Part of Republican TDS is that Donald Trump is associated by them with stupid people. They do think they're better, and they don't want to be in a crowd with MAGA. Women ask: "How can you support such a dumb guy?" Literally. And I say that guy is a billionaire, and he didn't used to be. He's smart at something. Dealing with people, I think. Famously. High social intelligence. And I say "No, you are dumb. You think you are smart because you have a degree. 'Smart' is not a fashion or a brand of product you consoom."

This entirely explains both Trump's appeal to ordinary people and the absolute hysterical hatred the managerial class have for him: he is a very successful person who doesn't speak their language. The language he chooses to use is deliberately anti-intellectual, and it helps working class people all over the English-speaking world recognize instantly that this is not your typical politician. He sounds like he could be your neighbor, or the buddy who helps you fix your roof in exchange for a case of beer. Regardless of how genuine it is, that's a breath of fresh air for those of us outside the Cathedral.

But for those in the Cathedral, especially the manger class who are not really elites but whose entire livelihood and sense of self-worth is derived from the approval of the elites: for those people, who went to school for decades and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to learn how to speak the language of the political class, to learn how to communicate like a smart person with other smart people, and how to conceal their sociopathy and narcissism when talking down to the plebs, the very idea of Trump is completely intolerable. His mere existence threatens the entire power structure that they've invested their lives and identities in trying to maintain. They will always lose their shit at the guy who gains political power without speaking their language, using their script or sharing their prejudices, because in doing so he reveals just how useless and unnecessary they are and just how wasted those hundreds of thousands of dollars were.
