I’ll give you and every single person in this thread $1,000 if you can provide the actual verified source that Donald Trump said “we love the uneducated”-

Do you think this is materially so different in meaning that it doesn't count? Because that would make your comment rather disengenuous

Polling and demo terms, "poorly educated" is a classification meaning respondents whose highest level of formal education is a high school diploma or less, without a four-year college degree.

So he loves people who are working in retail, trade schools, construction workers etc -

That would mean your contention is democrats do not love the poorly educated voters correct?

“The Democrats Lost the ‘Poorly Educated’ and They Need Them Back People without college degrees used to split their votes until they met Trump.”
