WHITE Democrats actually like to believe like they are smarter than everyone else in some bizarre academia arrogance - when they are not even academics - is highlighted by the Democratic Party's open hatred of white people without a college education, while love non-white high school dropouts they depend upon to win elections.
WHITE Democrats/progressives (no longer liberals but corporate fascists) with college degrees think they are smarter - while sobbing they can't find a decent job to pay their meager colleges loans - most less than what a nice new car would cost.

Democratic candidates use talking points drafted by consultants having no relationship to what the candidate either has ever done or ever will do, trying to seem smarter than everyone else - basically spitting at the average voter while doing so. They campaign to the rich, white Hollywood limousine crowd, while promising average people everything for free that they'll take from "the rich people" - though NONE EVER propose ANY changes to the tax code that exists so rich people pay no taxes.
President Trump, instead, believes in communicating with a majority of Americans - and it drives arrogant - but ignorant - progressives crazy.
HEY IDIOTS! THIS WHY TRUMP WON! It is why 60,000 people go to his rallies and maybe 200 go to the Democrat candidate's rallies.
