10. Education is the new red vs. blue metric.

The less educated a state’s population, the more likely they were to vote for Trump.

Only six of the top 16 states with the highest percentages of people who only completed high school voted (https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/5c1r1j/2016_election_results_ranked_by_states/) for Clinton (in descending order, MN, NH, VT, HI, ME, WA).

The other 10 voted for Trump (in descending order, WY, AK, IO, MT, UT, ND, SD, NB, WS, KS).

In contrast, the top 16 states with the largest percentages of people with a bachelor’s degree all voted (https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/5c1r1j/2016_election_results_ranked_by_states/) for Clinton (in descending order, DC, MA, MD, CO, CN, NJ, VA, VT, NY, NH, MN, WA, IL, RI, CA, HI).

And the top 18 states with the highest percentage of people with advanced degrees all voted (https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/5c1r1j/2016_election_results_ranked_by_states/) for Clinton (in descending order, DC, MA, MD, CN, VA, NY, VT, NJ, CO, IL, RI, DE, NH, WA, CA, OR, NM, MN).

This was esp true of women who voted for pussy-grabbing, misogynist Trump.

low-education, low-wage women, conned, duped into believing The Big Orange Turd was gonna help them.

What are Trash's voters gonna do when, at the end of 4 years, they are more financially stressed, or best in the same shithole, as in 2016?

Since many of those are liberal arts, they don't really count. But your attempt at elitism is duly noted.

Oh...

you lost.

We've already established that uneducated liberals didn't vote in this election, so I don't know what the point of this thread was. No amount of trying to prove you're smarter than somebody is going to erase the fact that they have just as much power as you.

no proof. It was an observation OF DATA (aks FACTS) that uneducated people vote Trump, and they vote Repug, and they have gotten, and will get screwed. Stupid is as stupid does.

Uneducated probably correlates with close-minded, bigoted, xenophobic, racist, and Bible humping literalism

Facts is facts, under-educated states (red/slave, Bible humper states) vote Repug, and get screwed economically.

Here's some liberal snobbism:

WTF is wrong with these uneducated people who have voted Repug, over and over and over, for decades and got conned, duped, and screwed, over and over and over?

NOW! they figure out they've been screwed economically,

"revolt" against the Repug establishment, and

STILL re-elect the same Fed and state assholes who keep screwing them

AND

elect a 0.1%er elitist billionaire whose policies are, will be 100% pro-capital / anti-Trash-voters.

Trash's personal failed/corrupt business practices have included importing foreign workers, not paying 100s of suppliers, and illegally battling unions (aka working class) in NV. And he screwed plenty of capitalists (investors) by mismanaging his casinos in bankruptcy.

Uneducated AND uninformed, while spouting stupid shit like "Trash tells it like it is" (ALL lies, and deeply divisive), thinking Trash would be an autocratic King overriding the Repug Congress to help his voters. G M A F B



Why would anybody respect these uneducated, uninformed, conned, duped, racists, xenophobes, misogynists?

Which makes them doctors, not liberal arts majors. Most people, even engineers, take some liberal arts classes.

I read the article before you posted, it's months old.

It does make some points, but facts is facts, Trash/Repug voters, mostly in the red/slave states, but everywhere, keep voting, for decades, to screw themselves financially. That's pretty fucking stupid.

And only now they revolt and expect Trash to help them? That's pretty fucking stupid.

Seems to me that it was those in WI, MI and PA who had voted DEMOCRAT for decades and decades who this time went for Trump. I wonder if you think that they are now uneducated, uninformed, racist, etc now that they've voted REP but weren't when they voted Obama and DEM for decades. The liberal snobs who sit there pondering over racism, sexism, whatever ism don't realize that these people are voting their pocketbooks and don't have the luxury of philosophizing when they're worried about their basic needs being met. So CONDESCENDING to think that they're x, y, z just because they voted REP but weren't when they voted DEM.

They voted Trash/Repug because of their financial distress, ignorant that Trash/Repug won't do anything for them, or the economy in general to float their boats.

They don't understand that Repugs block all good stuff for the 99% from the Fed or states as part of the sociopathic ideology.

St Ronnie blatantly said "govt IS the problem", and that's fundamental to the Repug/VRWC ideology that says govt cannot, must not provide solutions, only problems. Only BigCorp can provide solutions (a LIE)
