"[L]et's face it, the easiest way to get on television right now is to be really rude." [Obama, on every Sunday political talk show not on FOX.]
This approach hasn't been working for me at all! In reality, the easiest way to get on television, at least in this context, is to be a powerful member of the political elite. As for those having attained the requisite status: being rude is is the least of their shortcomings.

same thing.
once you can afford to hire a lobbyist, you're 'of the political elite.'

which isn't to say "a millionaire" or "wealthy" wouldn't have been better in place of "a powerful member of the political elite" in the op.
