Jim Carey called Trump supporters \u2018zombies\u2019.<\/p>\n

Cause of all that chanting you know.<\/p>\n

Isn\u2019t there another group of people who go around doing a lot of chanting? It reminds me of something I can\u2019t quite not put my finger on.<\/p>\n

But of course Trump supporters are not simply zombies.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re deplorable zombies.<\/p>\n

And although she regrets calling half of Trump\u2019s supporters deplorable, it\u2019s not clear that Hillary doesn\u2019t believe that\u2019s exactly what they are. It was a wonderfully worded comment. She regrets calling<\/em> them deplorable. Not that she doesn\u2019t think they are. Everyone noticed that obviously.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t end there. Rob Reiner says a lot of people who support Trump are racists. My question is whether Rob Reiner\u2019s \u2018a lot\u2019 is more or less than Hillary\u2019s \u2018half\u2019?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to know.<\/p>\n

Jim says they\u2019re zombies, without providing a qualifier, so that simply speaking means all of them.<\/p>\n

Hillary says half are deplorable so that means half are deplorable zombies while half are merely zombies.<\/p>\n

Rob says a lot are racist, which is unhelpful not only because that may overlap with being deplorable, but because we don\u2019t know if all Trump supporters are zombies while half are deplorable zombies but somewhere between all and half are a number of racist, deplorable zombies, or whether all trump supporters are zombies, half are deplorable zombies and less are racist, deplorable zombies.<\/p>\n

This is something I for one would like to know. Perhaps someone could call Rob and find out.<\/p>\n

Either way, somewhere between Jim, Hillary and Rob, I do seem notice a pattern emerging.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
