It’s funny that they continue to blame Trump voters for being low-information voters or having low IQs, less educated than them, yet all I’m seeing is that half of us have the same if not MORE higher education degrees as they do, and those on our side without degrees are actually now MORE politically educated today than ever before. We won because we are more informed, not less. 🤣

Exactly this! I keep seeing posts on X about “low information/IQ Trump voters” and it’s just infuriating. Most of the time I let it slide. If they think we are stupid, they will keep losing. But sometimes I can’t help myself and I chime in with examples of my core friend group (engineers, doctors, CPAs, executives) and the OP vanishes. Funny how that happens! 😏

Remember: whatever they call us is projection. I don't mind them insulting themselves.

I myself have two degrees (one highly technical) and at age 59 am about to go get another one in a completely different field. We are anything but uneducated. They say “well, it’s not talking down to them because we have to pay attention to the demographics and the demographics say MAGA is less educated”. Well I say their “demographics” are clearly as corrupt as their “polls”. 🤣

Sorry, they ARE talking down and it’s landing them in the dog house.

Same. Chemical engineer here. But I’m going in a slightly different direction. I decided to retire and try to let my creative side take a front seat for a while. Although I admit to still downloading large datasets and analyzing things regarding COVID and the elections too. (You can’t take the nerd out of the girl. I can’t help myself! 🤣)

Yeah who was it, Joy Reid or Sonny Hostin? specifically and repeatedly pronouncing "uneducated white women" as the problem? 🤣

Seems that every claim they make is 180 degrees from truth.

They blame the other side for everything they themselves do.

Trump voters actually have MORE information than Harris voters. Level of education had absolutely nothing to do with it. Trump voters sought out information, Harris voters just lapped up whatever the media told them to believe and didn't seem to question anything!

Yep!!! Have resisted the urge to point that out, but have to admit I was tempted.
