Editor,
Seemingly, on a daily basis, the debate over which major political party best defines elitism continues in the pages of the San Mateo Daily Journal.
Here, I never considered myself elite as I was raised to equally value every person regardless of their ethnicity, religion, orientation or station in life, as I would hope they valued me. Granted, this is not without condition, as I reserve the right to judge them based on their character and, simply put, this can be distilled down to their humanity and concern for their fellow man.
That being the case, let me evaluate my proximity to elitism based on my personal observations. Can I recognize: lies, fascism, authoritarianism, narcissism, racism, sexism, criminality, grift, sexual assault, immorality, hypocrisy, disregard for the rule of law and due process, disrespect for the Constitution, threats to national security, treason, blind greed, violations of human rights, and actions contrary to the best interests of the American people? If the answer is “yes” and that makes me elite, I proudly plead guilty as charged.

Well put, Cory. The loyalists to the Felon in the White House continue to use "elites" as a dirty word, while supporting the criminals and billionaires stripping our government for parts. How ironic.
Really nice one Cory, the best part is that you leave out any names allowing our distaff squadron to amuse themselves by putting in the ones they prefer. So, you please everyone, Ha ha
Cheers all
Hey Cory - thank you for supporting Trump and listing the vagaries inflicted on us for the past 4 years. How baffling that you attempt to accuse the current administration of the sins that were swept under the rug by the news media and actually perpetrated by the Biden crime syndicate.
Congratulations, Cory, on being an “elite” since you were able to identify and list flaws of the current Democrat party. Now perhaps you can provide an explanation as to why Democrats are siding with criminals more than the American people. Or why Democrats choose to continue America Last policies. BTW, many have “Elite” branded credit cards or “Elite” status classification as preferred customers so there are many ways to identify as elite.
