White House petition suggests naming next Navy ship 'USS The Deplorables'

The petition suggests that the next major vessel be christened “USS The Deplorables,” as the petition notes, “to honor those citizens who rose up to defend America and the Constitution from the globalists.”

The name is taken from a remark Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made on the campaign trail to refer to supporters of President-elect Donald Trump.

The petition, which was started by someone with the initials D.S., has so far only garnered 768 votes since being launched on December 4, 2016 – 99,232 short of the 100,000 needed by January 3, 2017, to receive an official response from the White House.

I like the idea, but it will never happen there`s too much politics behind the name I don`t think the navy wants to get involved in politically sensitive stuff when naming a ship.

The U.K. almost awesomely named one of their exploration ships Boaty McBoatface

Too bad, as usual, "they" didn't listen to the public.

By the gods that is funny.

I wish I had thought of it.

I think just

USS Deplorable

sounds better.

Nice twist, I think that Trump will be downsizing the military build up some, not 'deplorable' at all.

You think Trump will downsize the military build up? You are not paying attention to his cabinet.

I like it.

If Hillary won it could have been the USS Out of Touch.

Gary Johnson could have had the USS Puffer.

Jill Stein could have been the USS Futile.

If Hillary had won we could start a petition to name a new boat the uss pant suit...

I like...some of her pantsuits. They did start to get repetitive though.

Hahaha!

If so named, sucks to be you that are assigned to such a named vessel.

A wonderful DD-214 bullet point however,....lol

I'd rather have the USS Nasty Woman

As long as it has Hillary's likeness painted on the very front, it will scare the bejesus out of all potential adversaries.

To defend America and the constitution from the globalists....hmm. That would be a backwards definition.

No, Trump gets Deplorable. It is apparently pantsuit that Clinton gets.
