Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said Monday that the disdain his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, showed for voters by calling his supporters "deplorables" makes her unfit to occupy the White House. "You cannot run for president if you have such contempt in your heart for the American voter. You can't lead this nation if you have such a low opinion of its citizens," Trump said in a speech to the National Guard Association conference in Baltimore. Clinton said she was being "grossly generalistic," adding that the other half of Trump's supporters are frustrated and need sympathy. Nevertheless, Trump will have great difficulty winning the presidency with just that voter segment, and desperately needs the support - only marginal to date - of Hispanics and African Americans.
