How do you measure intelligence in the United States?

One way of measuring intelligence in the United States is by their political affiliation. At the very bottom the most stupid people in America are the Trump supporters. Very backward thinking people. Then you have the religious nut jobs the Christians. Then you have the rest of the Republicans. Next are the corporate Democrats. And the most intelligent and advanced people in the United States are the Progressive Democrats.

I usually measure it by whether or not a person sees a huge body of humans and assumes they are identical.

Saves time.

@Mamapolo2016 If they’re watching FAUX Noise that’s a very bad prognostic indicator!

@KunsanVeteran make no mistake. I despise what is happening currently and I despise the blowhards who are doing it.

I also point out that the most brilliant people on the planet, according to the OP, assisted in electing those blowhards by not taking the right approach, which for me casts doubt on their level of intelligence. It even makes me wonder if they actually wanted the election results we got, if they’re so intelligent and all…

Just my opinion. I’m middling smart at best,

@Mamapolo2016 Well in my circle of friends about 30% voted for him the first time—although I believe that they were mostly voting against Hillary

In 2020 about 15% voted for him

Of those who voted for in either 2016 or 2020 , all but two either voted for Harris/Walz or didn’t vote at all

Now, my circle of friends includes a lot of veterans and a lot of people with advanced degrees
