“Look, man the other guy’s base is what I grew up in,” the former president told the crowd of Hillary Clinton supporters gathered at Palm Beach State College. “You know, I’m basically your standard redneck.”

Just last month, Clinton joked that he was confused by the “coal people” in West Virginia and Kentucky, in reference to Trump’s popularity in those states. (RELATED: Bill Mocks The ‘Coal People’ Of WV, KY)
