A handy guide to determine if you are one of Donald Trump’s “deplorables”

A handy guide to determine if you are one of Donald Trump’s “deplorables” September 20, 2016

Hillary Clinton inadvertently gifted the Donald Trump campaign when she insulted his supporters as a “basket of deplorables.” Now, Trump voters are literally wearing the moniker with pride, because we know we aren’t deplorable. We love this country and expect our leadership to feel the same.

But in case anyone is confused over their qualifications on being a deplorable, here is a handy guide, mined from the Boston Herald. Think Jeff Foxworthy’s “You Might Be A Redneck.”

You might be a Trump deplorable if…

  • You stand for the national anthem.
  • You know all the words to the Pledge of Allegiance, and emphasize “under God.”
  • You use your own money and not an EBT card.
  • You actually call it “Islamic terrorism.”
  • You have a job and paid for your own phone (no Obamaphones here).
  • You don’t buy into man-made global warming.
  • You — gasp! — say, “Merry Christmas!”
  • You own a gun, or more than one, and support the National Rifle Association.
  • You resent having to “Press 1 for English.”
  • You believe in traditional marriage.
  • You self-identify as the gender you were born with.
  • You support strengthening our borders to keep America safe.
  • You believe All Lives Matter, including blue ones.
  • You don’t require a safe space or trigger warnings.
  • You aren’t going to vote for Hillary Clinton.

How did you do? I scored 100%! I’m definitely deplorable and proud of it.
