I wonder how difficult do you find it when you must descend and interact with the Untouchables? It's interesting that you chose a hierarchy system of discrimination to categorize and label people you don't like.
His tone aside, our beef isn't that you're conservative by itself. It's that you support a leader who's easily proven to be dishonest, corrupt, and xenophobic (with some classic sexism thrown in) on levels that make even shadier politicians of past decades seem saint-like. You may not always practice those values yourself, but you clearly don't consider them to be dealbreakers.
For that matter, if we asked you to outline significant flaws in Trump's behavior or policies, could you do it honestly? I doubt it. Last time we asked a Trump diehard that question, the only real complaint was that Trump wasn't implementing his 'perfect' policies quickly enough. There's no sense that you ever self-analyze or independently form political views.
In a sense, the "deplorable" part isn't so much the ideology (though it is problematic) as that there's no sense there's a self-aware, empathetic human being beneath the surface. Like you're a hollow shell someone else filled up.
