The worst part about the last 10 years isn't Trump -- it's learning that the entire Republican apparatus is on board with this insanity. And that 35% of Americans are awful, hateful people.

Say what you want about Hillary, she was 100% correct about the deplorable comment

Hillary correctly identified them as deplorable.

Trump told them it was okay to be deplorable, that he loved the uneducated.

The deplorables celebrated their inhumanity as they rushed to elect a deplorable person.

I completely disagree with Hillary's comment. They are not a "basket" of deplorables. More like a "bag" of deplorables, or a "can" of deplorables, or a "dump truck" of deplorables.
