"Zakaria said Trump supporters are "tribal" and saw the 2016 presidential election as an act of cultural and class rebellion against the "educated" urban professionals."

Educated??? Zakaria has a bachelor of arts degree, and a PhD in government. I consider a qualified welder, or a truck driver with a CDL to be far better educated than that.

It’s a middle class rebellion against the elitist media and establishment politicians that have whored themselves out to their owners (who they’ve never met and wouldn’t like).

"Replace “educated” with “indoctrinated,” and he’s correct."

"An Act Of Class Rebellion" Against "The Educated Institutionally Indoctrinated""

There! Fixed it.

Trump won because college-educated Americans are out of touch

“The current mob of narcissists are indoctrinated, not educated.”

******

Agreed re: most schools. Fortunately, my kid goes to a conservative university and is a STEM major.

“secular and non-practicing Muslim”

If that’s a self-description, he’s either lying (taqiyya) or a heretic.

These folk are educated beyond their own capacity to understand... Love that memorable pic at #40... When Kerry was running for Prez he was confronted about having 6 SUVs while campaigning against ownership of SUVs - and Kerry replied that those 6 SUVs didn't belong to him, they belonged to his family. Let's face it: we are ruled by low-intelligence idiots - who think the shoe is on the other foot.

In 2017, having a diploma doesn’t necessarily mean someone is educated.

Fareed, I’m not impressed with your education, experience or your current work product.

Have a nice day.

By the educated he really means the ACADEMICS. An academic is someone who can not DO anything of value, so he pontificates and expects us underlings to pay him for doing so.

A great wisdom book advises human beings to "get knowledge," to "get wisdom," but then cautions that, above all, we should "get understanding"--a human attribute which often seems to be overlooked in this 21st Century.

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction." - Proverbs 1:7
