The day after the election, an NBC News chart circulated on Instagram highlighting exit poll data showing that, roughly, the more education you had, the more likely you were to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris over President-elect Donald Trump. Some liberals used the occasion to look down upon the icky dummies who were too stupid to know they shouldn’t vote for Trump.
Yet Trump’s victory was both definitive and diverse. He won broad swaths of the electorate, making significant gains in New York and California and winning over larger percentages of Latino voters and young voters than in 2020. He also won a majority of first-time voters.
Yes, Trump was able to capture a bigger percentage of the voters who didn’t go to college — from 54 percent in 2020 to 63 percent in 2024, according to those exit polls (which are often revised after the election). In fact, according to an analysis from the Financial Times, the 2024 election represented the first since 1960 that Democrats performed better with the richest Americans than with the poorest Americans. That said, Trump also performed slightly better than previously with voters with an associate’s degree and those with advanced degrees.

The extreme arrogant left: “all on the right are dumb”.
Fonda didn’t move out of the country? Yet?
She also fears swooning in front of the cameras.

Educated? No, Indoctrinated.
“the smugness factor” began with Billary, at the SENATE level.

No college degree is no longer a badge of ignorance. Biggest earners and best people have no imprimatur from the education machine.
It has become a problem.
You bring up a good point. Education slowly ceased being a real education starting decades ago.
Also, It’s HOW one uses one’s wisdom. It’s a tool that can be used for good or for bad...

To a modern democrat/progressive, anyone who gets their hands dirty or sweats by work is thought to be sub human and not as nuanced as them.
We have all seen the ivy League in its ugliness...
She’s working with illiterates, so they’ll vote for Democrats, in the future.
