42. Unfortunately, they aren't all that uneducated.
Not by half. They have an average income reported to be in the $70,000 per year range. You don't get that kind of income with educations.

They're just Mean and Selfish and Racist and willing to be political tools of the right in the hope of being rich some day. But you are right that they also recruit a lot of Stupid people to swell their ranks as well.

We can't make the mistake of thinking that they are all stupid though. They haven't caused this much damage and remained a coherent movement so long without having a lot of smart people in organizational positions. It takes smart people working hard to keep a movement together. :(

We need our smart people working just as hard to take them down. They certainly give us enough ammunition with all of their racism and conspiracy theories.
