24 BLUE STATES SHUT

This is a politically motivated con job

It shows that blue states are smarter than red states, and better led.

I am waiting a reply from Mr. know-it-all Kevin that he made, --  "It shows that blue states are smarter than red states, and better led."

Look up college graduation rates.

 

As for quality of leadership, that's obviously subjective. You might say, for example, that a governor whose primary policy is "White Power!!" is a magnificent leader. Or maybe someone who denies Medicaid to his constituents. But I wouldn't.

 

As far as "smarter" goes, though, you could also look up grade school test scores, high school graduation rates, college enrollment, or any of a dozen statistics. Red states are dumber than blue states, by any metric you choose.

 

I speak collectively of course, as there is probably some red state that outperforms one or two blue states.

Why don't you look at the states suffering the most from the virus and which Party is in charge. Blue states might be judged "dumber" by you, but they know how to stay alive while the "smart" red states are dying in record numbers. Book smart is one thing, life smart is another.

Actually, I said that red states are dumber, dum-dum.

 

Virus death rates have nothing to do with the population's intelligence. If they did, everyone in Texas (yeehaw!) would already be dead.
