When you hear people talk about the NY/LA "coastal elites" you can (as people have this week) try to make that code for "Jews" but I have never thought that way. Rather, I've thought of $4 million 2500-square foot apartments in NYC owned by people who also own $5 million Manhattan Beach estates as well as properties in foreign countries. These people drive luxury automobiles, fly in private jets, and wear clothing that costs a month's pay for the frustrated middle class. To make the money they spend so callously, they do not make any product or provide any service that people see on a day-to-day basis; they dabble in "finance" or the entertainment industry or do something in the tech world that seems overvalued even to people on CNBC. They also spend profligately on both social causes and political candidates and tell the frustrated middle that those people in the middle have lost the "culture wars" and should be quiet.

Sounds an awful like a description of our President, who seems to be an odd choice to lead a fascist-like revolt for the frustrated middle class.
