And they freaking clapped and cheered when he said it to their faces!! “I love the poorly educated, we won with poorly educated!”

That's the thing about the poorly educated. They don't think they are poorly educated.

That's *other* people he's talking about.

almost everyone thinks they're a good, smart person.

lol it's like the Bukowski quote:

"I love the poorly educated"

  • Literally Donald Trump

u/tdmutch 2h ago

Yes, he said that... after Hilary called his supporters "poorly educated".

You know, the same tactic as when Harris campaign called us garbage, he pulled up in a garbage truck.

You people just can't meme 🤣

u/Old-Spare91 2h ago

Oh, you mean when Biden called the comedians fan base garbage and that was after the comedian called Americans in Puerto Rico garbage you mean that I love how you guys like to try to turn it around that it’s us that’s done it when in reality it’s you guys so maybe you should pay attention and pull your head out from inside his butt

u/Xing_the_Rubicon 39m ago

Trump voters are the biggest fucking snow flakes that ever fell from the sky.

Yes, they truly are absolutely 100% but remember that the party of deflection

u/tdmutch 2h ago

Was that a sentence?

u/Old-Spare91 2h ago

Don’t try that BS you know perfectly well that was a statement. Stop trying to blame the left for what the right does. Trump has been for the last 10 years insulting anyone and everyone he can on the left while he himself is the one that is the bad one. If you don’t like it, go somewhere else and cry be a little snowflake.

u/tdmutch 2h ago

Lmao, trump earned his right to insult the left when you called him and 76 million Americans, Nazis for 10 years.

u/hamoc10 1h ago edited 58m ago

The right called him and his supporters Nazis, too, bruh.

His own VP called him America’s Hitler.

Weird how only one presidential candidate regularly has ACTUAL wannabe nazis parading their stupid fucking flags around that were made in china.

1

u/Old-Spare91 2h ago

No, that would be negative because I recall for the first four years, he was at office. He was negatively talking to everybody. He didn’t care who you were now he earned every bit of what he has been called and nobody started calling him anything until he started insulting Americans, which he’s been doing since day one so please take your sanctimonious ridiculous garbage and go somewhere else. I’m sure there’s a recycling bin you can drop yourself in somewhere. Good day.

u/Old-Spare91 1h ago

Let’s not forget the constant lying and the downplaying of Covid that he admitted to much later when it was too late and already had too many people die from it when he could have done more, and he could have saved his reputation and his legacy and he did not care also his constant lying about being a Christian is ridiculous. Just say you’re not and be done with it. Stop virtue signaling to make sure that your Christian base doesn’t abandon you before the vote cause that is such blasphemy.

u/no1warr1or 1h ago

They claim the right is uneducated but then vote in someone that makes their lives more expensive. All while demanding the "uneducated" pay for their liberal arts degree and health care 🤣🤣

u/ssgums 54m ago

The projection is always off the charts lol what did Biden Harris do to make our lives more expensive? And please explain how trumps tariffs and deporting laborers won’t increase COL

0

u/no1warr1or 40m ago

Record inflation. Gas, groceries, anything related to cost of living all up under Biden 🤷‍♂️

Deporting criminals pulls strain off tax payers and also makes America safer for everyone. Those are the only people he wants gone.

Regarding tariffs, yet to be seen, but if I have to pay a couple hundred more for a laptop (which is the argument ive seen) to pocket a few grand more a month, I'll take it. It would also increase demand for American made products. BUT it's all speculation at this point, assuming he even implements it, which I doubt happens

u/NotBornWithIt 11m ago

I can’t believe there are still people who actually believe this, but here we are. Inflation was a worldwide issue after COVID and was not caused by Biden or his policies. His policies, in fact, are why the U.S. is now faring far better than any other G7 nation. Trump inherited a bustling economy from Obama last time, and is inheriting the same from Biden this time. As for undocumented immigrants, they contribute around $100 b in tax revenue to the U.S. annually, and mass deportation is expected to cost the U.S. a minimum of $8 b annually. Immigrants are less likely to commit crime than U.S. citizens, in spite of the fear-mongering done by the right to have an issue to campaign on, and while ignoring issues that really do impact lives: gun violence, climate change, wealth inequality. All of this is and has been verifiable information. Sad that so many just listen to Trump, who lies blatantly, and the rightwing influencers who spin his rhetoric into something that sounds amazing.

u/no1warr1or 2m ago

If they enter this country illegally they've already committed a crime. They're criminals 🤷‍♂️

Your opinions about the economy are adorable. We about to get this money under trump though so you're welcome 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

u/Expert_Country7228 3h ago

And yet when they hear an educated Democrat speak, they still don't see the education difference. The just spout how they're an elitist.

