This threads official mascot.
I did not see the show but I bet it was not just calling himself white trailer trash I bet it was combined with using it as an excuse in the board room. using the term white trailer trash is as loaded as the word nigger. and if someone uses it to describe themselves it had better not be as an excuse for failure. as far as I am concerned it is best to just not use the term in anything but the informal between friends. Trump was using the forum of the tv show to recruit top notch talent and I think the last thing he wanted was for when things went wrong for his executive to call himself white trailer trash what he wanted was critical examinations for the cause of the failure and a plan not to repeat the same failure.
When the Progressives have destroyed the “white working class” where is the welfare money going to come from?
I do a lot of bartering with my buddies too.
Best deal I have gotten was a nice 30-30 for a few loads of firewood logs. (should have traded off the boat first though... dammit)
BTW, Floyd Radford, far right, was a classmate in junior high. Great guitar player. He also did time with Johnny Winter. Still plays occasionally with old band mates from Tin House (earlier band) at Tin House Ranch in Central Florida (Oviedo).
Not all that bad while sitting in the cab of a $200-300,000 machine with climate control and a decent stereo.
who was it that said, no profit in keeping them alive and no loss if they are gone...
In the white culture, we tend to call the different groups “Rich dad / poor dad”.
I have $80,000. Rick has $80,000.
I buy a parcel of land somewhere and slowly build a little vacation spot or SHTF plot or something.
Rick buys a 2016 Ford F350 Lariat.
All around town I bump into people who make more than I do (Tons more) and I also bump into hard working guys who do as their dad’s did and said: “Work hard and you’ll succeed”. These are great guys.
They have a nice truck.. but it’s a damned truck and I have a 16 year old used car.
Yeah, “they need it to...... haul / tow / work / blah blah”
But White Trash in my book is just “poor dad” stuff. I have the oldest car in my area, I wear used clothes from the salvation army and I rent a house. But I also own a software company and invest feverishly. Ya look at me, and I fit the description for white trash.
if I were smarter I woulda bought a pile of gold.
What the white underclass is missing is culture and, in some cases, a reasonable share of raw intelligence.
The two are not totally unrelated.
What's this here thread all about. Lets you just drop 'em.
There have been a few liberals like Sargon of Akkad criticizing social justice warriors for saying all whites have privilege, demanding whites accept discrimination and guilt tripping for being white - and that the ones making these demands tend to be upper class elites who aren’t white men telling often poor lower class whites to shut up and be good little dhimmi/untouchables.
But unlike Islam, the lower class can’t change religions to get full rights, only self-flagellate a lot to gain tolerance of the new elites.
All based on an assignment of collective guilt for something few whites did (less than 2% had slaves), while denying the collective achievement of white men ending slavery for both blacks here and everyone else around the world.
“Scratch a conservative and you find someone who prefers the past over any future. Scratch a liberal and find a closet aristocrat. It’s true!
Liberal governments always develop into aristocracies. The bureaucracies betray the true intent of people who form such governments. Right from the first, the little people who formed the governments which promised to equalize the social burdens found themselves suddenly in the hands of bureaucratic aristocracies. Of course, all bureaucracies follow this pattern, but what a hypocrisy to find this even under a communized banner.”

Dinesh D’Souza does a great piece in “Hillary’s America” showing how Democrats north and south both supported slavery, and no Republicans north or south owned slaves. But the myth that the racists became Republicans in the 1970s-1980s let Democrats smear them as the racist party. Reality, less than 1% of Democrat officials EVER changed parties, while the Democrats continued to support Jim Crow and later welfare as enforced dependency.

I don’t think so, because after that he said he still had to fire the person responsible for the loss, he just didn’t want to hire anyone who would call himself “white trash”. Here’s the clip, judge for yourself.

I’m drinkin’ grain alcohol mixed with Coca Cola as I read this and, I’m a veteran.
Yeah, education not withstanding, I’m WT through and through.
Go Trump!
ProPublica and Wsj have a few connections.
ProPublica has attracted attention for the salaries it pays its employees.[17][18] In 2008, Paul Steiger, the editor of ProPublica, received a salary of $570,000.[19] Steiger was formerly the managing editor at the Wall Street Journal, where his total compensation (including options[19]) was double that at ProPublica.[20] Steiger’s stated strategy is to use a Wall Street Journal pay model to attract journalistic talent.[21] In 2010, eight ProPublica employees made more than $160,000, including managing editor Stephen Engelberg ($343,463) and the highest-paid reporter, Dafna Linzer, formerly of the Washington Post ($205,445).[22]
A guy I know received a White Trash Barbie for Christmas some years ago. Funny little sayings came with it, something about “I’m drinkin’ for two.”
