But here we are and Trump is going to be President. We Americans are on the whole, incredibly stupid people.
Pretty sure it's fair to say the average American voter IQ is much less than it was 20 or 30 years ago considering we've elected Trump, Biden, Trump in the past three elections. Nothing wrong with acknowledging this stupidity and trying to deal with it in advance of 2028 so that another Trump or Biden isn't elected.
Pretty sure you have no data to support your sweeping statement.
NP..check out Gallup. 54% of Americans ages 16-72 have under a sixth grade literacy rate. We've become the stupidest country of the free world.
Please link the Gallup study. My Google search returned the National Literacy Institute. By the way, it also said most of those with below sixth grade level literacy are foreign born, so I'm not sure this is the critique against American intelligence that you think it is.

There have always been a high percentage of illiterate people in this country yet we've for the most part been able to elect fit, qualified, and worthy presidents up until recently. Being illiterate doesn't necessarily guarantee someone to be clueless and careless when it comes to politics and government.
Stupidity and carelessness are likely reasons why Americans elected Trump and Biden. Illiteracy is less likely to be a primary reason.
I love all of these people trying to dismiss the importance of low literacy rates in electing Trump. If people weren't so poorly educated, they wouldn't be so susceptible to voting against their self interests. Remember Trump said from the onset of his first run that he " loved the uneducated ". We have to own that America is majority stupid.
That’s why he wants to eliminate the Dept of Education. People are in favor of it too because they love bread and circuses.
Yes, American public schools are doing so well under the guidance of that gaggle of idiotic bureaucrats known as the Department of Education. How dare Trump question their value?
We have seen Democrat plans for education. Weaken/eliminate advanced math and other advanced subjects, as well as gifted programs, Group work to let the better students cover for the weaker students. In Oregon, they eliminated graduation requirements. Algebra in 9th grade for all gets pushed wherever parents aren't noticing.

As opposed to the current incompetent fascist government?

Canada doesn't have a federal department of education. And yet they consistently have higher academic scores for reading, math, science literacy, etc.
There are many ways of doing things. Interestingly, the same people on this thread who think the US is bombing educationally also believe we should keep doing it the same way, and are outraged by the concept of moving this to the state and locals, where students may be better served than they are under the current structure.

I'm a liberal democrat but this. I mean things are clearly not working. Not sure how people believe our current govt works effectively? Man, we need overhauling for sure. Like all of it. Not suggesting Trump is the right leader of this effort but at least he's admitting change is needed.
Exactly. States are supposed to be the laboratories of Democracy. Let the states innovate and other states can follow the successful models if they want.
Lots of states are in the business of killing women now. Lest you forget, we are the UNITED States. Basic rights should be guaranteed. You do know that states said in federal filings they wanted pregnant teens because it meant more federal $$ for the states. So, no, it shouldn’t be up to the states. Unless you like serfdom.
Kamala Harris lost because she said things as stupid as this.
People don’t like it when women use their voices.
No, people don't like it when anybody (man or woman) say ridiculous things.

She put Trump to shame during the debate.
I don’t even think her answer on The View that she couldn’t really think of anything she would do differently from Biden was particularly damning. She is his Vice-President, what the heck could she really have said?
And this is coming from someone who voted for Trump, but I would have done so no matter who was on the Democratic ticket.

On the other hand, Biden and Harris truly are not smart, and Biden appears to have dementia on top of that.
