At risk of feeding the troll, but the vast majority of the US population are incompetent at science. There is a reason that science is the domain of people who are not only fairly smart but also carefully trained in how to make decisions based on evidence rather than social dynamics. While Trump's appeal is targeting people who are clearly scientifically-illiterate ... all politicians have messages crafted to appeal to scientific illiterates. There aren't enough scientifically competent people to even be a meaningful swing vote.
Every partisan is perfectly happy to claim that they are following science and usually fail to modify their behavior when confronted with actual science. That holds across the political spectrum. The Trump crowd aren't anti-science, they simply tend to anti-authority. I guarantee you that they're highly pro-science on the issues where the science agrees with them.
