Nope, I hadn’t thought of Gorey, nor has anyone on Daily Kos as far as I can see. So, credit to you for making the connection.

Now all we need is an illustrator or someone who can manipulate some existing Gorey images (satire is fair use). Any suggestions?;-)

You know (or should) these are not the statements made by Trump and his goons that get qualified (rightly) as deplorable.

“If you’d rather have jobs stay here instead of be NAFTAed out of the states, you’re deplorable?”

If you think those jobs would be here if NAFTA didn’t exist there is no hope for you.

“what with the Parkinson’s Disease”
Now you’re just being an ass repeating falsehoods. No surprise there.

Also, when you referred to saying “nice words to the dozens of minority victim groups,” did you mean words like: “They’re bringing crime; they’re bringing drugs; they’re rapists…”?

The only thing preventing Trump from continuing to offend those groups is the teleprompter — which he earlier deplored but has been forced to use to keep even a semblance of credibility for his campaign.

But really how can you argue with the math? Say strong support is 40% for Trump– that would mean only 20% of the registered voters in the US would have to be racists. Does anyone doubt that this is the case? Does anyone think there are lots of racists in the Hillary column? Maybe some when she was running against President Obama, but certainly not now.

If you’d rather have jobs stay here instead of be NAFTAed out of the states, you’re deplorable?

You mean, if you’re not Politically Correct and say nice words to the dozens of minority victim groups, you’re deplorable?

If you reject someone who habitually mishandles classified and top secret information, who excuses her woman destroying husband, who is corrupt to no end, a “strong woman” who can’t stand on her own two feet (what with the Parkinson’s Disease)…you’re deplorable?

I’ll be the first in line to suggest that a different candidate in each slot would be preferred…but this is the downside of the two stall cattle system we seem to “enjoy”…there isn’t a third or fourth option. People have been taught and believed that they must cast a vote FOR one of these two…

He’s not a white supremacist, because white supremacists have a philosophy. They think about things. They think terrible evil things, but they think. Trump isn’t at their level.

Or as it was put in The Big Lebowski: “Say what you will about the tenets of National Socialism, at least it’s an ethos.”

Oh, you’re not? Considering the history of your fake science class at Carleton I’m not surprised.

I don’t know that there can be a single description of everyone who supports trump. While there is no doubt a good percentage of his followers are racists and white supremacists, but I’d guess there is a significant percentage who really believe (wrongly) that crime is spiraling out of control, that there is a non-zero chance President Obama will pull some way to remain in power as a dictator, or other asinine conspiracy.

Probably, as demonstrated by “deplorable” above, the most general description that can be made of his supporters is that they are amazingly stupid and gullible.

I’m constantly amazed at the inventive ways trump supports display their mind-numbing stupidity.
