Donald Trump

[hgblue]

So you don’t think the vast majority of his followers (some 40% of the US) are creationist, religious fanatic, pro life or pro gun?

You can argue the racist element I’d bet as even in the Deep South, not that many are willing to go on record with their thoughts so it would be harder to prove to you.

I await your reply, a reply from someone that’s obviously done zero research into the above, and yet still has the balls to suggest it’s me that’s the moron. Irony indeed. Let me ask you this, in 2020, do you think holding the view that the creation myth (and the Earth being 10,000 years old) is a moronic view or one based on evidence, reason and understanding?

You have evidence that 40% of Americans are morons? I’m all ears.

So far, none of them have been brave to call his mental health as they very obviously see it. It’s a tricky one for sure.

Do you think it's a cultural/American thing?
As in to cast doubts on the figurehead is tantamount to "treason?"

So I’ve already explained why it’s my opinion that anyone, in 2020, in America (with free education to 18) believing the earth is 10,000 years old is a moron. Well here’s the data that 40% do indeed believe that:

As for Trump supporters being religious fanatics, some 80% of Evangelicals support him despite a lifetime of doing everything they preach that they abhor:

Then we come on to the pro-gun nuts, some 77% of NRA members are Republicans or lean Republican:

Then we come on to his support being “Pro Life” (a subject he never had strong feelings on until he realised it was a vote winner in the Deep South with 2/3rds support:

And then I suppose we may as well go on to the education level of his support as opposed to that of his November opponent which shows a hugely inverse correlation between education level and who they are likely to vote for:



I could have left it at the creationist morons to amply support my suggestion, but I thought I may as well back up my other points.

I know you’re a Tory, nothing wrong with that. So am I. But don’t simply equate the conservative = Conservative = Republican. Because it doesn’t. They’re so far to right of the Tories that the two don’t remotely marry up.

Apparently 17.4 Million Brits are morons and racist also which has been said on this thread, I'm also all ears but because it was anti BREXIT it was deemed ok here.

No. They said Obama was a secret Muslim who was born in Kenya.

Quite possibly yeah. I hadn’t thought of it that way before. But I suppose a Head of State is different to a PM although not even our MP’s generally attack a PM in such a way. In public at any rate.

His issue is with my post and it wasn’t me that posted about Brexit. So try not to muddy the two.

So that’s a no then.

 

[SWP's back]

So that’s a no then.

It’s an absolute yes. Also, you must be aware of mean averages. Therefore you must also understand that in a population 49.9% are of below average intelligence.

But hey, if you think that believing the Earth is 10,000 years old is a reasonable, considered, intelligent view, then it says a great deal about you and where you are on the bell curve.

No It wasn't it was Gaudino M that posted it, and I didn't intentionally muddy your post I just stated a fact that in the last hour 17.4 Million Brits were accused of being morons and racist, think the post by him has been removed so lets just move on.
