"Nadaa" and Deplorable

Got it. Wrapped my head around one more meaning of "nadaa". I only understood it as 'suffering' for the longest time.

My introduction to another  contextual meaning of nadaa/deplorable/terrible/awful
over a phone conversation :

question : How are you?/Ingkuo kono?
answer : Doi.. nadaa iti/ I'm suffering (nadaa meaning prior knowledge).
question : Nookuo kodii dino? What is wrong? Onu komozon nu do nadaa?  What do you mean by suffering/deplorable (after enlightened)? Iisai minomobog diau? Who beat you up?
answer : Odoi...okon ko kivaa minomobog dogo. No... ain't beaten up.. Voos ku ogumu giavat. My face  covered with zits.  Nadaa tuongus./ Facially deplorable.
question again : what..??/ OOnu???

Not that I imagine supporters of Team Trump are all pimply. Not at all. Though zits do make a deplorable appearance at times. Worries can be a factor. . I am equating deplorable to "nadaa". People want change. They are tired of living in a deplorable condition. No job, no money in the bank, how to buy groceries?
So a nadaa situation calls for a desperate measure. They believe that Trump can lift them out of their deplorable/lamentable/woeful condition/"kadaan". They can be vocal once again in Trump. So, why not Trump? What do they have to lose? Unless of course they are on the gravy train of dishonesty. Fearful that the gravy train will be no more.

Being labelled as deplorable/nadaa for wanting change, so one can (as basic as) put food on the table, is a sign that a system (pro people) is broken. Wanting to get out of a deplorable rut is a clear message. Get it out loud. May it be clearly heard. Leverage deplorable/nadaa.  Makes sense. Enough is enough/Uha kam uha no.
