Having a national figure she can identify with has just made her louder and prouder about what is so deplorable. It makes it harder to sweep under the rug and talk around. Not sure I really want to either.Don't bother trying to reason with her, it will go nowhere. She wasn't brought to her beliefs by reason, so she won't be talked out of them by reason -- it's a waste of time to try. I've learned from experience that those kind of people are not interested in facts, and really just want to be annoying and hear their own voice.
I'd recommend politely asking her for a mutual agreement not to discuss politics. If she can't do that then you should leave the room when she starts going on a rant. Just because she's you're sister doesn't mean you have to be her soundboard.

I think the term "ass" is more fitting.
