I won’t deny he’s one of the best 2nd-Gen rich guys ever, making it bigger.
But that is still a far cry from truly middle-class people, never mind low-class level. He has not experienced that. Not had that kind of life or that kind of work. Only “how do I make all this money into MORE money?”
In short, it’s disingenuous.
To my knowledge, he made his kids learn the business from the bottom up, even learning to operate heavy equipment.
Nor am I aware Trump claimed to be lower class or middle class - but he relates to lower and middle class people in his speech patterns, etc. They like him.
In running a business, you are supposed to make a profit. You create value that people will pay for. He has done that.
Frankly, had I been born into his economic position, I do not think I would have handled it as well.
