The Tastes of Clinton and Trump Supporters

The Tastes of Clinton and Trump Supporters
http://graphics.wsj.com/elections/2016/facebook-likes/

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.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Leaving aside the two camps' tastes in pop culture, I am amazed (though I probably shouldn't be at this point) at the desperation among Evangelicals to remain politically relevant that they would even consider backing Trump, who is clearly not of their ilk. I'm not saying that Clinton should be the default choice for them, either.

I guess I'm saying that I pine for the good old days when Evangelicals tended to be apolitical . . . disdaining things of "this world" and all that jazz.

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.

It's hard to be an effective NFL quarterback when your best play is a Hail Mary.

And people who disdain practical political decisions in favor of perfection always remind me of infants crying for their momma's tit.
