WASHINGTON (TND) — Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is calling for the “formal deprogramming” of “MAGA extremists.”
The comments came during an
interview with CNN Thursday, where Clinton addressed “GOP chaos,” former President Donald Trump and the upcoming 2024 presidential election.
“Sadly, so many of those MAGA extremists take their marching orders from Donald Trump who has no credibility left by any measure,” she said. “He’s only in it for himself. He’s now defending himself against civil actions and criminal actions. When do they break with him?”
Clinton continued, calling for formal action against Trump’s most dedicated supporters.
“At some point maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members,” she said. “Something needs to happen."

When asked how she would accomplish such a feat, Clinton stated “we have to defeat them."
Earlier in the conversation, however, she admitted that the few House Republicans who sided with Democratic efforts to pass a defense funding bill last week proved there was “common sense” and a “sane part” of the Republican party.
Clinton's remarks drew the ire of social media commenters who disagreed with the extreme nature of her demand.
“'Re-education camp'. See: Concentration camp,” one user on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter,
said. “This language should bother you. No matter your political leanings or views. It should send a shiver down everyone's backs.”
Clinton accused 'MAGA extremists' of continuing to take 'marching orders' from Trump.
