If you’re one of those people who don’t live in coastal cities...

I live in a coastal city and the rest of my family does..all college educated and all voting for Trump.

It’s the blanket statement equivalent of saying all flyover folks are illiterate and all southern folks are illiterate rednecks.

To be sure there are many college-educated who get it and hang just fine with the working class. There are many with degrees who, if they had it to do over again, would have gone to trade school instead.

But there are too high a number of college graduates who are up there on a high horse simply because they went to college and who identify with the elites despite being far from an elite in terms of income.

Trump gets much more of the non-college white vote than he does the college-educated white vote.

I’ve lived in Staten Island. I’ve lived in a lot of places. The college-educated middle class in SI are not like the college-educated middle class in Clarks Summit, PA. The latter are quite snooty whereas those in SI don’t have a stick up their ass.

Hey! Don’t EVER underestimate the number of illiterate Yankee Rednecks north of the Mason-Dixon Line voting for Trump, too! ;)
