Poll Finds Less Than Half of College Students Believe U.S. is Most Powerful Country
“three in ten American college students say that China is more powerful than the U.S.”
Does anyone else have a sneaking suspicion that this has something to do with liberal contempt for Trump?

POLL: Less than half of students say US is most powerful country
A new poll shows that about three in ten American college students say that China is more powerful than the U.S.
The survey, conducted by College Pulse, collected responses from over 27,000 college students. Altogether, 8,394 respondents (30 percent) claimed that China, not the U.S., is the most powerful country in the world. China was the second-most selected nation in the poll, trailing only the U.S.
Although the U.S. won the plurality of votes, it received just under half of the total responses (48 percent) from survey participants.
Other notable nations include Russia (six percent), the United Kingdom (four percent), and Germany (three percent).
Campus Reform has previously conducted interviews with college students, some of whom have said that America is not the greatest country in the world.
In another video, students told Campus Reform that they trust the communist Chinese government over the Trump administration and U.S. intelligence.
The latest results come amid tensions between the U.S. and China. As the Trump administration negotiates with China on trade, U.S. intelligence agencies have also warned against potential threats to national security.

Comments
It’s not just due to liberal contempt of Trump, but to liberal contempt of the United States. For many years, colleges have subscribed to the “blame America first” theory of history and politics. Unfortunately, Trump’s nemesis “Squad of 4” are representative of the political leanings of college faculty, and especially college administrators (who proliferate like rabbits).
Students are being taught that the United States (particularly its whites, males, Christians, Jews, and conservatives) is the source of the world’s evils. Socialism, communism, and dictatorships like Venezuela, Cuba, and the Sandinistas in Nicaragua are held up as examples of good political systems that enforce social justice.
