Yes ... .and no. The reason for no is this:    Nov 8, 2016 he became president elect, or the chosen one by the Electoral College, to be Potus.    Donald Trump was chosen to fulfill that role by the Patriots.    With this in mind he IS elite (elected), not the self styled other people I could mention. So, it is fascinating to see the response of the Fake News Media, who lost all humor thanks to their Trumpphobia, and not one of them was ready to express the obvious. It is amazing how many chances they get to wake up from their induced slumber. And more amazingly, are the exploding heads when the fact he is legally the chosen Potus, are pointed out to those who take issue with his statement.
