Danny Deraney is an L.A.-based P.R. exec, but based on this tweet following the Mississippi Senate runoff election, it seems like he might not be so great at dealing with the public after all:
Tonight, half of Mississippi reminded the US why it's:
50th in income
48th in economy
3rd in welfare dependency
50th in healthcare
50th in infant mortality
2nd in obesity
47th in education
50th in college readiness
47th in employment
7th in depressionCongratulations…

We have no doubt that Mississippi residents really appreciate being condescended to and maligned by another smug elitist Hollywood liberal.
the original tweet said half. Not lumping all. There are a lot of amazing people in Mississippi.

Oh, Danny … as a P.R. exec, you should know better than to attempt such a weak backpedal. He claims to have a lot of experience in crisis management but he clearly sucks at it.
just say you hate poor people it’s faster

Be honest with yourself, Danny. You’re not fooling anyone. Except maybe yourself.
Wow. There sure is a lot of hate and narrow mindedness in most of these replies. Most of which have likely never step foot in the State to understand for themselves. In the words of William Faulkner- “To Understand the World, you must first understand a place like Mississippi.”

Oh, are we doing this? Because try a major US city and see how that analysis works out for you. You'd be hounded off twitter and rightly so. https://t.co/IgAFr12KbB

Damn straight.
that's a pretty deplorable take, Danny…

Yeah it is.
Magically, he wouldn't have cared about any of this if the Dems won. Weird

Oh, of course not.
"Hahahaha let's mock poor people because they collectively don't vote the way I want them to. They deserve it." These people are sick.
— Mo Mo (@molratty) November 29, 2018
Truly.
I thought Dems cared about poor people and GOP were elitist?

More compassionate liberalism. ?
