It could be argued that people who voted for Trump were in the "not college" spectrum[^1], and thus, they would approve of both the anti-woke and anti-science move.

In fact, I would be as bold as saying that most who voted for Trump (a billionaire of dubious conduct, convicted of all sort of crimes) were not billionaires themselves, and thus displayed a certain kind of lack of reasoning and empathy for themselves.

In any case, that majority won, and they get to strengthen themselves and to make the world more to their image. Expect interesting times ahead.

Even more incredible is the amount of educated people who voted for Kamala in your link. It makes me question what “education” is these days if they put their votes behind someone who is so poor at communicating that her handles had to control everything.

Certainly less interesting times with Trump than the alternative, thank goodness.
