basket of deplorables 

Hillary Clinton's term for Trump's supporters, claiming they are all racist, sexist, misogynistic, xenophobic and many other words for bigotry turned into meaningless buzzwords by the left. While this made her radical followers very happy (because they believe it) and her other followers happy as well (because they believed it would hurt Trump), it actually backfired on her. Turns out calling half of the country bigoted does not bode well when you are running for president and claiming you will unite the country.
The infamous "basket of deplorables" speech definitely factors into why Clinton lost the 2016 election.

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.
