America got a look at how the liberal media elitists look at ordinary citizens during a comment by Anderson Cooper, the homosexual son of Gloria Vanderbilt, following the Trump rally at the Capitol on January 6.

Cooper, who is very wealthy, couldn’t hold back his disdain for Americans who eat at Olive Garden or who stay in a Holiday Inn. They apparently disgust him.

“Look at them, they’re high-fiving each other for this deplorable display of completely unpatriotic, completely against law-and-order, completely unconstitutional behavior. It’s stunning,” Cooper said on his show AC360.  “And they’re going to go back, you know, to the Olive Garden and to the Holiday Inn they’re staying at, and the Garden Marriott and they’re going to have some drinks and they’re going to talk about the great day they had in Washington.”

Like Hillary Clinton, Cooper believes that anyone who supports Trump is deplorable and unfit for high society. Cooper backpedaled when someone pointed out how uppity and patronizing his comments were.

“I was trying to remark about the seeming casualness of the behavior that we were all witnessing at that moment after the attack,” Cooper said at the end of his show. “The high-fiving, the laughing, the celebratory atmosphere, as if they had actually accomplished something.”

Sometimes in the heat of the moment, the truth slips out on CNN.

Cooper claimed afterward that he likes the Olive Garden (which is an excellent chain restaurant) but his comment indicates that anyone who stoops to eat at such a backward restaurant is open for criticism.

This is how most of the media feels about Middle America. Anyone who shops at Walmart or eats at Olive Garden is lower class and underserving of respect.

No wonder the ratings on CNN are through the floor.
