Liberals, You’re Not as Smart as You Think
By Gerard Alexander

Mr. Alexander is a professor of political science at the University of Virginia.

I know many liberals, and two of them really are my best friends. Liberals make good movies and television shows. Their idealism has been an inspiration for me and many others. Many liberals are very smart. But they are not as smart, or as persuasive, as they think.

And a backlash against liberals — a backlash that most liberals don’t seem to realize they’re causing — is going to get President Trump re-elected.


Thoughts?

Interesting piece, and I think it brings up some good points about attacking Trump voters and not Trump.
