Unfortunately, being “book smart” and possessing logic and common sense, that are much more important in the real world, appear to be mutually exclusive (not always, but in many cases). I worked at a university for many years and witnessed it first hand with the professional academic class.

I witnessed it with someone who, on paper, was perfect. In the real world, not so much.

I totally agree!! I’m the street smart/logical one out of my sisters. My brother has that going for him as well. He and his wife (CA residents) are HUGE TRUMP fans. BUT only after they saw what was happening to media and them persecuting the man. Anyway, my sis is just so dug in I honestly feel sorry for her.

I can barely have a conversation with my college educated friends in upstate New York. So glad I’m in Florida now.
