I didn't mean to suggest that every person 'running things' was accurately described by each label. I meant "idiots, scumbags and criminals" as a domain.
I wouldn't even rule out that an exception or two might not fit into any of those labels. I just don't think they're statistically significant.

I just mean that I don't see that he was right by definition. That would mean that the world is run by idiots by definition, which is obviously false (that fact, if it is a fact, doesn't follow from the definitions of any of those words).
