If you want to use that word as an official label, don't cheapen it by overbroad application.

It is more likely than not the dog rapist is a Trump supporter, i.e., Deplorable.

How do you know the dog rapist wasn't trying to exert dominion over his victim?

I'm just saying, if you want to use the term Deplorables--and I know you like to use that word a lot, and that's fine--I think it's best that you stick to situations where politics--and specifically Trump driven politics--are involved.

Otherwise, rhetorically you're just backfiring on yourself.
