Trump Hates Educated and Informed Voters, and I Know Why

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Trump’s supporters are suffering from Trump’s many failed and destructive policies. Most remain loyal members of his cult. These are “Trump’s people,” and the only men and women in America who do not reject his attempts to replace democracy with fascism.

I doubt most Americans are aware that today the United States is a plutocracy/oligarchy. Trump and his 902 billionaires/oligarchs control everything in America today, without exception. Fact: a plutocracy cannot be sustained in a democratic society. Only a fascist regime can maintain the status quo.

This is why Trump fears and even hates well-educated and informed Americans. The truth is his greatest enemy, and only those who choose ignorance over fact could possibly support Trump after all the damage he has done to their futures.

We cannot forget the facts. In 2020, Trump was solely responsible for the massive number of American lives lost related to Covid-19. His ignorance and apathy could have prevented the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives if he had taken immediate action to prevent or minimize the threat of a deadly coronavirus approaching America.

Trump receives, but refuses to or is incapable of reading the Presidents Daily Brief. However, in December of 2019, the Brief contained information that a probable world health emergency had begun in China’s Wuhan Province, and was moving across Asia, moving towards Europe. His response did not come until early in 2020. Not knowing what to do, he told the American people that “It will just go away.” He did nothing until March when Americans began to die from Covid-19.

In 2025, Trump’s destructive decision to place tariffs on nearly every nation in the world are beginning to affect consumers, including Trump’s most adamant supporters.

In Georgia, Jessie Meadows runs a flower shop. Her husband, Carter, runs a funeral home. Many of the flowers purchased in our country come from South America. The price of flowers and other non-essentials have increased by more than 17 percent. Many of their customers are refraining from purchasing large amounts of these perishable items.

Jessie and Carter will lose thousands of dollars. They are very concerned about the survival of their businesses.

However, don’t worry. Trump is not concerned. His oligarchs are doing very well. Trump’s tax cuts and other measures are allowing these 902 men and women to experience enormous growth.

Exit polls during the 2024 election told us that the men and women who voted for Trump mistakenly believed the lies coming from Fox News, Newsmax, and other fake news networks, that he was an “economic genius.” The truth is, his failure to lead in the fight against Covid-19 nearly placed our nation in a depression. President Biden rescued another failed Republican president.

Today, Trump’s failed fiscal policies are moving our nation closer and closer to a second Great Recession.

Be informed. Refuse to watch all television news broadcasts and read. You will learn many things, most importantly, the truth.
