(81,110 posts)This is hilarious! And they can still be found, to this late date! Just visit any of his rallies. The room's FULL of 'em!
You'll know them by their flying fists, their guttural goon-chants ("USA! USA! USA!" , their Wrestlemania encounters with invaders from the other camp, and their bloodthirsty calls to "Lock Her Up!"
They'll be the ones roaring and cheering themselves hoarse when any speaker onstage calls for Hillary to be tried, convicted, jailed, AND/OR executed. AND/OR damned to Hell for good measure.
They'll be the ones loudly cheering when Orange Julius is up there screeching for opponents to be hauled away, thrown out, beaten up, and carried off, via stretchers.
They'll be the ones actually roughing up a person of color.
They'll be the ones breaking out in fistfights on the floor.
They'll be the ones labeling Hillary with the B-word and the C-word.
And they'll be all white, generally but not exclusively older, and predominantly male.
I don't know what dictionary Trump & Comp are working from, but to me, that list accurately and realistically defines "Deplorable."
