The "Elites"

Republicans, over the past few years, have gotten a lot of mileage out of branding liberals as the "elite", especially those who have major cultural influence -- as in, Hollywood. Digby has a post on Trump talking about the "elites" at a recent rally, and one thing really struck me:

I don't know about you but many of you went to better schools than they did. We did better in the schools than they did. We have better houses, homes, boats. We do better than they do. We work harder than they do. We make more money than they do.

That's his measure: who has the most toys.

Sad.
