Idiocracy incoming:
"You might have imagined that the world’s richest man could have a couple of fact-checkers on retainer to help ensure that he isn’t making clearly stupid assertions. But nooo.”

@Sabokeme You're welcome. I'm wondering if I should share this information with the younger members of my family for whom Uber is almost a religion.

@Laloofah I think elite can mean somethingn other than "most skilled." I think it can mean people who imagine that they should be accorded special treatment and privilege for incidental reasons, like having lots of money.

"A dictionary definition of oligarchy is “a government in which a small group exercises control especially for corrupt and selfish purposes.” The super-rich know Trump can punish or reward them, and he’s trying to pressure them into anti-democratic alliances with him. Sadly, some billionaires are happy to do so."
