Still, there remains the vexing question of how a billionaire demagogue can win the loyalty of the very people whose class interests he opposes. What possible sense can we make of blue-collar workers of any age, gender or race supporting a man whose very existence rests on their exploitation and, increasingly, on their obsolescence? It boggles the mind, or so we like to pretend.

The problem with the above statement is that Trump does not "oppose" the class interests of the blue collar workers, in fact he has stated that their welfare will be his first priority. This could flummox normal one-per centers, but I actually was raised myself to believe in hard work and the natural goodness of anyone who earned a living. So I believe this suggestion is dead wrong.

You can’t have a middle class if you keep kicking them in the gut. No middle class, no American dream.
