"Last night I was 'grossly generalistic,' and that's never a good idea," Clinton said in her statement. And while Clinton did say she regretted the comment, she did not apologize to people she may have offended. "But it is just part of the landscape that we live in and we just keep forging ahead," Clinton said. Bakari Sellers, a Clinton surrogate and CNN contributor, was defiant when asked about the remark, suggesting that it didn't matter if Clinton referred to half or merely some of Trump's supporters as "deplorables." Just over an hour after the Post's story published, Clinton issued her statement of regret.
