Uh, how are the elites going to have anything coming but more tax breaks and more special privileges? If things get bad enough for liberal elites, they can just move, and keep their money. Elites are not going to suffer; it is the poor and middle class, no matter how they voted.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

So fucking rich that it's the NYT suggesting they effectively reported the facts and own no culpability.
The elites won't pay for this...not as much as the guys who voted for him.
They still have it coming. Unless they're personally on Trump's hit list they're going to be too wealthy and insulated to feel any real consequences from a Trump administration. The people who are going to suffer the most are minorities and poor people.
Dumb take
We're just gonna talk about Vance's hometown like any of that is true?
"the elites had it coming", but they won't be the one's catching the worst of this next administration. I suspect there are college graduates on both sides of the aisle. FU NYT, you helped to create this coming debacle.
"settler colonialism"... My problem with this bit of academic jargon was not that it was wrong... but rather that it offered a glimpse of our poisoned class relations
This pale, racist bro has no clue who the actual victims of settler colonialism are. Zero mention of any genocide at any time or place. He just wants to protect the feelings of his fellow pale people with delusional myths.
The dems/"elites" lost because they unilaterally imposed a completely uninspiring, genocidal cop on us.
