Trump and Low IQ Voters

[Doodley]

5. Racism and misogyny are drivers of Trump's support. After all, he was the most openly bigoted

prospective nominee among Republicans, and there's a reason why he "won." Also, his support was a reaction to Obama, often described by Republicans as the worst president or as weak, without a single shred of evidence to support that.

Studies show a correlation between racism and IQ. For example, a study of 45,000 whites, found that racist views were much more prevalent among those who scored lower on intelligence tests.

So, yes, Republicans are less intelligent. They seek simple answers to complex problems. They don't understand the importance of science. They focus on grievances, including race and anyone who is different, rather than a true vision. Trump is their perfect president, simply by expressing their grievances. They remain impressed by Trump, even though he has failed to achieve anything that actually makes America better.

I think your estimates on IQ are about right.
