GOP has shown it is a Basket of Deplorables

I think America owes Hillary Clinton an apology. What do I mean? Well during the 2016 campaign Hillary said the following

“You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right?” Clinton said. “The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic—you name it. And unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up.”

After the video came out all hell broke loose and everyone said that this was not the case. Trump voters were overall good people, that there were just a few bad apples maybe. Well throughout the Trump years, throughout the Covid pandemic, throughout the 2020 election, then on January 6 of this year … and now finally today by voting against a fact finding commission around the January 6 insurrection (that lead to the murder of police officers) the GOP has shown that the party and its voters are actually a basket of deplorables. Hillary was right.
