I think there is a typo in the intro to this article. The transcript says:
"I think ever since Donald Trump came [00:31:00] along and he did succeed at getting a higher percentage people without a bachelor's degree, that a lot of people began to use education as a sort of proxy for Trump vote or for intelligence or something like that."
But the intro says:
"Since 2016, it’s become commonplace to think of having a bachelor’s degree as a sort of proxy for Trump voting among white Americans"
I think there is a "not" missing from that sentence.
I have been looking for some time for a deep dive analysis and conversation regarding the psych/social/behavioral/religious impoverishments that so easily and readily explain the thinking of the Trump voter.
This fits the bill, probably requiring a second listen - at least it will with me.
Fascinating research based information that in many ways validates Trump’s often “say the quiet part out loud” statements that he repeated many times “I love the uneducated”, which btw, has little if any connection to formal education, but more about inherent verbal abilities and a love of learning and being curious.
This podcast successfully explains how the “ I love the uneducated”serves Trump well and so easily satisfies and validates his voters.
