The Daily Show's Jordan Klepper had a sad clip of a Trump supporter demanding to know where President Obama was during Katrina, and that he should be investigated for his failures.

(The answer, of course, is "he was a state Senator in Illinois at the time".)

I'm on the fence about this kind of talk, to be honest. I ask myself sometimes, is it fair to demean those who have been let down by the state they were educated in? I know that generally Americans are uninspired and under educated, but a lot of that comes from systematic and cultural issues rather than it being a fault of the person itself.
This isn’t an issue of education.
