Will Bunch attacks elite pundits over anti-Trump criticism
Original: Will Bunch: "This nonsense rekindled a fire that’s been smoldering since the summer among a certain crowd — six-figure-s
Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Will Bunch is drawing attention for a sharply worded critique of affluent liberal commentators, accusing them of dismissiveness toward grassroots discontent that has been building since the summer.
