That's sloppy and rude.
But generally true... white men with little education is his core support...

Painting with an air brush on high again?

If he said he was leading with non-college educated white men, that might have been ok.

Big difference between "uneducated" and non-college educated.

Pick your adjective... the point is that they don't have a well rounded education... they are simple people...

You know sometimes high-school grads are smarter than the those with masters.

Jobs, Ellison, Gates come to mind.

I understand that and I'm not putting anybody down... it's just that they 4th rung down the education ladder... under-educated at least...

I can't express to you how much I am enjoying this election cycle...

PS I got a message from Wolverine 70 he wanted me to pass along to you TCT:
He says hi to you and that he is enjoying this election season also...

The T Rump vote margin vs. HilLIEry, among white college educated men, was 54% to 39%.
White college educated women went for HilLIEry 51% vs. 45%.

It's kind of surprizing to me that T Rump garnered 45% support from this group of women .


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Check the bus driver votes :razz

This is getting silly...we don't really need to pigeonhole everyone.

David Mein sound really elitist.

I agree the pigeonhole thing is silly but Liberals are grasping for any explanation as to why they lost. Mrs. Clinton gave the real explanation in her speech yesterday, which by the way was an excellent speech. She said we didn't realize how big the divide in the country really was, the reason, plain and simple from the candidate herself. They just didn't realize how unhappy people were over the last 8 years and she paid the price, plain and simple. Yes, there are other reasons that we are all very aware of, but please quit reaching for a reason, she lost. This win for Trump should shake both parties and hopefully both sides will sit down and ask themselves a simple question...How do we get back in touch with The People and earn their trust back? If that's even possible....

My point was that it's even more heavily in favor of Trump but he went right for college to prove something or other....

In talking to folks around work I couldn't find a Trump voter...

That is typical with people who work for the government.

They voted their wallet.

Doesn't everybody? Nobody is going to cut their living standards on the principle of the thing...

Technically I work for a private contractor... but as the district goes (and decides the next contract) so goes my job...
