On this point, animal-shelter worker Joe was unconvinced: ‘Trump is tapping into the people that are prone to hate, fearmongering and people who are just angry.’ As I move around the pen, ‘I get why they’re angry’ is said time and again. But it’s little more than a throat-clearing exercise. When it comes down to it, the anti-Trump protesters think his supporters are either racist, or plain stupid. ‘People who support Trump are uneducated’, said postgrad student Sally. ‘They don’t have broad minds about what’s going on. I think it’s intelligence.’ For all the talk of ‘making America hate again’, the people who were really being smeared or scapegoated at this rally were Trump supporters – working-class voters who dare to support someone who strays from the PC-politico script. Indeed, the only harsh words thrown at immigrants emanated from the designated free-speech area: as a group of Latin-American men walked past, heading to the rally, a gaggle of college students screamed ‘You’re on the wrong side!’.
There are plenty of reasons to dislike Donald Trump. He’s a crass opportunist, who, for all his talk of sticking it to the freedom-squishing status quo, has more than his fair share of authoritarian tendencies. But this protest in a sleepy New York suburb, and the wretching that Trump has sparked among the cosmopolitan classes nationwide, isn’t really about him. It’s about his supporters: the dumb rednecks who, Sally and Co tell us, know not what they do.
Trump may not go the distance at the Republican convention in July, but this fear and loathing of the masses is here to stay.

Oh good God. I’m a racist homophobe too, I guess. Now I’m stupid and I most likely smell. I probably only have 2 functional teeth.
She couldn’t reach my intelligence if she stood on a stepladder! Why do such idiots get so much publicity?
Cruznadians are all wet ....
“TRUMP SUPPORTERS ARE UNEDUCATED’”
There is absolutely no proof given for this assertion.
This is just more trash trying to discourage people from voting for Trump.
I think that many people from all walks of life and various education level figured out that Trump is the real deal and vote for him, because he wants to and will indeed “make America great again”.
Another useless and IQ sucking post.
The most highly educated of our society are frequently the most stupid.
That is rong I am ejukated.
So, Trump isn’t polling well with the Snowflakes?
Must be Glowball Warming...
This crap is pissing us off. That is called BACKFIRING!!
You could bet your last gold coin that if Cruz was the frontrunner instead they would be saying the same things about his voters. We’re not so dumb that we haven’t figured them out.
All hell would break loose if they said that about democrat voters!
It’s all in against Trump, and the al-in populace is not going to play along.
Trump, Blowing It Up 101...
Lol - I suspect it was well educated people that have created the mess the country is wallowing in currently.
It’s a shame that people as “stupid” as Jeff Sessions, Rudy Guiliani, Phylis Schafly, Jerry Falwell Jr., Dr. Ben Carson, etc., weren’t running the country.
So it’s back to this one again, eh?
it will be ksick/ryan coming out of the convention
Easily manipulated, perhaps. They are not necessarily undereducated, although his big support group is white males without a college education, a statistic that means only that older people are his fans, since that generation lived at a time when a degree was not that important.
Trump is a dinosaur and one of the most old-fashioned nasty and corrupt pols we’ve ever had.
