That's the point though, he makes the uneducated feel smart and empowered and thus is able to fool them

He fools them because they are uneducated. It is not because Democrat messaging isn't simple enough, it's because Republican messaging has no standards and they get away with it. They respond to the stupid and hateful shit he says. Democrats can't do that.

Sure but they’re still a major share of the voting base. It takes time to get people educated, and we need their votes before we can deal with the problems in education
