No More Academics! We need people in politics who live and work in the real world not the hypothesizing world of academia with all it’s faulty theorizing about real life. Knowledge is education and while day dreaming about theories might be interesting, reality is where the rest of the world lives, works and tries to survive, meanwhile the academic supremacists want to create a global utopia, be it one failed theory after another of socialism, communism, or islamism. Hell No! Time to get REAL. Go Trump!

Nassim Nicholas Taleb appropriately refers to them as IYIs intellectuals yet idiots.
“The IYI has been wrong, historically, on Stalinism, Maoism, GMOs, Iraq, Libya, Syria, lobotomies, urban planning, low carbohydrate diets, gym machines, behaviorism, transfats, freudianism, portfolio theory, linear regression, Gaussianism, Salafism, dynamic stochastic equilibrium modeling, housing projects, selfish gene, election forecasting models, Bernie Madoff (pre-blowup) and p-values. But he is convinced that his current position is right.”
