It's almost like the people pushing Platner don't actually like the working class. Maybe even hold them in contempt. Imagine that.

You think people pushing Plattner are contemptuous of working stiffs? Sounds like the Mar-a-lardo mafia.

Ah yes, Platner. Rich boy Nazi pretending to be a progressive. Oh wait. That is what progressives are now.

Hard to imagine an article about condescension towards the working class without mentioning the enablers and deniers about our president, who has been convicted of sexual assault of which many women in open court affirmed the suffered similar attack (as opposed to one individual--a Republican operative--accusing Platner of twisting her arm). And of course findings of discrimination against Blacks by Trump and his father's rental company (settled via a consent degree) is much more onerous than musings about a stereotypical image of Blacks. Moraff mistake, by the WSJ logic, was in simply not denying everything as our president has done--instead of saying let the voters decide, which WSJ thinks is condescending, he should have just said "it never happened". Just like the Iranian campaign was over two months before it actually (sort of) ended, or Iran has agreed to nuclear inspections, etc.

With MAGAts every accusation is a confession.
