1. After the past year and a half deplorable is not strong enough.

They have gone well beyond deplorable.

5. "Worthless fucking scumbags" is my term that I use.

And even that is being too kind.

2. If they still support Trump

Then they are a deplorable.

3. Well..

I don't think they are all deplorable. I think there at least two different groups. There are those that are deplorable. There are some that are merely ignorant. Probably some could be described as gullible.

7. It's hard to tell prospectively

But once they've exhibited their immunity to information and facts, they slip into the deplorable category for me. Such determined effort to be a jackass should be recognized and rewarded; it's just rude not to call someone deplorable after they've worked so hard to earn the sobriquet.

4. If they willingly embrace deplorable methods just to "Own the Libs" or out of spite or fear -

They deserve to be called deplorable people. It's simply stating the truth.

Far worse than being called snowflakes, in my considered opinion. Living in a Western state, I know enough snowflakes can have a critically positive impact on the quality of life in our region.

6. I prefer EVIL FUCKING LIARS !!!

[mythology]

8. I think it's self-defeating

Has anybody ever changed their mind due to being called names?

11. I don't believe they can be converted. In the alternative I believe

I don't believe they can be converted. In the alternative I believe the costs of converting them outweigh the benefits. Politics is more about mobilization than persuasion.

Jehovah's Witnesses are ubiquitous in Greater Los Angeles. They set up tables where they give away copies of Awake and The Watchtower. One thing that separates them from Deplorables is they are invariably nice people. One thing that unites them with Deplorables and other true believers is they are immune to new information.

9. Too kind in IMO. Far too kind.

Degenerate seems more fitting.

10. My new choice of description

12. Hillary vastly underestimated the number of deplorables supporting

Trump.
