Be 'Deplorable'
"And it's not surprising, then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." - Barack Obama (2008 'Bitter Clingers' speech)
"You know, just to be grossly generalistic, you could put
half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right?
The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic - you name it. And
unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up. He has
given voice to their websites that used to only have 11,000 people, now have 11
million. He tweets and retweets offensive, hateful, mean-spirited rhetoric. Now
some of those folks, they are irredeemable. But thankfully they are not
America." - Hillary Clinton (September 9, 2016)
"Every now and again secular progressives rip off their mask and tell conservatives what they really think of them...Anything they (non-Liberals) say 'no' to is to be labeled racist, sexist, misogynist, xenophobic and nativist. To the left, anyone who does not share 'modern' ideas is to be condemned, even called unAmerican and deplorable." - Cal Thomas
"You can’t win an American presidential election without
the deplorables’ vote. Deplorables are America’s biggest minority. They might
even be the American majority. They may or not be racist, homophobic and so
forth, but they know they’re deplorable. Deplorable, and proud. They’re the
median family whose real income has fallen deplorably by 5% in the past ten
years, the 35% of adult males who deplorably have dropped out of the
labor force, the 40% of student debtors who deplorably aren’t making
payments on their loans, the aging state and local government workers whose
pension funds are $4 trillion short. They lead deplorable lives and expect that
their kids’ lives will be even more deplorable than theirs." - 'Spengler'
