They underestimate our education at their own learning expense.

Its more than that...its an appeal to fence sitters to not forget about their prerequisite white guilt.

Sort of reminds me of those conversations where the other feller says "don't know why you don't like me," and then slaps you in the face. There's a certain lack of education there, to be sure, but it may not be where NPR thinks it is.

Rural vs. urban...
Workers vs. the entitled.
Horse sense vs. progressive nonsense.
America lovers vs. America insulters.
Authentic men and women vs. metrosexuals, queers and pajama boys.
Rugged individuals vs. pussies.
Think I got it...

So independent, rugged, stalwart Americans are behind Trump, while pussified, metrosexual weenies are backing Hillary?

Okay. I know which camp I want to be in.

Oh Trump has some pussified, metrosexual weenies "supporting" him too. They just wet the bed everytime he says something the left gets offended over.

Well, it is part of it. Us people who don’t live in congested cities are sick of smarmy jack-wagon city folks running the show and stealing our money and passing laws to please their liberal sensibilities. Sick of it!

There are probably very few of those, and I suspect they’ll have nervous breakdowns before the election.

“Humans appear to have some need to look down on someone; there’s just a basic tribalistic impulse in all of us. And if you’re an elite white professional, working-class whites are an easy target: You don’t have to feel guilty for being a racist or a xenophobe. By looking down on the hillbilly, you can get that high of self-righteousness and superiority without violating any of the moral norms of your own tribe.”
-J.D. Vance
