Those who wrongly say ALL Trump supporters are "redneck" or whatever you call them, this is just from Massachucetts:

College educated but illiterate...

It's Little Mystery Why So Many College Students Are Illiterate
March 29, 2016 | The American Council of Trustees and Alumni publishes occasional reports on what college students know.
Nearly 10 percent of the college graduates surveyed thought Judith Sheindlin, TV's "Judge Judy," is a member of the U.S. Supreme Court. Less than 20 percent of the college graduates knew the effect of the Emancipation Proclamation. More than a quarter of the college graduates did not know Franklin D. Roosevelt was president during World War II; one-third did not know he was the president who spearheaded the New Deal. But it is little mystery why so many college students are illiterate, innumerate and resistant to understanding. Let's look at it.

Student activists at Brown University complained of emotional stress and poor grades after they spent months of protesting for various causes. They blamed the university for insisting that they complete their coursework. One of the objects of their protest was an op-ed in The Brown Daily Herald, the university newspaper, that was deemed racist because it defended the celebration of Columbus Day. Brown University's faculty recently took care of that and renamed Columbus Day "Indigenous People's Day."

Professor Salvador Vidal-Ortiz of American University told his students that capitalism dehumanizes brown people and black people. If his students had one iota of brains, they might ask him why it is that brown and black people all over the world are seeking to flee to countries toward the capitalist end of the economic spectrum rather than the communist end. Campus Reform reports that Vidal-Ortiz, during the Q&A of a book talk at the University of Virginia, said he tells his students that though he is light-skinned, he refuses to be called white. "I will not be labeled as something that I know is violent," he said.

College administrators are short on guts and backbone. But there is a glimmer of hope every now and then. Young Americans for Liberty at Rutgers University invited Breitbart News' technology editor, Milo Yiannopoulos, who is a homosexual, to give a lecture. Yiannopoulos describes his lecture tour as "The Most Dangerous Faggot Tour." His lecture was titled "How the Progressive Left Is Destroying American Education." There were about 400 students who attended his lecture, plus there were protesters who smeared themselves with fake blood.

That's a cherry picked tiny little survey, if it's even real. Trump supporters overwhelmingly have only a high school education (or less). It's the anti-intellectual crowd, which is exactly what Trump is courting. A group of linguists rated the candidates and found that Trump speaks at a 4th grade level, which of course is intentional on his part since he'd lose support if he used words his followers don't understand.

The guy has a negative 15 point difference between those that have a college degree and those that don't...and he suffers even more when individuals have a postgrad degree. Either you don't know how to interpret falling numbers, or you are trolling. The indication is clearly that the more education you have, the less likely you are to vote for him...there is literally no other valid interpretation given that data.
