They don't think the Trump family or the Kushner family or the Koch family or the Mercer family are among the "elite." They don't think Putin or McConnell are among the "elite." Oh, no! It's just those pesky book-reading and science-experiment people who are the "elite" (no matter how humble their actual circumstances may be). They believe that those are the people who control the world's resources and money and governments!
