Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Why is 38% so stupid?
Well, of that 38%, probably 8% are undecided. That leaves 30%. Of that 30, as someone else mentioned, some of those are sheeple from religious stuff. The rest? They're literally holding up Swastikas and chant "Jews will not replace us". Maybe not all of them are supporters of the Nazi party. Some are probably just klansmen.
You're basically looking at the evil underbelly of America. You know, Republicans.
Decades of underinvestment in education.
Religion teaches you not to question things that don't make logical sense, he preys on those religious folks.
Bear in mind, in these polls "Republicans" only comprise less than a third of the overall population. In the US it's about equal proportions of "Republican," "Democrat," and "Unaffiliated" and only about 2/3 of the US population actually votes. Therefore, when you see "38% of Republicans believe XYZ, you may think that's 19% of the total US population, but in reality it's only about 12%. Still high, but consider that about 20% of the adult population can't accurately answer the question "does the earth rotate around the sun, or does the sun rotate around the earth "
Why are they all so fucking stupid?
