Trump’s Basket Of Deplorables Is Overflowing With Bigotry



Donald Trump’s supporters are a unique breed, and according to the latest data, they are a uniquely racist, dull breed. His supporters believe that white people don’t have enough influence in the United States, meaning they have no idea what the current makeup of our elected officials looks like.

I saw a clip from Fox News in which a right-winger guest was upset because Trump didn't bring Hillary's deplorable remark up at the debate. I think before the next debate, we need to diffuse any possibility of that coming back to bite her if he does bring it up. I think during some upcoming interviews, Hillary's surrogates should throw that word out once in a while. So, for instance if the interview is about Mexico and the wall, the Hillary surrogate should say something like "I think it's pretty awful that Trump started his campaign with such a deplorable statement about Mexicans!" If the interview is about the Muslim ban, the surrogate should say something like "It's pretty sickening that Trump has such a deplorable view about an entire religion!" Let's prevent the RWers from ever trying to attack her with her basket of deplorables statement!

And, of course right now...the hot topic is how Trump judges women....just on their looks. So, during an interview, the Hillary surrogate needs to say, "I am outraged that Trump has such a deplorable view on women...so obsessed only with their weight and beauty!" Throwing that word "deplorable" in once in a while during these interviews, will prevent the RWers from ever trying to cry foul that Hillary used such a horrible word as "deplorable" to describe them!
