In Clinton’s first television interview to promote her upcoming book about the election, she also explained her controversial use of the word “deplorables” to refer to some of Trump’s supporters.

“Well, I thought Trump was behaving in a deplorable manner. I thought a lot of his appeals to voters were deplorable. I thought his behavior as we saw on the ‘Access Hollywood’ tape was deplorable,” Clinton told CBS’s “Sunday Morning.”

“And there were a large number of people who didn’t care. It did not matter to them. And he turned out to be a very effective reality TV star.”

Clinton, whose new book, “What Happened,” is scheduled for release on Sept. 12, referred to the 2016 election as “a reality show.” 

“We have a reality show that leads to the election of a president. He ends up in the Oval Office. He says, ‘Boy, it’s so much harder than I thought it would be. This is really tough. I had no idea.’ Well, yeah, because it’s not a show. It’s real. It’s reality for sure,” Clinton said.
