"The lack of a backlash is notable because using a term like 'weird would seem condescending to some voters — something akin to Hillary Clinton’s deplorables comment in 2016."

Key difference is Democrats today are calling *Republican political leaders* weird, while Clinton called *voters* deplorable.

How about “ They’re so weird, they tried 50 times to take away your health insurance, they oppose Medicaid expansion, they plan to privatize Social Security, they oppose unions and reasonable gun laws,” etc. “Weird” is just the gateway label.
