    "The surprise, however," Mr. Scott said, "is how many college graduates voted for Trump." That margin was narrow: 49 percent of college graduates voted for Mrs. Clinton, 45 percent for Mr. Trump.

    All along, Mr. Trump’s support was believed to be concentrated among white voters with lower levels of education, and the exit polls bear this out: 67 percent of such voters went to Mr. Trump, 28 percent to Mrs. Clinton. But Mr. Trump also won the white college-educated vote, with 49 percent to Mrs. Clinton’s 45 percent."

    Trump also won 52% of those with some college/associate degree

    Oh I don't know. An evangelical Christian is already able to deeply believe in grandiose fantastical stories repeated endlessly with no evidence. And really now, does anyone believe Don was never involved in any way in an abortion? He pays off hookers for crying out loud, wonder how many abortions he's paid for.

    The fact is that nobody knows how anyone voted, or if they voted at all, for that matter.

    Generalize much?

    Unlike, say, a Trump-hater who is already able to deeply believe in grandiose fantastical stories repeated endlessly with no evidence, and uses a logical fallacy to imply that Trump must have paid for abortions?

    I doubt if they would care if his mistress had one in the middle of Fifth Avenue. All they care about is getting Roe v Wade overturned via the Supreme Court picks. Yep, all the many issues facing our country today -- and that is all they care about.

    Nope....nothing ELISTIST OR BIGOTED here folks. And you wonder why you got your ass kicked. The funny thing...… the continued use of flawed and skewed numbers based upon the information programed into the equation. According to the exit polls after the election Trump won the college educated whitvote by 2%.....according to the NY Times. The Times concluded the polls "MUST BE FLAWED" as its clear Trump never had the support of those who are educated, especially.....the white vote. Trump could never have won because of failed socialist policies, THERE MUST BE A MISTAKE....anyone that voted for Trump "must be ignorant". https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/27/u...rst-place.html

    I don't think they "wonder why" they "got their ass kicked", Ralph. I think they believe they won.
