-ugly-campaign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a> at a fundraiser in September 2016. &ldquo;The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic &mdash; you name it.
