baskets of deplorables

Recommended Posts

This one is also just funny:

===============================================

An anti-trans, anti-abortion, Trump-supporting pastor thinks he’s figured out exactly what LGBT+ people are looking for: domination.

Saturday, August 31, saw a so-called Straight Pride march in Boston outnumbered by more than 1,000 counter-protestors.

The event drew much ire and ridicule on Twitter, prompting right-wing pastor Greg Locke to bless the internet with his own thoughts.

According to Locke, the reaction to the Straight Pride Parade reveals that LGBT+ aren’t truly looking for equality, but rather domination.

"The #StraightPrideParade responses truly reveals that the LGBTQ aren’t looking for equality. They’re looking for domination."

================================================

Silly deplorable.  He's confused LGBT with BDSM again.

Well, this seems to fit here.

Trump and his minions have been hammering on journalists. Calling the 'Mainstream Media' "Fake News", when what it does is criticize him.

So, of course, some of his followers latch onto it.
Some of those followers are in positions of certain power.
And, of course, they abuse that power.

To include Customs officers harassing journalists.

Moorhead police: Driver with Trump bumper sticker waved gun at driver with Warren bumper sticker

I *Might* have a friend in common with this guy on Facebook.  Although he's listed as a Bismarck resident on Facebook.  Confirmation pending.

 

Edit: Not the same guy.  Facebooked the name and found a guy listed as Bismarck, ND but it ain't him.

Not him

Well, there's no mention of Trump specifically, but considering the guy is demonizing Democrats, I'd bet pretty heavily he's a Trumpette.

County supervisor (board member) in Sevier County TN took the podium and said some stuff that was a bit 'deplorable'.

 

Quote

We got a queer running for president, if that ain't about as ugly as you can get, look what we got running for president in the Democratic party. 

I'm not prejudiced, a white male in this country has very few rights and they're getting took more every day.

Fortunately, other supervisors, the county mayor, city of Pigeon Forge, city of Sevier, Dollywood (Dolly Parton's theme park) and some individuals and groups objected to the comments and said that those comments don't represent them.

And of those who applauded his homophobic rant there were those who, apparently likened it to a good sermon, and said "amen".

Yep.  White straight males have almost no rights.  It's the queers and the chicks and the Jews that got all the rights!  And I ain't prejudiced - I have a black friend.

Man arrested for racial harassment at Dillon thrift store

...Jones allegedly showed her a picture on his phone of “his people building the wall to keep all of the Mexicans out” along with a number of other derogatory remarks aimed at Mexicans...

Source: https://www.summitdaily.com/news/man-arrested-for-racial-harassment-at-dillon-thrift-store/

The guy is from Fairplay. That is the town that sits in the geographic area known as "South Park" and inspired the TV show of the same name. In fact if you go to Google Maps and search for "South Park CO", it takes you to Fairplay.

Well, a Trump supporter who attacked a 61 year old protester has been found guilty of simple assault (misdemeanor charge). He faces up to 6 months when sentenced.

Gotta love how the defense attorney claimed that the guy who was attacked 'provoked' the attacker.

You are right. 

Try this one:
https://www.wbay.com/content/news/Man-found-guilty-of-assaulting-protester-outside-Trump-rally-in-Cincinnati-566857001.html?fbclid=IwAR17WhLE_w6nUqSjA8gENFe0Tfkk2SNHVjxL0fXx857NMhvOXsI3gUNz6DM

 

The other one was for a car board I read.
Someone made a cutting board, like a checkerboard, but in the "Pascha" pattern. 
The one that Porsche used back in the 70s, the one that drives epileptics crazy.

So . . . Is CNN a deplorable too?  (Or is that description only given to Trump supporters?)  They seem to have been the instigators of the same behaviors that are being touted as deplorable in this thread.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/07/media/cnn-settles-lawsuit-viral-video/index.html

 

Why is it, do you think that this isn't being discussed as heavily as other things here?

Is it because it paints the left in a not so rosy light?

I mean - really - There were some pretty blatant lies told again, and again, and again, trying to villainize this kid.  Some pretty powerful media sources, celebrities, and even Politicians had it out to crucify this kid.

 

Where is the righteous indignation that would follow if this kid was an AOC supporter, and lost the MAGA hat?

Where is all the outrage for justice, here?

Trump's "basket of deplorables 

Hi Bill,

Looks to me like Trump is his own 'deplorable':  Trump takes partial credit for Ethiopian prime minister’s Nobel Peace Prize.

He is being so mistreated.

Well, he did suffer horribly during the Vietnam War when he had to live through the hell of risking catching an STD every time he assaulted a woman.  And people all thought John McCain was some kind of war hero while Trump got zero medals for his suffering.  Unfair!  Why don't they support war heroes who WEREN'T captured?

Well he does repeatedly complain about not getting a Piece Prize.

Maybe it’s because it was CNN reporting their own settlement, and describing the whole scene? They also reported, once it became known, what had been missing from earlier stories, giving Mr Sandmann’s actions a fair look overall.

”Deplorables” won’t consider that they might be wrong, and never change the narrative.
