This is the result from Democrats' deep naval gazing, along the same line as "Chris Matthews: Trump Supporters Embrace Archie Bunker Stereotype" and various others' reporting of Trump supporters being non-college educated American males.

To Fareed, Wolfie, et al.,

Enough with the smug snobbishness, already. This tells the world that you 'Elites' only enrich yourselves at the expense of 'those you deem beneath your august selves and unworthy'.

It showed the world that Democrats' tradition and pride of taking care of these people have truly gone dead. Now your party prides itself as the Elite (more truthfully, Elitist) party.

Reminds me of George Will: “An act of rebellion against the adults in the Republican party.”

“Zakaria attended the Cathedral and John Connon School in Mumbai. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from Yale University in 1986.”

A BA? Alrighty then you super duper genius.

Educated?

Bleh

I think my Physics and Engineering degrees easily trump Fareed's "PhD" in "Government".

And "NO", I'm not particularly impressed by the words "Yale" and "Harvard". Quite the contrary, in fact ...

Lets be clear about one thing:

People who get a degree from a college or university are NOT smarter than those who didn’t, or say, only have a high school diploma.

IQ is a separate measurement that applies to the person’s overall intelligence; not where or how much schooling they received.

Also, there is huge difference, for example, between those who a degree in engineering or a hard science, and those who get a degree in mass communication, political “science”, cultural studies, Lesbian poetry, etc., etc.

There are also adults out there who might have learned things, over many years, on their own and not through a college. How do you rate such people?

To say they are “dumber” than the typical college graduate (LOL—”Do you want fries with that?”) is in itself a stupid assumption to make. Otherwise one of our smartest presidents, Abe Lincoln, was a dumbass for never attending a school!

Funny how when the “uneducated” voted Democrat they were the “forgotten man”.

"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).

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
