Source it or silence. If this is from HER BOOK, find the actual quote. Try. Oh wait...
Claim: Hillary Clinton said “the average Democrat voter is just plain stupid.”
AP ASSESSMENT: False. Hillary Clinton did not say, “Look, the average Democrat voter is just plain stupid. They’re easy to manipulate. That’s the easy part.” The quote is said to be from the book “Rewriting History” by Dick Morris, which was published in May 2004. Morris, a former adviser to President Bill Clinton, confirmed in an email to The Associated Press that the quote attributed to Hillary Clinton is “not true.” Eileen McGann, Morris’ wife and co-author, expanded on his comment saying, “Dick has categorically denied that the quote was in the book.”
The photo of Clinton with this false quote appeared in 2015 on a Tumblr page titled “Shocking Hillary Clinton quotes,” which featured a variety of false references. The page asked followers to “SHARE and SPREAD these far and wide…& vote for Donald Trump in November.”

Also I'm NOT stating I agree with Hillary Clinton's political views nor her actual statements. My reply here is merely to fact check that photo's false quote. That's all. Have a great day!
