Donald Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway shut down Hillary Clinton’s spokesperson Nick Merrill on Twitter when Merrill attempted to defend Clinton’s calling half of Trump supporters a “basket of deplorables.”

As Clinton is faced with backlash for calling half of Trump’s 14.5 million voters a “basket of deplorables…the racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, you name it,” her spokesperson tried to clean up the damage in a series of tweets on Twitter.

(2/3) Obviously not everyone supporting Trump is part of the alt right, but alt right leaders are with Trump. — Nick Merrill (@NickMerrill) September 10, 2016

(3/3) And their supporters appear to make up half his crowd when you observe the tone of his events. — Nick Merrill (@NickMerrill) September 10, 2016

Conway responded to Merrill’s tweets calling for him to have Clinton apologize and to “talk to real people who aren’t donors.”
