So Republicans make more than Democrats, indicating that society feels that their education is of more value, and then makes the claim that they are less educated? The info on salary indicates that Republicans are more educated while the other graph (# college degrees) indicates that Democrats are more educated. Looking at the data, I cannot see how anyone can make a claim on whose party is more educated than the other, but that is just me. But again, you are entitled to think however way you want.

I'm certain than many grad students wish they lived in a world where they were compensated at a level commensurate to or exceeding the educational level of their peers. The fact of the matter is that using salary as a metric of education presumes that women and minorities are paid fairly or that the Republican Party is racially diverse (not largely white). The presumption also ignores that the fact that party income is skewed by the super wealthy making vastly more than the average American, while simulatenously supporting the Republican Party (i.e. fewer people with A LOT more income). It is funny that a right wing publication is noting the less-educated nature of Trump supporters, but you feel it was "purely put out there by the liberal media to paint this false image of Republicans." Come on now lol.
That all being said, your "better educated" wealthy people are also transitioning away from the party.
