The average Trump voter is intelligent and well-informed.
According to a Economist/YouGov national poll conducted in January, nearly 20 percent of Trump’s supporters say they do not approve of the Emancipation Proclamation, Abraham Lincoln’s executive order that freed the slaves in the Southern states during the Civil War.
Of the 2,000 U.S. adults who participated in the poll, 13 percent said they either slightly or strongly disagreed with Lincoln, while 17 percent said they weren’t sure.
The same survey found that a third of Trump’s supporters believe that Japanese-American internment during World War II was a good idea.
According to a Public Policy Polling survey conducted earlier this month, a third of Trump’s supporters in South Carolina say they would “support barring gays and lesbians from entering the country.”
The same poll found that 38 percent “wish the South had won the Civil War,” while 70 percent “wish the Confederate battle flag were still flying on their statehouse grounds.”
And though most Republican primary voters in South Carolina (78 percent) disagreed with the idea that whites were a superior race, only 69 percent of the brash billionaire’s backers did, compared with, say, supporters of Ohio Gov. John Kasich (92 percent) or those of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (89 percent).
“Mr. Trump’s popularity with white, working-class voters who are more likely than other Republicans to believe that whites are a supreme race and who long for the Confederacy may make him unpopular among leaders in his party,” Lynn Vavreck, a professor of political science at UCLA, writes in the New York Times. “But it’s worth noting that he isn’t persuading voters to hold these beliefs. The beliefs were there — and have been for some time.”
Exactly, Ms Vavreck.
These are our views.
All Trump is doing is giving a voice to the voiceless.
