I used to think that but I know a large number of educated people who were a big fan, at least the first presidency... and I'm in Canada
This argument doesn't hold water. The largest demographic backing trump is the boomers who have not been in the education system for 40-50 years. You're telling me the pinnacle of our education system was before 1960? I just don't buy that argument.
Should we improve our education system? Absolutely! Is it the single contributor to the worldwide authoritarian pivot of the last decade? No.
