2. The moron is the most arrogant voter

The college educated liberal is called arrogant and elitist by the media because we call stupid people stupid

The reality is, it is the moron that is vastly more arrogant. They think their ignorance is superior to your facts. They cannot be persuaded by reality. They believe in the mythical strawman liberal, the mythical pure rural voter, the mystical big city of urine and death, the illegal immigrants of laziness and welfare. They are Christian, you are the devil. Just think how elitist that is! Hey, I'm the God's chosen and my party is Christian and liberals cannot follow God. Talk about fucking elitism. But the media ignores this shit. If you can string a policy talk to a paragraph instead of a Tweet you're an elitist and arrogant. If you talk about windmills cause whales to die while your followers call you Jesus 2.0, you're a man of the people.
