Yes, but the question as it applies here is how did they manage to backdate their handle to sign up date? There’s very miniscule probability that they decided upon that name 2 years before that term came to the public forefront...
Tea party caught the eye off FBI/NSA in 2008-9. Spooks signed up on all the conservative boards and awaited their assignment.
I’m not sure of Basket of Deplorables, but if I recall, there were several Freepers during the primaries that had “Bush” of some type as their handle and they asked JimRob to change their name but keep their original signup date. As I recall, they were successful. That may be the answer, or he may just be prescient. (Doubt it though...)
