As I recall, she was actually pretty specific in who she called deplorable, and it was an apt description. "They're racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic". Saying that was half of Trump supporters was hyperbolic and perhaps inaccurate, but MAGA world adopted 'deplorable' as a badge of honor of their own free will.
Do you think they indeed self-identify as racist, sexist, homophobic, or Islamaphobic? I can only speak for the people I know personally, but that label does seem to fit. When you think you are being oppressed by "the alphabet mafia" you may want to take a step back.
