Hillary Clinton Says She Wants to DEPROGRAM Trump Supporters


Hillary Clinton called for a “formal deprogramming” of Trump supporters in her latest interview with CNN.

The former Secretary of State told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour that there’s a “sane” part of the GOP and a “cult” wing that is only devoted to Trump.

Clinton stated “Sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure.”

She continued “At some point, you know, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members.”

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called for a “formal deprogramming” for many supporters of former President Trump during a new CNN interview.

Discussing the recent upheaval on Capitol Hill, Clinton contrasted what she called the “sane” part of the GOP caucus who helped prevent a government shutdown with the “cult” wing devoted to Trump.

“That’s the way it used to be,” Clinton told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on Thursday. “I mean, we had very strong partisans in both parties in the past, and we had very bitter battles over all kinds of things… but there wasn’t this little tail of extremism, waving, you know, wagging the dog of the Republican Party as it is today. And sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure. He’s only in it for himself. He’s now defending himself in civil actions and criminal actions. And when do they break with him?”

Clinton continued, “Because at some point, you know, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members, but something needs to happen.”

That remark appeared to amuse Amanpour, who could be seen gleefully reacting to Clinton.

Per Mediate:

Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton called for a “formal deprogramming of the cult members” who support former President Donald Trump on Thursday.

During an interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour, Clinton said:

You saw the number of Republicans who voted along with Democrats to keep the government open, so there’s clearly a common sense, sane part of the Republican caucus in the House. But I think they are intimidated. They oftentimes, you know, say and do things which they know better than to say or do, and it will require us defeating those most extreme measures and the people who promote them in order to try to get to some common ground where people can again work together.

That’s the way it used to be. I mean, we had very strong partisans in both parties in the past and we had very bitter battles over all kinds of things: gun control, and climate change, and the economy, and taxes. But there wasn’t this little tail of extremism wagging the dog of the Republican Party as it is today, and sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists, take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure. He’s only in it for himself. He’s now defending himself in civil actions and criminal actions, and when do they break with him? You know, because at some point, you know, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members. But something needs to happen.
