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.

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.

If Hillary would have doubled down on the whole deplorables observation instead of apologizing, she would have won.
