RUSH: The Los Angeles Times just ran an op-ed about Elizabeth Warren\u2019s \u201celitism problem.\u201d The author is a guy named Joel Stein, he is a Warren fanboy. He says that she is a member of the intellectual elite, and that he is too. And he says the fact that she\u2019s a Harvard Law professor fills him with \u201cso much joy\u201d that it makes him swoon, which is no surprise coming from a guy who wrote a book called \u201cIn Defense of Elitism.\u201d<\/p>\n

But here\u2019s the problem, says Mr. Stein, people don\u2019t like intellectual elites. People don\u2019t appreciate Ivy League pedigrees. And he says that\u2019s why Donald Trump is president. Trump won because he is an anti-elitist, who beats up on the elites. Trump voters cheer when anyone in the media, academia, or government are taken down a notch.<\/p>\n
Now this guy Stein says that he wishes that he lived in a time when progressive, intellectual leaders like Elizabeth Warren were appreciated. Because, he claims, far-right nationalism is imperiling democracy all over the world.<\/p>\n
Now, this guy may be smart, but how do we define smart, because this guy doesn\u2019t get it. He and his fellow liberals embraced a Harvard Law grad for eight years. She lied to get the gig, said she was an Indian. Obama was a member in good standing of the intellectual elite, and he imperiled the American way of life. The reason most voters will avoid Elizabeth Warren at all costs is because we\u2019ve seen her and the elite in action, and we\u2019ve learned they aren\u2019t smarter than we are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
