The Tastes of Clinton and Trump Supporters

I found this interesting. A lot of Trump supporters seem to be evangelical, though Hillary isn't exempt from this (with a Joel Osteen book appearing on the Top 5 books of Clinton Supporters). The movies for Donald Trump's side though are... wow. I mean God's Not Dead? Seriously? Even most Christians I know think that movie was a steaming pile of fecal matter. Also does Tim Tebow even count as an athlete any more?

Tim Tebow just got signed to the New York Mets farm team. So I think he still counts.

I've found Hilary supporters have a sort of sweet and sour taste; Trump supports are pretty gristly and get stuck in the throat.

Geez, not that the Clinton supporters have great taste, but Ted Nugent, Adam Sandler, God's Not Dead, and Duck Dynasty? What are the worst aspects of American pop culture, Alex?
That actually explains a lot, though. Brain-dead entertainment for brain-dead voters.
