“I am a highly informed voter and I see the benefits of trump. Actually, I am so highly informed and so smart that I can see right through your misrepresentation of trump’s positions.”

The statement wasn’t referring to you, I guess. I didn’t take offense, either. But, I haven’t been branded yet. Still open.

You may be a highly informed voter. And I have no doubt of your intelligence.

Thus, you cannot deny the NUMEROUS Trump supporters who have claimed, ON THIS SITE, that they will no longer watch Fox, Levin, listen to Limbaugh, read RedState, Breitbart, National Review...the list goes on and on. Further, they will not engage in a discussion of philosophy and policy differences.

No, they’d rather excoriate the messenger and try to demonetize the source.

So, the question arises: If you don’t read anyone/listen to anyone that disagrees with you...and most don’t...doesn’t one’s pool of information begin to form a smaller and smaller pool? Until, one reads nothing from anyone that has said something negative about his candidate?

And that, I believe, would describe a low-information voter.

It’s called living in an echo chamber. Only reading/listening to those who agree.

What ever happened to “...iron sharpens iron...”?

So, like Romney was “correct” about the 47%, Cruz is right about low-information voters. I don’t believe he meant ALL of them; like Trump didn’t mean ALL Mexicans were rapists. But the general point stands.

And neither group liked being called that. I’m sure I’ll get all kinds of vitriol over this. But it didn’t make it any less accurate.

Has Trump promised to eliminate any government agencies?
