Education and the Rise of Donald Trump

I just met a woman from Zurich, and the conversation turned to the Trump rally that’s taking place here in this rural part of Central California.  As it turns out, Biden is vacationing here and has opted to make a short speech.  The Trump supporters are protesting, as a means to tell the president that “he’s not welcome here.”

The Swiss lady said, “This would never have happened in Europe, purely because people there are well educated.  Sadly, the United States has deprioritized education, which has made it possible for the rise to political power of a truly terrible person.”
