Imagine if DNA started out looking like a ladder. If you held onto the bottom and twisted the top counter-clockwise you'd get the helix. The image above would be the result of turning the top clockwise which isn't what DNA looks like. A trivial point but still important, like the Earth rotating backwards in The Daily Show intro.
Yeah, I feel like there's a solid case to be made that he's an unrepentant narcissist, and just uses words like that because he can conceptualize their meaning, but not because he truly understands what it means to love something/someone, as that requires a willingness to sacrifice on their behalf, something he's clearly incapable of
I took it as "without the poorly educated, I wouldn't have a platform!" The thing about conservatism is that it requires a poor illiterate base to manipulate and point towards its enemies du jour
Of course Trump says awful shit. I just think this sound bite wasn’t the best one to become an ongoing liberal quote. Just cause it seems like people misunderstand what the sentence actually means. I know it’s splitting hairs, but I’m a pedantic motherfucker I guess.
That is basically the context of his speech, I'd largely agree. He loves the poorly educated because they vote for him, not in any sort of charitable or sympathetic way.
They are probably reporting something along the lines of "Even scientists will tell you that they don't know much for certain, so why do we even listen to them!"
I'm guessing the context is more a discussion on how advanced science is and how we're just touching the tip of the iceberg of universal knowledge... I hope.

I mean, we know a fuckton about science. We know everything about science. Science may not know how the world works yet, but we know that we don't know that too!
[People say] "But evolution is only a theory!", which is true, I mean it is a theory and it's good they say that, I think, because it gives you hope, doesn't it? That they feel the same way about the theory of gravity and they might just float the fuck away... — Tim Minchin

Of all the things I can't believe he got away with saying, this was neither the worst nor the most surprising, but it was weird.
Blackbodylogic
People act like he said he loves to keep people poorly educated, tho. But are we not supposed to love the uneducated? 🤣 They need love too!

Hey people, maybe stop being shocked, surprised or outraged by Fox News ? That’s what they thrive to generate on a daily basis..

Science did end up making Aristotle and others look like a bitch. Because science is a liar, sometimes.

Aristotle wasn't doing science. He was doing "making shit up and plastering a plausible explanation over top"
