I searched the article and was unable to find the phrase "basket of deplorables." That's puzzling, because it's a really stellar instance of the very action the article discusses. Certainly, you can get a very wound-up contingent of people anywhere who will work themselves into hysterics, call people murderers and Nazis (and then of course jump to how moral it is to punch them), but it's rather different seeing a statesperson succumb to that kind of thing was a little startling. The article missed an opportunity there.
