President Donald Trump took to Twitter late Wednesday to slam Hillary Clinton's CNN interview on why she lost the November election, saying that "the 'deplorables' came back to haunt Hillary."
Here are the president's posts:
In a lengthy interview with Anderson Cooper, Clinton blamed her election loss on Russian meddling and former FBI Director James Comey's reopening of the agency's probe into her private email server late in the campaign — among other factors.
In referencing "deplorables," Trump was referring to Clinton's description of his supporters at a gala fundraiser in New York last year during the campaign.
"To just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the 'basket of deplorables,'" Clinton said.
The former secretary of state is on a book tour promoting her new memoir, "What Happened."
