White House petition suggests naming next Navy ship 'USS The Deplorables'
Quote:U.S. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus has a penchant for doling out interesting and unconventional names for new warships, but a petition currently on the White House website wants the next major warship to be named something that may be too outlandish even for him.
The petition suggests that the next major vessel be christened “USS The Deplorables,” as the petition notes, “to honor those citizens who rose up to defend America and the Constitution from the globalists.”
The name is taken from a remark Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made on the campaign trail to refer to supporters of President-elect Donald Trump.
"You know, just to be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables,” Clinton said at a rally in September. "The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic — you name it. And, unfortunately, there are people like that. And he has lifted them up.”

Like over 50% of those voting for Hillary aren't every bit as ignorant. Just remember, it was your neighbors that voted Trump into office.
Let that sink in....

This is what the lunatic left doesn't get- those of us on the other side of the aisle have a sense of humor. When Mitt made his 47% comment, in private BTW, you would have thought he'd shot Mother Theresa from the OUTRAGE!!!
I'm OUTRAGED!!!
We, OTOH, laughed, said she can kiss my ass, and rather cheerfully pulled the lever against the hag.
Now, let's name a freaking Frigate in her honor, kinda!
Thanks, cank! lol

Excellent point.
The Democratic nominee insulted us and instead of getting our panties in a bunch and protesting we embraced it and turned it into a rallying call. HRC probably did more to unite the conservative side of the electorate than anybody else with that one comment. It's only fitting that we honor that achievement.
Besides....if they can name a fleet oiler after a pedophile like Milk this isn't so bad.

If they can name a ship after Milk, then they honor average Americans and I would bet that the dead heroes of the Navy would agree with the name.
