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.

Americans are by and large forgiving people. They’ll forgive Bill for cavorting with Monica “I did not have sex with that woman” Lewinsky in the Oval Office and imposing himself on any number of unwilling females. They might even forgive Hillary for losing tens of thousands of compromising emails on an illegal private server and then repeatedly lying about it in a way that insults the deplorable intelligence of the average voter. But the one thing you can’t do is spit on them and tell them it’s raining. They’ll never forgive you for that. They’re hurting, and they rankle at candidates who rub their faces in it.

Hillary doesn't get it. She seems to think that if the people are hungry and don't have any bread then they should eat cake. Trump, regardless of his many faults, knows better, and he speaks of it at every one of his campaign stops. One of his best lines in that regard is "What the hell do you have to lose?"

That's actually one of his worst lines.
 
That makes **** sense. The article starts off by citing the demographic to which Hillary referred, but then it veers into other demographics that have nothing to do with the referenced demographic in an attempt to lump them together.

All sophistry is bad, but there's clever sophistry and there's asinine sophistry that attempts to get people to establish an association between things simply by mentioning them in the same sentence. Unfortunately, considering the dire situation of the electorate, there's more than a decent chance it'll work.
 
What about those deplorable gun owners and their deplorable desire to keep their deplorable gun rights? Hillary hates those deplorable folks and their deplorable rights.

Oh, I'm sure she meant to including them in the "basket" Just an oversight.

Hillary has been lying about and mischaracterizing Trump's supporters since the beginning. According to her they are a bunch of homophobic, xenophobic, racist white supreamists. I'll defer to Milo Yiannopoulos to characterize them more accurately:



So you have it wrong. Those are indeed the "Deplorables" of which Hillary speaks -- people who have given up on the elites of both parties, who are hurting from poor economic conditions, who want to see real change.
