    So my takeaway is that the DNC should have been pushing for free college education but they'd prefer a Trump win over taking care of Americans?

    Their post has done nothing to change my opinion about the Dems besides reinforcing it.

      No, whoever made this post is definitely still against free college. The point of college for this type of lib is as a class signifier.

        Oh strongly agreed here. I'm just refusing to acknowledge the progressive narrative-pushing about how democrats are the educated, enlightened ones and the republicans are the yucky, backwards, uneducated ones.

        They see that map and they see one thing - how they could have, if not should have, won. I look at the map and see something entirely different because I not only reject the basis of what they're pushing but because they are holding up yet-another incontrovertible proof of the abject failure of the DNC to do anything to stop people like Trump. If democrats are so goddamned intelligent and educated then how come they can't see the utter policy failure of every modern Democratic nominee that is embodied within this map? I swear these people are one small step away from sticking an exam graded with an F to their fridge doors.

        Can't wait for the next US election though - I hear it's going to be the most important one to ever happen!!

        In their defense, they probably don’t see a college degree as a “sign of wealth”

        …because these types just assume everyone can afford the same opportunities they could.
