I'd say he comes from intelligensia more than wealth, which is somewhat adjacent I'll concede for the sake of it.

However I wouldn't saddle a politician with their origin so much as things within their capacity to control, like their (proposed) policies and actions.

As an adult he did social work and made silly music, neither of which are politically problematic.
