text: Who are the elite? Republicans hate scientists and any academics. Republicans love the rich, maybe they are the elite? How does that serve the average working person? Blue collar workers have lost their well-paid manufacturing jobs throughout the US, and they have lost union representation along with their jobs, unless they work in the public sector or in trades protected by unions with government clout. But now, those former workers hate unions. Who will represent them? Trump promised them he would bring their jobs back. Do you believe that?
