Trump blasts liberal elites: 'I'm smarter than they are'

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/436404-trump-blasts-liberal-elites-im-smarter-than-they-are


President Trump blasted liberal "elites" at his campaign rally in Michigan on Thursday, praising his supporters and himself as the real elite.

“I’m smarter than they are, I went to better schools than they did, I have better apartments than they have, I’m better educated all around," Trump said talking of liberal elites. "I have a much more beautiful house, much more beautiful anything. And I'm president and they're not."

"I get a kick, I hear: 'So and so, the elite.' Then you see this guy, like, this little schlepper. 'This is elite? I'm not elite?'" Trump continued. "We're the elite. You're smarter. You're sharper. You're more loyal."

-snip-



Little Donny Hide-My-Grades is more delusional than ever.

But notice how he compliments his "elite" followers.

He compliments them on being loyal.

He's not smarter
He didn't do well at those better schools
He has really trashy, "noveau riche" decorated apartments (My husband described 45's style as "the dream of a whore with money&quot .
And remember, "Everything Trump Touches, Dies"

Back in his youth he desperately wanted to be part of the "hip young Manhattanite old-money upper-crust" crowd, and was rejected at every turn because he can't even fake having an ounce of class or style. Nobody liked him, nor was willing to put up with him. He was as much a living caricature of crassness as he is now.

He never forgets a slight (no matter how well deserved), and that one has stuck in his craw for his entire life.

Or, in his case, may be a Little Peter Principle.

You golf at your own private country club with your name on it, you fly in a private jet with your name on it, and you live in a fucking gold tower with your name on it! You eat your cake with two scoops of ice cream while everyone else gets one, and you drink diet Coke while everyone else gets water. If that's not the definition of elitist, I don't know what is!

the Mueller so called report leaking. Barr and Whitaker may have given him a brief heads up weeks ago.

Notice the people Trump has attacked,many of those people have received the top information from all of the Intell Agencies and they know the times dates and places as to the what where and how Trump worked with the Russians and others to steal the Elections.

Madam Speaker did share her Political Thoughts this afternoon,Impeachment is on the edge of the table,and if the Mueller brief shows what her knows to be fact,ka-boom,here we go.

He is so terrified that everyone is going to find out just how stupid he is, how incompetent he is, how broke he is, how impotent he is, what a joke he is, what a complete fraud he is. He is just so afraid of TRUTH! .

I find comfort in knowing that this man is a tortured soul who will never know peace as long as he lives.
