(In response to Hillary Clinton's comment stating that half of Donald Trump's supporters are a "baset of deplorables".)
#BasketOfDeplorables Thanks Hillary. We know the elite want us dead, but I'd rather be in a basket of deplorables than believe in equality

Which deplorable basket are you in, Paul? The racists, the sexists, or the religious bigots? Whose "equality" has your knickers in a twist?
* checks his tweets * AHA! We have a trifecta here! Poor widdle nobody actually thinks he will end up as one of the leading classes when the dust has settled. I beg you, Paul, don't give up that job at the sawmill just yet!
@Ivurm: equality is a beautiful idea. embracing Clinton's slur in this way is signalling a disbelief in her sincerity as to actually delivering equality; it's in effect saying you think Trump is more honest, less of a hypocrite.
which isn't true either, of course. but honestly, if you think Clinton's ever going to do anything more about equality than preach prettily to get votes, i'd call you naïve.
"deplorables"
You said it, I didn't.
--EDIT--
@Nomen Nescio
Good point, but as the OP equally referred to itself as one of them, therefore...!
Hey, that retard created that pardox for itself, I didn't...! >:D
@Thinking Allowed
"deplort ed"
Preferably sharted out from the back of a plane. Preferably whilst said plane is over the middle of either the Atlantic or Pacific...!
@Moose: actually, it was Hillary Clinton who said it. in an impressive display of how not to make friends across the political aisle, or convince undecided voters to side with you. and here some people thought she was the class act to Trump's buffoon; more fools they.
Reality hates Paul Kersey, and Paul Kersey hates reality right back. In the end, nobody is happy except Trump, because that's one more vote in his fatass pocket.
If you believe the elites want you dead, but still keep doing the things that you think are causing this, then I suppose that handle is fitting, because you clearly have a death wish.
Thanks for summing up the entire republican position in 140 characters or less. Good job.
Republicans, you built this. Own it.
...
But they ARE deplorable! They are sexist and bigoted and religiously fundamentalist! She didn't say all were but, much like other teapot tempests like GamerGate, they are a bit too visible. Just look at the images that Moose-sama puts up, or any other images of the folks who were either Birthers or general Tea Party idiots, waving Confederate flags, shaking signs about Africa or saying things about immigrants and English. I'd call them deplorable.
Yeah, it's clear that you're deplorable, if you think equality is a BAD thing. You actually like discrimination, persecution, us-and-them? Of course you do, as long as you think you'll be on top...
Donald Trump is also "the elite", born with a whole set of silver spoons in his mouth as he was.
They're having a hard time trying to rationalize this "Deplorable" accusation in Trumpland.
They're also having a hard time with push/pull door labels and white trash ensambles for fall. Can we still wear the "make America Grate" white hat after labour day? And why'd the hell they give pregnant women a day anyway?"
Some are wearing it as a badge of honor others think it's an incredible insult, their great leader hasn't defined it for them yet, he's got a team looking at copyright opportunities first.
Crooks and Liars has been using it as a tag to headline trump surrogates bullshit appearances. It's funny, because we know what it means and how accurate the label is.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
