Poisoned minds from growing up in a toxic atmosphere.

Because college these days is an indoctrination center.

More like ‘College Indoctrinated’...

That said, depending on how questions are asked poll takers can get just about any answer they want to hear.

It’s how they knew Hillary had a 96% chance of being elected President...

Just a bad poll from a poor media outlet.

A scientific poll would have polled Trump voters and looked at results from various questions.

This is crap.

Mind you, that story about the teacher confounding “society” with “government” occurred in the middle of the Eisenhower Administration.

It’s how they knew Hillary had a 96% chance of being elected President........... (and cried and stamped their feet when she didn’t.) That’s what you get today via College. Political cry babies. Back when, you lost, OK, wait till next time. No impeach, impeach. impeach until that wonderful year of 1968 when America turned into political $#!T and brought us what we have today, a generation of Rock Star voters. Party on!

I, too, am a white male and graduated college in 1978. I don’t think Trump is racist but RIGHT. They obviously used data from hipsters and millennials indoctrinated over the past 10-15 years by left wing socialist professors who have never been away from academia and always waiting on someone to fund their pet projects with grants. Waiting on a handout. Typical of a socialist.

When they don’t know the difference between a boy and a girl it’s not surprising that they don’t know the difference between a “racist” and a “culturist”.

Because they are not “college educated” they have been “leftist indoctrinated.”

Bingo.

Because College-educated kids are programmed,they can’t think for them self and trust every word the programmer says.

College-educated whites are more likely to believe:

Trump is racist.
Blacks cannot be racist.
Men are bad.
Women are good.
Christians are superstitious simpletons.
Progressives are super intelligent.
Gasoline cars are bad.
Electric cars are good.
Paying your debt is bad.
Government paying your debt is good.

That’s mathematically impossible...
;)

It’s even more impossible to have 300 percent less of something but college “educated” people say that sort of thing everyday now;)

Even “journalists” use such expressions. I think they need to get a good basic arithmetic book from 1955.

Sounds like Captain Outlier is a typical liberal who can “outlie” any conservative without trying.

Pretty much.
He thinks Clinton’s “depends on what your definition of “is” is.” is a clever argument.

Good Question. The final paragraph sums it up completely.

Students are living in a four-year echo-chamber of false information dominated by the Democratic machine which results in a skewed understanding of the political landscape before us. One can only expect such shocking poll results.

I don't know if I'll ever be able to 'accept' a democrat President again...

I’m a college educated white and I don’t believe Trump is racist. In fact, I think someone has to be pretty simple minded to accept the brainwashing coming from the media that Trump is racist. Trump’s motivations are pretty clear when it comes to immigration, he’s trying to preserve and improve the USA’s economic position and you can’t do that by allowing a flood of people from the third world with little education or job skills that the rest of us are going to have to support.

I have seen absolutely nothing from Trump that makes me think he’s got a racist bone in his body, and anyone intellectually honest would say the same thing. As Trump Jr. once said, “my father only sees one color and that’s green”.
