The American Conservative

Conservatives...whining about R elites being better than the D's elite in the age of Trump where both ruling tribes lost.

Removing Trump Won’t Solve America’s Crisis | The American Conservative:
...These people are right about one thing: Trump is supremely unfit for his White House job. But that isn’t the central crisis; it is merely a symptom of it, though it seems increasingly to be reaching crisis proportions of its own.
When a man as uncouth and reckless as Trump becomes president by running against the nation’s elites, it’s a strong signal that the elites are the problem. 
and....
"At least Republican elites resisted the emergence of Trump for as long as they could. Some even attacked him vociferously. But, unlike in the Democratic Party, the Republican candidate who most effectively captured the underlying sentiment of GOP voters ended up with the nomination. The Republican elites had to give way. Why? Because Republican voters fundamentally favor vulgar, ill-mannered, tawdry politicians? No, because the elite-generated society of America had become so bad in their view that they turned to the man who most clamorously rebelled against it."

Republican elites accepted Trump ... "because the elite-generated society of America had become so bad in their view that they turned to the man who most clamorously rebelled against it."

Like the R elite realized the masses wanted Trump so they just gave in to the rabble.

That's some bullshit.

The R's accepted Trump because they had no choice, the R voters chose him. Exactly the same reason the D's accepted Trump, the American voters chose him.

Of course the elite of both parties don't like him and are working to neuter him but they both accepted the outcome of the elections because, you know, the person with the most votes wins.  (well sort of but that's another story.)
