It is probably like arguing over how many angels can dance on the head of a pin to discuss how many Trump supporters are "deplorables." While it is a substantial number (probably not half, as there would be overlap in deplorable attributes), here's where I am on the subject: Trump is deplorable, therefore support for him is deplorable. Since the majority of Republican voters will vote Republican no matter who is nominated, that makes them all deplorable, as they are willing to perpetrate the advent of deplorability.


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
