Perhaps someday the Democrats will learn not to have candidates who seem to hate a substantial part of the voter pool, but probably not. The Democrat platform is totally based on hating a substantial part of the voter pool – the part you’re floating in.

We've taken on a name for ourselves. We are the deplorables.

What does it take to be a deplorable? If you believe that that 2nd amendment to the Constitution grants the right to bear arms to individuals, if you think that there are only 2 sexes, male and female, if you think that men should not be allowed in women's restrooms and vice versa, if you don't like paying high taxes and don't like to see the government wasting taxpayer money on useless nonsense, if you think that the laws of the land should be enforced, if you think that you have a right to believe in and conduct your life by whatever religion, or no religion. If you seek to live life and see yourself as a victor rather than a victim, then you are a deplorable. In other words, being a deplorable is nothing more or less than being a normal person. And many Democrats despise us for it.
 
I just stopped by to bask in the irony that the most over-the-top, hate-filled, drooling at the mouth with rage partisan is trying to point fingers about people spreading hate. If your ability to spam us with the most vile hate threads was taken away, hate speech on DP would drop 70-80%.

I think it was Gandhi that said we should be the change we want to see, so if you want to see less hate in American politics you should lead from the front.

For a reminder of the peace and love you share you can look below:

LOL, I agree with most of that and yet I am no deplorable or a trump supporter. Label yourself anyway you wish, I will stick to my being an American Citizen.

You seem to have confused "ideal sanitized patriot-conservative" with "deplorable"
 
You seem enraged.

The left are masters of outrage. They spend their entire days whining, moaning, and groaning, over what normal people consider so minute that when the left goes off on some foaming at the mouth frenzy, most people are scratching their heads wondering what the heck is going on. The left has been at war with the nation for some time, it is only recently, about 2010, that normal folks are starting to respond. It began with kicking out 1200+ leftists from seats nationwide, then preventing leftists from taking special elections. Denying the left the House, Senate, and the presidency, they failed to get the picture.

Then of course you have the incessant name calling by the left. There isn’t a day that goes by the left isn’t switched on about something. When DJT dishes it right back the left calls DJT, “thin skinned.” That’s hilarious since it’s the left who are thin skinned. Anyway sets them off. The level of hate is unparalleled often leading to violence by the left. From attempted assassinations to beat-downs to the burning of city blocks, the left has demonstrated violence is an ends to justify the means.

I think any reconciliation is now going to be extremely difficult to impossible. The left has created so much damage to the country.
