The people who stormed the Capitol Bldg were more likely to be white collar managers than dumb ass local yokels.
I'm trying to a make a distinction regarding intelligence, because we all know people who we wouldn't consider "stupid" that like/belove Trump. Intelligence isn't an across board thing. World class pianists are not necessarily good at math. Partisan intelligence is about being able to accept unfavorable truths. Our brain is wired to twist unfavorable truths into wins. And some are wired to obey the protocols of the Id (id... not laughing dog). The intelligence for these people could be decent, but their brains are wired to a different set of standards or priorities... and some are just well... deplorable. And some might mistake this guy as a business genius and are people that work really hard to get what they have and make a false assumption Trump is the same.
