and have white collar and professional careers. But they are, however, racist, mysoginist, islamaphobic, xenophobic, etc.
They take offense to being lumped in with the poorly educated. These are probably the Trump supporters that I am most disappointed with - as they should know better. I've had a couple of close friends in this category that I've had to part ways with because they are so militant when it comes to these 'ists' & 'phobias'. I just can't friend them anymore because I'm so appalled by their stances. I feel sorry for them and feel doubly bad for their children and grandchildren. It will be the youth that will feel the brunt of a possible Trump presidency. These highly educated Trump supporters get really offended being called out as 'deplorable'.
