After an attempt to boycott Trump wine backfired, Trump supporters took things one step further. Introducing Deplorable Wine, available at an online retailer near you.
The wine was first mentioned on Fox&Friends, and then picked up by the Daily Caller. Its called Les Déplorables, and takes its name from a repurposed insult Hillary Clinton used to describe some of Trumps fans. Clinton called them a basket of deplorables in a campaign speech, and Trumps supporters have taken to referring to themselves in similar fashion.
The American-made (obviously ) wine is produced in both red and white, either Cabernet Sauvignon or Chardonnay based, and retails for $15 a bottle.

(2,769 posts)1. It's never going to be over for these people
They are going full Al Bundy with this one. I doubt they'll get tired of telling us about their 4 TD game. Well, that is until they develop GBFS (George Bush Forgetful Syndrome). That's the one where they conveniently forget who they voted for, what that person did, and how vindictively shitty they acted when you questioned what that dude did.

"Les Essence Sans Plomb" is probably more like it.

I picture PBR, maybe, if they are feeling frisky, some Yukon Gold mixed with Kroger Cola.

He said that the Trump fans will most likely stick to drinking the white wine.

Those people have not taste in anything else. Like Trump wine, it probably tastes like shit.
