I mean, dont you think that Trump supporters has a good reason to feel insulted?

If they don't consider themselves bigots, xenophobes, and homophobes, why would they be insulted?

Does the truth hurt?

Trump called the children of undocumented immigrants "anchor babies". In his dullwitted opinion, they don't even qualify as Americans. Far worse than HRC's truthful comments.

I never said any such thing.

Maybe its the poorly educated that are more 'street smart' and that's why they want Trump.

Its not always the 'formally educated' person that's smarter, i know a lot of people with high school degrees and no real formal education who would run circles in 'real life' around some of the 'more educated' people, seems like a lot of Trump supporters are the people who are smart in 'real life' which is a good thing to have. You don't have to have a piece of paper from a university to be smart. A lot of those 'smart people' are up to their eyeballs in debt from student loans while the 'poorly educated' aren't paying off loans, they got their educations from the school of hard knocks and aren't in debt and miserable because of that.

Or maybe, WSK, the poorly educated don't realize what they don't know.

Good point.

If they support Trump and don't consider themselves in the half of his supporters in the basket of Deplorables, perhaps they are the half in the basket of Gullibles.
