Clinton was wrong; they're all (Trumpanzees) 'deplorable'
Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton has come under fire recently for saying that half of GOP nominee Donald Trump's supporters are "racists, sexists, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic," etc. — what she classified as "the basket of deplorables." And indeed, she was wrong.
The truth is, they're all deplorable.
When are we going to stop mincing words and stop giving free passes? The size of a movement does not determine its morality. In fact, the worst times in history have always been preceded by a period when hatred, bigotry and cruelty have been normalized, with pure, irrational fear as motivation.
Trump has become a master at fear-mongering and playing on people's hatreds and biases. When one considers the absolutely massive amount of hate-filled and stereotypical things he has said, along with his bigoted policy positions, one is confronted with the harsh reality that he not only favors authoritarian measures, but that his guiding principles (what ones there are) are largely governed by personal prejudices.

Yes, and they prove her right every time they flap their deplorable jaws.
