Jeopardy Trolls Hillary Clinton With 'Baskets of Adorables' Category

The longtime game show "Jeopardy!" trolled Hillary Clinton on Monday night with its category entitled "Baskets of Adorables."

The category depicted answers with pictures of cute animals like cats and sloths in baskets.

Host Alex Trebek drew laughter when he read out the category name. He added "uh-oh" after stating the title.

The category was a reference to Clinton's infamous remark last September that half of Donald Trump's supporters belonged in a "basket of deplorables."

"To just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables," she said. "Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, you name it … But that other basket of people are people who feel the government has let them down, the economy has let them down. Nobody cares about them."

Clinton later said she was "wrong" to make those remarks.
