Former CBS ”Evening News” anchor Katie Couric said Sunday on comedian Bill Maher’s podcast “Club Random” that many of former President Donald Trump’s voters were driven by anti-intellectualism.
Couric said, “I’m talking about overall income inequality and even taking race out of it, the huge chasm between the uber, uber, uber wealthy and people who don’t have 400 dollars in and emergency, it has never been such a stark divide.”
She continued, “The socio-economic disparities are a lot and class resentment is a lot and anti-intellectualism and elitism is what is driving many of these anti-establishment, which are Trump voters, or anti establishment voters so, I think that is a huge problem that we have to address. I mean globalization and the transition from an industrial to a technological society. I mean I don’t know if you’ve ever been jealous of someone else or resentful, it is such a corroding and bitter, almost bile feeling. And I think that when people who are really struggling see people who have everything and on top of that are looking down on them it is just a recipe for such anger and grievance.”

This is the chick who covered up the crimes and rapes of her former colleague Matt Lauer
Dummy
“This is Trump supporters..buhbuhbuh. Everybody hates them and no one will attend their birthday parties. They are so stupid.” “
In my discourse in life, I find Democrats are MOSTLY the low hanging fruit. People who tend to support Trump are more informed, and aware of consequences, past actions and causes of how and why thinks work. Too bad, reporters get away with silly comments as this. If there is anyone REALLY to blame for the great MESS, it is that NEWS sources have been reporting news to create a narrative and promote an agenda.
I think she has been afflicted with severe case of Dunning-Kruger.
Coming from one that read a teleprompter
This from someone 6 IQ points above our current VP.
More propaganda from an elitist libtard. She did her best reporting when she had the camera up her rectum. It’s been all down hill ever since with her.
She’s got a point. Whenever I wake up in the morning and feel a severe case of anti-intellectualism come over me, I think even more about supporting Trump.
I dunno. Her work on the DC sniper case was comedy gold.
I’ve never considered her much of an ‘intellectual’, so I don’t know why I should value her analysis...
What? Katie’s not relevant anymore and can’t find any Generals to screw?
Katie has a BA in “ American Studies” from the UVA.
‘Nuff said.
From my perspective, Big Media reporters are some of the least intelligent, least informed, and least honest people in America. The really famous ones, who become "anchor men", are the worst of the lot.
“Anti-Intellectualism”???
Has that bimbo ever turned on her old show - Today - and watched the complete brain-dead bimbo shit that passes for info these days?
Holy Krispy-Kreme.....it’s really bad.
Savannah Guthrie & Hoda Kotb are complete ditzes.
"Intellectualism" is akin to asshole, you dopes.
Typical left wing elitist snob!!!
Another candidate for an overpass dangle.
