deplorables

I would definitely wear this t-shirt in Manhattan…but only if accompanied by Tammy…and Tammy’s dog Sydney.

Ya know, for protection.

Just days after Hillary Clinton said she regretted calling half of Donald Trump supporters a “basket of deplorables,” some of those supporters are embracing the title — while enterprising web retailers seize the moment by quickly churning out a line of “deplorables” merchandise….

Clinton walked back the remark the next day, with some commentators comparing it to Mitt Romney’s “47 percent” gaffe.

Some pro-Trumpers, however, are adopting the “deplorable” name on social media, or at least having a lot of fun with it. One Internet meme that zipped around showed a doctored version of a poster for the 2010 movie “The Expendables,” replaced with key figures of the Trump campaign and conservative media, with the banner “The Deplorables.”….

Perhaps sensing a movement, a number of retailers began selling T-shirts and other merchandise that allows the “deplorables” to advertise themselves as part of Clinton’s despised group.

A T-shirt available for purchase on the Howie Carr Show’s website declares “Proud to be a Deplorable” while e-commerce website Etsy has a host of merchandise from various sellers, including mugs that label the drinker a founding member of “The Fraternity of the Basket of Deplorables” and a pendant that says simply: “Call me Deplorable – Trump 2016.”….

    Starting to think that the deplorables comment was meant to incite us to violence. Explains the half-hearted apology because more will be coming in that vein. If Hillary can’t publicly campaign then video of ugly Trump supporters is her best chance. Since they were fairly successful in shouting down All Lives Matter, they probably figured that our mocking embrace wouldn’t happen. We just need to keep responding like this when called names; Yep favor, cough cough, returned, cough cough.
