I'd ask what kind of morons believe this sort of claptrap, but DU-folk and like-minded Libs & Progs answer the question by being the answer. Real IQ tests - to the degree they have any reflection of reality - focus on practical knowledge and problem-solving, not partisan opinions.
A conservative could play the same game and concoct an "IQ test" of similar value and validity using questions like:
* "Was Ronald Reagan functionally illiterate?"
* "Did George W. Bush get into the Texas Air National Guard to avoid serving in Vietnam?"
* "Was George W. Bush Dick Cheney's sock puppet?"
* "Is Donald Trump a racist, sexist, advocating violence, and evil incarnate?"
But we'd know it wasn't a"real" IQ test.

Exactly and yes.

Quite appropriate, since you'd be giving this test to people we know don't have a real IQ.

It's clickbait.
It doesn't present any new info, it doesn't argue anything substantive (just that republicans are stupid, so nyah), and contains a chart that has little to do with the thesis.

Funny how those who claim they have "high IQ's" are consistently having employment/financial/relationship/etc... problems.
Look primitives, any one of us over here is more intelligent that all of you combined. Give it a rest. You're in over your heads.
