It is deplorable that the list of deplorable things done and said by the Republican nominee for president is so long it's hard and exhausting to try to remember them all. But what's most deplorable is the knee-jerk pushback against anyone who dares point out this reality, as though exposing the deplorable is worse than the deplorable things themselves. Maybe the best way to avoid being labeled deplorable is to stop doing and saying and standing for deplorable things? There's a reason Duke and white nationalists are so giddy about the prospect of a "President Trump." The most foulmouthed, foul-thinking Trump supporters are America but are not irredeemable.
