The only thing(s) that would turn the deplorables away from Trump

98% of the deplorables are driven by bigotry and racism, the other 2% are either paid staff and/or batshit crazy.

To turn these people away from tRump, he would have to be caught doing something that the KKK or David Duke would not approve of. For example, a secret African American "love child."

I don't think she will because she doesn't want to hurt her daughter, but Donald already alluded to saying it on Howard Stern's show.

PTSD from serving in Iraq... called her father last night to see if he had changed his mind about Trump.

After all, if someone grabbed her and kissed her and fondled her like the Donald was bragging about, her dad would probably go nuts and kill the perp (he is very protective).

Sadly no... after he spewed a bunch of anti-Hillary lies... he said that he was (and everyone he knows) going to vote for Trump. She even pleaded with him that Trump was a serial sex offender and proud of it... and no, no change. With him its all about Hillary is going to revoke the 2nd amendment and grab his guns (he has a lot of guns).

BTW, he lives in Arizona...

but there is nothing to prevent it... he is not clinically "insane", but he isn't exactly sane either. I've tried to reason with him about this but you can't reason with someone who depends on his weapons to give him a measure of well-being.

Fortunately he lives a long ways from other people and rarely goes off of his property.

groups, to secure an Aryan Nation, problem is these groups are in the minority and making it more important for the rest of the nation to vote and keep this out of office and not making laws we do not need. The angry old white men will die, and hopefully there will not be a lot of followers.

most of those assholes would have sex with black women, especially forced sex. And if she got pregnant it would be "tough shit, bitch!"

Don't kid yourself. Maybe if he secretly married a black woman, they'd turn on him, but they consider all women and all black people to be objects. Black women are a two-fer for them, to be used and discarded. Double the hate.

The hardcore deplorables have been so brainwashed by their echo chamber for so long that they may believe that anything Democratic is truly evil incarnate.

The more important factor is that, between now and November 8th, Trump will likely not gain any more swing voters. He's capped.
