Studies show that 7,243 professors at America’s top 40 colleges, 3,623 professors are registered Democrats (50.02%), whereas just 314 are registered Republicans (8.67%). This means that Democrat professors at America’s top colleges outnumber Republican professors by a ratio of nearly 12:1. Proof of left-wing indoctrination in America’s schools can be further seen in data on young Americans. According to a 2018 Gallup poll, just 45% of millennials view capitalism positively. To the contrary, 51% of millennials view socialism positively. This means that young Americans largely support socialism over capitalism. These views conflict with the views of every single other generation of Americans. Just 28% of the Silent Generation, 30% of Baby Boomers, and 41% of Generation X view socialism positively.

I'll just deal with this bit for the moment. 

First, you've not actually answered my question. Why does being "unschooled in civics and economics" help whomever you are calling "the left"?  Why doesn't that help the Right, especially Trumpism?

I'll need to see whatever "study" you are referring to. I recall reading one such some 20 years ago, but it was sampled heavily towards the humanities and sciences, ignoring engineering, agriculture and business, where I'll wager Dems do not dominate, if they are even 50%. 

But I'm ready to concede there are far more Democrats in U.S. universities than Republicans. I just don't see how that proves left-wing "indoctrination," unless by "left-wing" you mean the kind of prioritizing of rational discussion and empirical evidence that birthed modern learning from the Renaissance forward--against feudal, conservative, and finally right wing resistance. Modern centers of learning, responsible for teaching and pursuing modern scholarship and science, are naturally going to seem progressive to the right--"pillars of deceit" as Limbaugh put it. These activities don't seem to attract many right wingers, and that's why we don't find many in universities. 

I checked out your link. Gosh, that is some bad reasoning. Do you think George W. Bush and supporters of NCLB were "leftists"? That's why they wanted to wrest control of hiring and firing from teachers unions? "The Left" wants a standardized curriculum? The "reporting" on the Oregon math initiative just seems intended to misinform.
