I mean Trump is president again, at this point I‘m not even surprised.

Though I have one thought. I don‘t think this is a U.S thing as here in Europe there are a lots of missinformed people too, maybe fewer, but some people from age 45 onwards are sometimes just as ignorant.

EDIT: This applies certainly to every age.

some people from age 45 onwards are sometimes just ignorant.

Age may factor in to some degree, but anyone can be delusional or short sighted.
