I can assure you that it wasn't THAT much better 30 years ago.

Oh yes. Obama had a 13 point lead over Romney on people with a graduate degree and a 1 point lead for voters with some college, while Romney had a 4 point advantage over Obama on college graduates.

And the Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos. Personal wealth is estimated to be US$ 50 billion which could get him a council seat among the world elites.

What proof is there that they did a poll. Maybe they just wrote the article to say what they wanted you to believe.

MSM CONTROL IS LOW INFO

That could be because he has spoken out against illegal immigration, which hurts less educated Americans more than anyone else. They are the ones that would be working in restaurants, hotels, construction, meat packing and landscape. So it would be smart of these less educated Americans to not want several million illegals bidding for the same jobs.

Could this be because less educated people (in general- there are exceptions to everything) more easily fall prey to people making sales pitches or entertaining presentations? Perhaps not because they aren't capable of being intelligent, but because their educational background hasn't exposed them to exercising them to pull back the curtain to see beyond an entertaining dog and pony show and a collection of flippant quips. In short they're not political scientists, and politicians love this.

Not that I would call Trump exactly charismatic, because he's made some real blunders from a political standpoint, but for someone who sees him as someone who is not afraid to speak their non politically correct vision of the truth, without sugar coating it, Trump is seen as some sort of folk hero, against some of the other candidates, who are seen as more politically calculated and "stiff". Even if Trump's policies would work against their interests. This may apply to Trump, but this scenario happens over and over again with whoever the "shiniest" candidate is.

They love open borders and illegal immigration even calling those who are against illegal immigration "nativists". Of course, they will slant and twist themselves into a pretzel to push their point of view.
