In the last few weeks, Americans (and the media) have watched in awe as a New York real estate magnate prone to bellicose behavior and hyperbole has become the GOP's leading candidate for the White House.
But how did this come to be? A lot of it has to do with education.
Trump's support is strongest with Republicans in the Midwest, conservatives across the country who do not have a college degree and (perhaps not surprisingly) those who report the most negative views of immigration and Mexican immigrants in particular, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll released last week.
To be clear, the poll found that 60 percent of all Americans support the idea of offering undocumented immigrants currently in the United States some form of legal status, and 57 percent told pollsters they believe that immigrants strengthen the country. But there are plenty of people who see things differently. And those people appear to be concentrated among whites, Republicans and those with lower levels of education.

Well it was you and your ‘RAT comrades who dumbed them down, Janell. Congratulations!!! Dummy!
Hey turnabout’s fair play.
Wow. Pulling out all the stops.
Do we have cooties, too?
Whereas Democrap voters are sooo intelligent (snort)
All I had to read was the headline.
I refuse to read the article.
Nope.
Janell Ross is a reporter for The Fix who writes about race, gender, immigration and inequality.Sure; no agenda there.
If ignorance is why the writer believes Trump is doing well then she’s the one without a clue.
now tell me about that 99% group that voted for Obama....all college educated??
The media is going crazy. They tried to trash Trump as they always do to Republicans who pose a threat to their
stranglehold on power. Didn’t work. They don’t know what to do. They’re going to have to go back to his third grade records to “find out” that he bullied a girl.
consider the source> Washington ComPost.
Call me stupid. That’s the way to steer my vote, LOL.
LOL the elites at the Washington Compost, who all voted for Obama twice, have nothing to brag about when it comes to intelligence. This colossal failure wouldn’t have been re-elected if the suffering Middle Class had been the only voters in 2012.
Imagine if they vetted Obama in this manner?
Would they say that about Obama voters too?
I really didn’t need to look her up on the web but I did. Oy!
Surprised? You shouldn't be...
“Janell Ross is a reporter for The Fix who writes about race, gender, immigration and inequality.”
Another snobbish millennial social-justice warrior that thinks that snark is a credible way to present an “argument”.
Best New Headline so far today . . .
