> Apparently the apology was over "half" rather than "deplorables"

Which is fair. It's impossible to deny that there are white supremacists (who are deplorable) that support Trump. They're very candid about it.

Sure. There are individuals in any large group that stray in philosophy and behavior from what the majority consider rational or acceptable, and that includes Clinton, Johnson and Stein supporters.

So what is the acceptable number? "Almost half"?

And what does that say about the rest of the group? Are they too to be damned by association, for standing too close to the "real deplorables"?
