He loved the uneducated because they can’t see behind his ridiculously thin veil: HE IS THE ELITE.

And considering he captured my grandparents’ vote —my grandparents, who have cared for their now 63-year-old quadriplegic son with cerebral palsy for his entire life—even after he publicly mocked a disabled reporter while everyone laughed. Well, that’s just sick. If there’s an infection we need to discuss it’s whatever resides within half this country that makes the desire to openly deride others to a chorus of laughter the reason to vote for a candidate.

I share a lot of Freddie’s views on liberals and SJWs. But I also don’t get the idea of farther left people holding their nose to vote for Hillary or to vote for Biden. You have to acknowledge that there IS another half to the country, or you’re not going to get the margin from the middle to win governance.

> HE IS THE ELITE

Meh – he's rich but also the butt of _decades_ of jokes (by other 'elites').

'Eliteness' isn't a measure of standing in a single (or simple) hierarchy – at least not in the U.S.. Trump's 'eliteness' is pretty complicated – and interesting to think about!
