The American people are really ignorant, as any schoolteacher could tell you in a moment of candor, which is not permitted in “educational” circles.
Lots of teachers are dumb as hell. I don’t know the percentage but I’ll bet most of the teachers wouldn’t know how to CALCULATE the percentage if they were given the numbers.
These people turned out exactly as their teachers intended. Sadly, most of them will vote, many several times, whether they go to the polls or not.
I live in a county that votes R about 70%. rats don't even run in local elections. A few years back I was scouting the democratic socialists of America website and found a job placement service. Low and behold, there was the local school district advertising for teachers. I passed this info on to a member of the school board and a week later it was gone. I never got an explanation of where it originated, but I know that many of the school staff are hard left. I think the school board is just too lazy to weed them out.
