From $675/Hour Legal Work to a $400,000 Teaching Salary, It’s Clear That Elizabeth Warren is an Elitist

Apparently being paid more than $400,000 to teach two classes and charging $675 an hour for corporate legal work doesn’t exactly convince middle-class voters that you understand the challenges they face.

Perhaps that explains why Elizabeth Warren is desperately trying to change the overwhelming public perception that she’s an elitist pushing completely unrealistic policies that would suffocate middle-class families with new taxes.

Politico: “While the Warren campaign declined to discuss their strategy to rebut such attacks, Warren’s stump speech is crafted to preempt them by leaning more into her early biography growing up on “the ragged edge of the middle class” in Oklahoma rather than her years as Professor Warren living in Cambridge.”

Unsurprisingly, Warren neglects to mention a few key facts that undermine that strategy:

• Documents reviewed by The Washington Post show Warren made at least $462,322 from her work on 13 legal cases.
• Warren was among the highest-paid Harvard Professors during her first two years and received almost $430,000 while teaching only two classes.
• Warren resides in a 3,728 square foot home valued at $2.87 million in Cambridge, MA.

In addition to Warren attempting to mislead voters about her biography, she’s also spent weeks trying to convince them that she could fund her multi-trillion dollar Medicare for All plan without raising their taxes. As pointed out by countless studies, The National Review’s Kevin Williamson put it best:

“Even if the federal government were able to successfully double the revenue it gets from personal and corporate income taxes, the additional revenue would not pay for Warren’s health-care plan.”

“In fiscal year 2019, all federal tax revenue from all sources combined amounted to $3.4 trillion. If a Warren administration and a Democratic Congress were successful in raising Americans’ taxes by 50 percent, the extra revenue still wouldn’t be enough to fund Warren’s health-care program.”

Whether it’s phony messaging to hide her past or illogical proposals to fund her policies, it turns out Elizabeth Warren really does have a plan for everything.
