Maintream Elitists

We often hear President Trump rail against the "elitists." But that is an oxymoron because the two are mutually exclusive of one another.

Elitists by their very nature are not a part of the mainstream, they sit high above the fray in lives of luxury and power. Actual elitists are the very people Trump has stacked his cabinet and staff with; people that have money and influence and are using it -- in combination with their new found government positions -- to further enrich themselves. Many have had to resign for corruption, or at the least reckless use of taxpayer money.

For example, Scott Pruit, the former head of the EPA, ridiculous amounts of money that set off dozens of investigations, which forced him to resign. Then there was Treasury Secretary Mnuchin that wanted to use a military jet to take his wife on a honeymoon; Wilbur Ross, the Commerce Secretary, whose family is enriching themselves from his policy changes, and who was Vice Chairman of the Cypress Bank sanctioned to pay out hundreds of millions of dollars in fines -- along with Trump's business bankers Dueche Bank -- for laundering billions of Russia money.

From Kellyanne Conway promoting Ivanka's designer brand on national television to all the Trump appointees that were former lobbyists for the very industry sectors they now set policy for, the swamp belongs to Trump. He isn't draining it, he is allowing more alligators into it.

Elitists are human, and as history has taught us, greed has a big appetite. It mostly is in line with the famous line from the film Wall Street 2, when asked "What is enough?" rebuked the answer "More!"

Meanwhile, the administration keeps us distracted with "invasions" of immigrants that don't exist; they're refugees migrating to the border to "APPLY" for asylum. They talk up "fake news" to delegitimize the free press, an institution that the country is built on. They shout about the "deep state" in order to stoke conspiracy theories and frighten voters. They whip up their base with "wide-spread voter fraud" claims, even though many Republican-led investigations -- including the one commissioned by G.W. Bush --, found little to no fraud. Yet it remains a talking point that some Americans "want" to believe."

In addition to the businessmen elitists that go back to the days of the robber barons, who exploited workers, including child labor, there are also celebrities, who are vilified for being "elites." Yet historically, they've contributed to raising awareness to worldwide human suffering, and many -- like actress Audrey Hepburn, have been on the ground in places like Africa and Haiti, working for positive change in uplifting people's lives. So why are they vilified?

Chalk a lot of it up to Trump himself, who sells a Us vs. Them ideology, then blames others for the division in America 

So if you want to identify and hold elites that impact your life accountable, it begins with Trump himself, a man born with a silver spoon that likes to live like the Saudi Royal Family, and his wants, likes, desires, and narcissism trickles down through his entire administration.
