well, trumps simple language imho was one of the contributing factors of his victory. it helped him assume the role of the "anti-elite, common people's" candidate despite being a billionaire who was raised with a golden spoon. it helped him deliver his message effectively because he conveyed it in words that the audience would use as well. to achieve the "he tells it like it is"-effect, a candidate has to use common people's language.

obama's speeches were always rhetorically brilliant and a joy to listen to - but I really doubt that he always got his message across effectively, particularly with less-educated listeners.


literally anything with the least bit of substance is better than the "vote for me because i am a woman" rhetoric of hillary

Tell that to my pub quiz team lol.
I know plenty of 'simple folk' by which I assume you mean working class people who didn't go to university.
Maybe it's different in america or maybe I just hang out with the more intelligent among them and avoid the idiot majority but just speaking from experience I think they can handle more than Trump puts out.

50% of college degree holders are perpetually unemployed. Degrees arent a sign of intelligence anymore. Often the opposite

Democrats keep saying Trump voters dont have a college degree because its the only factoid left that agrees with their collective delusion narrative.

well if you are a drumpf voter and have a degree, its obviously in a racist misogynistic major like business, finance, economics etc. Cuz all business people are racist rich reich-wingers from the south but theyre also all dumb inbred hicks!!!!
and if you majored in stem: math and tech and engineering are racist!!! and science majors that learned about things like chromosomes are transphobic!!!!
