American Thinker-
By Clarice Feldman
This week CNN’s Don Lemon and the odious Rick Wilson laughed about how stupid Trump supporters are to believe that the president is smarter than the elitists, in which apparently they include themselves.
Reason’s Jim Lundgren responded with an analysis that shows Trump supporters are actually smarter than their opponents. We didn’t need this analysis, actually, since the House Democrats this week nailed this point.
Ace of Spades Headquarters accurately sums up some of the Reason essay:
On the verbal ability test (WORSDUM) not surprisingly the median number of vocabulary questions correct was the same for both Clinton and Trump supporters [snip] The mean verbal ability score for Trump supporters was 6.15 words correct, while the mean verbal ability score for Clinton supporters was 5.69 correct, a difference of nearly half a question on a 10-question test. This moderate difference is statistically significant at p<0005.
Further, Trump supporters score significantly higher on verbal ability (6.15 correct) than the rest of the public combined (5.70 correct) whereas Clinton supporters score significantly lower on verbal ability (5.69 correct) than the rest of the public combined (5.98 correct).
This should not be too surprising. On the 22 General Surveys using the verbal ability scale since 1974, for every single one, conservative Republicans score significantly higher than the rest of the public combined. As for Republicans overall, they score significantly higher in verbal ability than democrats in all five decades, including the 2010’s combined.
In 1996, the GSS employed another module lifted from a standard 1Q test, one testing analogical reasoning. Again Republicans and conservative Republicans in 1996 performed significantly better on analogical reasoning than the rest of the public and significantly better than Democrats.
Lundgren also reported that “Clinton supporters perform significantly worse than the rest of the public on the same six science questions on which Trump supporters perform better than Clinton supporters.” (This may explain the Democrats’ greater propensity to fall for gloom and doom predictions.) Lundgren concludes: read more

Don Lemon: “we are all Fredo now” … Rachael Madcow: “who? … what?”
A high lead diet is not healthy.
They all have obama’s grades at columbia, and they’re all also Constituitonal law professors. And community organizers. And have the vocabulary of a ten year old.
‘Democratic Congressman Hakeem Jeffries,…“The analogy is not applicable to the present situation because first, to the extent that opposition research was obtained, it was opposition research that was purchased.”’
