No, usually rather more. (Obviously depends on who is talking, the same word is used with different meanings by different people, sometimes deliberately to confuse the issue). Both Donand Trump and Hilary Clinton are deeply entrenched in "The Elite" If you think of that class of people who have a massively outsized say in how power is exercised by virtue of their connections or wealth or lobbying might or anything that isn't a large number of citizens electing them in a fair contest. That class of people is "the elite." Absolutely this includes idiotic hollywood celebrities and politicians in gerrymandered electorates - unless of course they really are puppets on strings.
