For those who, "want help explaining why Trump won"...
There was only one demographic Trump actually won, uneducated, low-income men.
Trump lost college educated women 61% to 37%.
Trump lost non college educated women 53% to 45%.
Trump lost college educated men 49% to 48%.
Trump won non college educated men 61% to 37%. (MAGA)
Throughout history, tyrants have understood that their major enemy is an educated citizenry.
Slaveholders prohibited the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Putin and Xi censor books and the media.
Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny.
