Conservatives, who deserves to die most from the Trump Pandemic?
I'm genuinely curious on your thoughts.

The 26% of the American population whom are comprised of unemployed, high school-educated, White males who form the majority of Trump's base.[/c]

@swirlie That's the oddest statistic I've ever seen--26% of Americans are white, high school educated, unemployed men.

Yes, it absolutely IS odd! But the startling fact is, that what I have stated is only a known statistic on the Republican side of the coin. This particular statistic was released very shortly after Trump was Inaugurated in January of 2017, whereby the demographic of the Republican voter was focused upon. What was never focused on at the time however, was that the same basic White male percentage as stated, also exists on the Democrat-side of the coin whom voted for Hilary.
What does this mean then? What it means is the following, in terms of approximate known percentages that existed at the time of the Presidential Election: First of all, a few things known to be true...
~ only 49% of the entire American population even went out to vote.
~ this also means that 51% of the entire American population did NOT vote at all... for anyone.
~ of the 49% of Americans who did vote, 51% of those voters had voted for Trump, which included Americans from all walks of life who simply chose Trump over Hilary.
~ of those 51% who voted for Trump, 26% were unemployed, high school-educated White males. The remaining 25% of that 51% were college educated (or higher), fully employed men and women, including college educated but temporarily unemployed stay-at-home moms.
Although any Republican who ever voted for Trump is generally viewed by the Democrats as "Trump's base", nothing could be further from the truth.
Trump's drum-beating, AR-15 loving, NRA-supporting so called 'base', are not actually the college educated, fully employed males nor the college educated fully employed women and stay-at-home moms...
Trump's base is actually comprised of those in the 26% un-employed, high school-educated, White males category. Because there are more of them by a mere 1% than of the others within their own Republican voting group, those comprising that 26% are the ones whom Trump is doing his best to appease, NOT the 25% of mix Race-Republicans whom are the fully employed, higher-educated, tax-paying Republicans with kids and mortgages.
Statistically then, it becomes obvious as to 'whom' it is that are having the most profound effect on the United States government. It sure as hell isn't the highly educated, highly motivated, high tax-paying Republican Americans... right?! It's the unemployed, high school-educated White males.[/c]

Are these statistics from a conservative election study or something?
[c=#008099]
As a matter of fact, they are! Mitch Mcconnell read those statistics during a press briefing shortly after Trump's Inauguration.
No, of course Trump never won the popular vote! Everybody knows that!
But of those in America who DID vote, which was only 49% of the entire US population, only 49% voted for Trump and 51% voted for Hilary which won her the popularity contest. Trump's win came from winning the electoral college and not because he was more popular than Hilary.[/c]
