At some point during the discussion, “That’s your education talking,” will be said, derogatorily, as a general dismissal of everything I said.
They truly believe this is a legitimate response because to them education is not to be trusted. Education is the enemy of fundamentalism because fundamentalism, by its very nature, is not built on facts. The fundamentalists I grew up around aren’t anti-education. They want their kids to know how to read and write. They are anti-quality, in-depth, broad, specialized education. Learning is only valued up to the certain point. Once it reaches the level where what you learn contradicts doctrine and fundamentalist arguments, it becomes dangerous.
An Insider's View: The Dark Rigidity of Fundamentalist Rural America
Rural, Christian, white Americans have let in anti-intellectual, anti-science, bigoted, racists into their system as experts like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, any of the blonde Stepford Wives on Fox, every evangelical preacher on television because they tell them what they want to hear and because they sell themselves as being “one of them.”
The truth is none of these people give a rat’s ass about rural, Christian, white Americans except how can they exploit them for attention and money.
None of them have anything in common with the people who have let them into their belief systems with the exception they are white and they “speak the same language” of white superiority, God’s will must be obeyed, and how, even though they are the Chosen Ones, they are the ones being screwed by all the people and groups they believe they are superior to.

Lmao.
The left is trying everything they can think of to undermine Trump support, even if it undercuts their own narrative on all of his 'spooky' extremes.
They still don't get it.
We get it, you guys voted a liar, this is gonna be good.
That's Rich coming from a Hillary fan
delete and try again.
Now find one post where i ever said i was a hillary fan, good luck with that, da man said bad words againts trump, da man is bad.
Even if I don't actions and words speak louder and didn't you say you'd take Hillary over Trump at some point in time?
"He actually is closer to Sanders' ideals than what Hillary started out as. He mentioned health care and education and not letting anyone starve to death....long before she did. I think he just had to put on the "reality tv star" mask to sustain the attention of the masses. Now that it's less of a circus, he can begin to present his cases rationally.......
I actually think he's sincere! A big-mouth Jackie Gleason type - no filter, no reins or leash, no handlers....
he's just...Donald. And he knew - instinctively - what he had to do to gain center-stage, and he knows how to now walk it to the place he wants to be.
I don't think he'd be so awful....I used to think it was scary to imagine him with world leaders...but now I think he'd actually be serious and effective."

But how would one feel superior to others if not able to gloat before anybody else?

Don't forget that Trump is smarter than most. If he tells everyone he's going to prosecute Clinton, Obama will pardon her.

Exactly! I also will wait and see what occurs once he takes office officially. As far as Clinton, there are already other current investigations ongoing. Trump really does not need to focus on her at this time.
