I know this place isn't big on polls but this one caught my eye because of the education gap.  It's stark.  Biden is plus 30 with college graduates while Trump is plus 18 with high school or less.  That's insane.  It was the opposite in the 2012 election where Romney got 53% of the college graduate vote (Obama 43%) while Obama got 49% support with those with a high school or less (Romney 44%).  It really shows Trump's unique ability to appeal to the working class (and Democrats/Republicans failures) while at the same time turning off college graduates (some may argue because of the "liberal indoctrination" that universities foster).

I have been reading some polls that have the "working class gap" even wider for Trump.  IF true (and polls-schmolls) that is kind of amazing that a billionaire would connect better with the working class than the Democratic party that was supposed to be all about the working (wo)man.

It does make me wonder though, how the majority of college educated people (again, polls-schmolls) would vote for a dementia patient. That does not seem prudent to me.  ?‍♀️

Not really because he went to the left of them when he started railing about free trade agreements that's antithetical to the Republican's platform (and Dems for the most part) the last 40 years.  There were a lot of Trump/Bernie crossovers in that regard.  The college gap is wider because they see a guy that speaks in fragmented sentences in the White House right now.

This pandemic ruined the economy no matter who is the next president. 


If the demented guy wins, then Covid will cease to exist and the economy will open back up like nothing had happened

Former senior Trump administration official endorses Joe Biden

 

Miles Taylor  who served as a political appointee at the Department of Homeland Security from 2017 to 2019 and as chief of staff to Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, endorsed the former vice president in a video produced by the group Republican Voters Against Trump.

 

He also wrote an op-ed published in The Washington Post calling President Donald Trump "dangerous" for America, 

 

"What we saw week in and week out, for me, after two and a half years in that administration, was terrifying. We would go in to try to talk to him about a pressing national security issue -- cyberattack, terrorism threat -- he wasn't interested in those things. To him, they weren't priorities," Taylor says in the video.

 

"Given what I have experienced in the administration, I have to support Joe Biden for president and even though I am not a Democrat, even though I disagree on key issues, I'm confident that Joe Biden will protect the country and I'm confident that he won't make the same mistakes as this President."

 

In the video, Taylor accuses Trump of directing FEMA to withhold disaster funding to California following devastating wildfires in that state because voters in that state had not voted for him for President.

 

"He told us to stop giving money to people whose houses had burned down from a wildfire because he was so rageful that people in the state of California didn't support him and that politically it wasn't a base for him," Taylor says in the video.

 

Anthony Scaramucci, who briefly served as Trump's communications director, has also voiced his support for Biden.
