That being said, Streep demonstrated quite clearly why he won. When you spend decades making fun of and looking down on about half your fellow citizens, don't be surprised if they give you the bird. That's what Trump's election was really all about, giving the so called elites a big F. U.<br /><br />I am amazed on a daily basis of how out of touch these clowns are. They think their status as "elites" is enough to carry the argument. The fact that Streep didn't convince anyone who didn't vote for Hillary (or even some of us did, don't judge me) was missed by her and everyone else in that room. Someone should tell these folks that unless they are playing pretend in that movie everyone just has to see, the rest of us do not care what they say.

She and her ilk seem awfully free with their opinions of us without a whole lot of personal experience in our environment. They seem especially enamored of their sociological theories while citing damned little evidence to support them. <br /><br />Come to that, I wonder what real prejudices I may unconsciously hold toward them - as opposed to the prejudices they attribute to me and mine?W.
