If we were to exclude non-whites who have been told for decades that Republicans are racist and want to lynch them, then this is what you get.
according to Pew
I know you guys like to create caricatures of who supports Trump but it's middle class, educated suburbia that voted him in.
Academia usually means > BA or BS.

Calling all right or left wing individuals stupid or discounting all right or left wing art is absurd.
The difference between right and left wing people is rooted in their presuppositions about reality itself.
They see a different construct and have a different belief system.
Moral relativism vs moral absolutism; collective thought vs individual thought; group justice vs individual justice; class warfare vs self empowerment
The truth is that both sides have a role to play in different contexts. Leave it at that and stop being a partisan hack.
I'm casting lines and getting bites today
People here who know me well know better than this statement, that I actually believe that people who think differently than me are inferior in intelligence. I love diversity of thought and learn a lot of conservatives.
Still most of your dichotomies are false. There are moral relativists and moral absolutists on both sides, collective and individual on both sides, group vs. individual justice on both sides. Trump's platform for example is group justice for poor white families who have been betrayed by their government who has been pillaging their labor and sending it abroad in the world in the name of globalism and equilibrium of markets. This is why the whole "cuckservative" thing came about, as the Jeb Bush's and John McCain's care more about their Mexican maids and children than they do white American families who make this country what it is (their belief, not mine).
I know there are a lot of really smart conservatives because I know a lot of them. A lot of my coworkers are conservative and they're doctors or PhDs in their field, and there are a ton of conservatives in social work which always surprises people. And academia isn't a liberal bastion that people make it out to be, people who have spent a lot of time there know this. Some people take a sociology class, are triggered, and then make it out as if college is a big sociology class.. You just have more liberals in academia because you have higher concentrations of smart people and smart people have political ideologies. People who aren't smart don't call themselves conservative or liberal because they don't think about that stuff imo.
