FROM ONE OLD DEPLORABLE TO MANY OTHERS ....

I used to think I was just a regular guy, but . . . I was born white, which now, whether I like it or not, makes me a r****t;

I am a fiscal and moral conservative, which by today's standards, makes me a f*****t;
I am heterosexual, which according to gay folks, now makes me a h********c;

• I am non-union, which makes me a t*****r to the working class and an ally of big business;

• I am not Muslim which now labels me as an infidel;

• I believe in the 2nd Amendment, which now makes me a member of the vast gun lobby;


• I am older than 70, which makes me a useless old man;

• I think and I reason, therefore I doubt much that the main stream media tells me, which must make me a reactionary;

• I am proud of my heritage and our inclusive American culture, which makes me a xenophobe;

• I value my safety and that of my family and I appreciate the police and the legal system, which makes me a right-wing extremist;


• I believe in hard work, fair play, & fair compensation according to each individual's merits, which today makes me an anti-socialist;

• I believe in the defense and protection of the homeland for and by all citizens, which now makes me a militant;


• Recently, a woman called me and my friends a “basket of Deplorables;”


• Please help me come to terms with the new me...because I'm just not sure who I am anymore!

I would like to thank all my friends for sticking with me through these abrupt, new found changes in my life and my thinking. I just can't imagine or understand what's happened to me so quickly.

Funny...it's all just taken place over the last 7 or 8 years.

As if all this crap wasn't enough to deal with, I'm now afraid to go into either restroom....

Well now, you may be up there in age to some degree, but never let that mean s**t! You have plenty of people like me around. I tend to desire to protect American's like you! You deserve to be care free in all things in your life to not have to deal with the "knuckleheads" out here. I hope you have American's like me in your area. I have NO mercy for anyone messing with my elderly Hero's , and you, are just that.

My friend I understand your plight. It is not our problem, but the problem belongs to the other assholes who have no respect for anything or anybody except for themselves. I hope I am right in saying this, I think all us deplorables have just about had enough of all this garbage we have had crammed down our throats for the last sixty years. We are waking up, beginning to take a stand and fighting for what is rightfully ours as a people. We have been shamed by Liberals, the Democratic Party, Intellectuals and leaders of minority groups like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and others. If we don't start to fight back and let these other entities know that we have had enough, there will not be anything left for our families, children and grandchildren. We built it, scraficed for it and paid for it in more ways than one. It is nothing wrong being White. We built this country and should be damned to let Muslims, B****s, Hispanics, etc. to tell us how unfair we are to them and that we owe them. WE DON'T OWE THEM A GOSH DAMN THING, PERIOD. If anything, they owe us for all the sacrifices that have been made in money, blood, sweat and tears. What do we have to show for it? NOTHING!

Spot on...You, I, and so many other deplorable's are from "Old School" whereas today most younger ones are "New School" Yes old timer this is rapidly changing times, and none for the better.

You are what the rest of us Americans call a good American and a proud one as well. We are all with you and that is why Trump is president and not Hilary thank God.