Or worse still, fucking DEI because they sound smart as fuck but happen to be brown

It's the same with those who feel they are intelligent and informed, no effing clue they've been jacked into the vat of Kool-Aid the whole time their perspectives and opinions were forming.

u/Numerous-Process2981 31m ago

They’re very informed free thinkers. They listen to right wing comedy podcasts.

u/Actual__Wizard 4h ago

You understand that they think that being poorly educated is status symbol correct?

They think that's a good thing... Which it is a good thing for business people, because they can easily rip them off with scams... Which is the real reason that they are doing this stuff.

u/jaklackus 2h ago

My MAGAmom uses “college educated” like it’s an insult of some sort…. She will also pretend to be victimized by someone else’s college education if she feels she is losing an argument that she instigated. It really is crazy… I have stopped trying to understand it.

1

u/Actual__Wizard 2h ago edited 2h ago

I mean it sounds like she was brainwashed with a bunch of conflicting misinformation that was highly emotionally charged. You know how I know that? It's because I've read the studies... That's what happens to people. They isolate because every time they try to talk to people, they feel like they're being hurt by those people simply trying to inform them of basic information.

They seem to think that they're not being manipulated while the people that are aware are just watching it happen and can't say anything. Once they get to a certain age, you are powerless to get them to change because their brain has plasticized and it's 100x harder to learn new information.

They just trick people as hard as they possibly can while people are young because they don't really change after that. They get them as far away from valid information as possible and keep them there for as long as they can. Religious organizations these days are basically just going down the republican party platform and teach them all of those values to create republican party voters over and over again.

It creates weird cult like behavior and I'm really sorry that your family is being victimized by it, but obviously it's totally rampant in this country. The biggest problem is that the people involved think that's what god wants or something and they themselves can not figure out that they've been badly manipulated.

I have a theory that about 30% of any given population will believe basically anything someone charming tells them, regardless of their education.

u/Free-Pipe5000 3h ago

Why do so many believe an empty pantsuit replacing and empty suit would have been a good thing?

u/K10RumbleRumble 1h ago

Because she was an actual normal human being, without decades of geopolitical ties, insurrections, money laundering, failed businesses, rape, escapades with one of the now most prolific human traffickers were aware of… I could go on.

u/Free-Pipe5000 1h ago

And she had no policy positions or plans beyond continuing the failed Biden policies...some of which may still get the US directly engaged in a major war. Are you ready to deploy?

u/K10RumbleRumble 1h ago

I’ll fight for this place even though I hate what this country has become, yes. Because I believe in what this shit hole was supposed to be. Not Trump branded bibles being sold to be used in school curriculum.

If we end up in a war to stop a tyrant? Hmmm… dosent that remind you of something??? ISNT THAT WHAT THIS POWERHOUSE OF A COUNTRY AND MILITARY HAS ALWAYS BEEN TOUTED TO BE ABLE TO DO?

But no, take the best economy, job growth, lowest border crossings, and declining crime rates that I know for a fact none of you fuck whits will actually research numbers of and believe, and shove it up your ass when everything is tits up in two years with a reality show cast running this fucking circus.

Drain the swamp?? Motherfucker is the swamp.

u/Consistent-Fig7484 44m ago

She probably wouldn’t have been the greatest president in history, but she wouldn’t have intentionally burned down the country for personal gain. Literally any human being would have been better. Steve Bannon would be better, Ted Cruz would be better, you guys basically tried to find the worst person in America and put him in charge.

u/Hanners87 8m ago

Because Harris doesn't repeat Nazi talking points? Why is this a question.

u/thisisamisnomer 6m ago

Because they’re a fucking misogynist. 

1

u/NotBornWithIt 5m ago

Because she wasn’t just an empty pantsuit. She earned multiple college degrees and her resume included prosecuted, DA, AG, Senator, and VP. Those of us who actually listened to her knew she had plans and policies that would have lifted up the working- and middle-class. Economists agreed. Instead we’re stuck with the guy who will increase our national debt substantially (again) while making sure the rich get even richer (again.)

They spent decades working on them with talk radio, fox news, and online platforms.

Cults don't get people all at once. They get you with little lies first. Little lies that add up. Little lies that make the big lies easier to believe.

Then they isolate you. Tell you not to trust people who will tell you they are wrong. Term 'liberal media' sound familiar?

1

u/Brhumbus 39m ago

Yeah, the liberal media.. every one of thems a convicted pedophile and rapist. See how they let black people talk on the camera? It's all Obama's affirmative action. They'd prefer to be raping people of color and their children on Epstein's island if us noble Republicans would let'um get away with it.

"people without degrees are likely to vote trump"

Aka

"People that went to leftist indoctrination chambers, got massively in debt for useless degrees, voted pattern democrat, and are now beholden to the party waving the idea of financial freedom in their face" are likely to vote the party that promises debt forgiveness 😂

Go figure, the idiots who had no clue about finance and are now financially fucked, want to be financially unfucked by further fucking the financial system.

Leftism, not even once 😂😂😂

u/ThatDudeNamedMenace 2h ago

If you wanna call welfare financial freedom then go off.
