Basket of Deplorables
Saw this comment on huffington post and completely agree:
Hillary Clinton was highly criticized for calling the Trumpians a "basket of deplorables". She was right. None of these maniacs (Gianforte, Trump) would exist without them. These people are the lowest common denominator in this country. Liberals get bashed because they look down on "Middle America". They should look down on them and they should shame them daily. These people are gullable, ignorant, easily manipulated, and have no sense in their heads. Why should we not look down on them? They support the worst society has to offer. They pose the biggest threat to the stability of this country. Their loyalty and stupidity is unshakable. Unfortunately the rest of us are held hostage to these people and will have to suffer the consequences of what is happening. That is utterly frightening.
