How can a country that has done so much for Science in general can have a population that is so anti-science?

they literally stole everything from others/or bought from jews

Well they do get energy from the sun, the manufacturing of solar panels is extremely carcinogenic, and they steal business away from fossil fuel electricity companies which end up requiring government subsidies to operate because you can't have 100% solar which causes taxes to increase which decrease house prices because nobody can afford to live there

Most of the time people in American politics make weird claims like that to cover up their actual reasons ( bribes by companies/lobbyism) and the average local burger will eat it up. You have to be really stupid everyone in the Trump adminstration actually thinks climate change isn't real and don't just deny it to get more money from big companies.

Or they can go out of business like any company should when it can't compete in a free market.

Then civilization would collapse because the power would go out when some clouds travel over, or it becomes night time. You could supplement with wind but then the power goes out when the wind stops. Or you could just use a nuclear power plant but nobody would build it because it's not profitable

The US will never lose its superpower status so long as it pays the best salaries in the world for scientists/engineers/professors. Would you prefer to be a college professor in Russia and make the same salary as a street sweeper?

No, see >>76380978 except not stolen. People left their countries of birth to realize their ideas in a place where they could be the most successful. Having greener grass isn't stealing from your neighbors.

Because the average person, not just American, is a fucking idiot. People live for pleasure, familiarity, and comfort, and the average person couldn't give a damn about anything else so they are quick to dismiss or attack anything they don't understand.

the USA has over 300 million people.
the crazy Obama-may-be-the-Antichrist are only about 35 million people, but over represented politically because of their electoral system.

Only? In both sheer numbers and percentage of overall population that is an alarmingly high number. Fringe extremists are supposed to be outliers of a society, not some 10 odd percent.

it is hard to get number, but the USA has dozens of millions of Baptists and Evangelicals. For many of them, ideas like the State of Israel exists because of the fulfillment of biblical prophecy, Israel belongs to the Jews because they are Gods chosen people and God gave them that land, God blesses those who support the Jews and punishes their enemies, and Israel will play an important role in the end of times (antichrist-second coming) are acceptable beliefs.
smaller groups, but still in the millions, may believe the earth was created only milleniums ago or other things or other strange things.

they are a minority, but big enough to affect politics, especially because they are very important in some states.

The Evangelical movement is dead (at least as a mainstream thing). This isn't the 80s.
