Why did the blue-collar working class think Trump, a billionaire real-estate mogul, spoke for them? How on earth would he have even a remote chance of understanding their struggles?
I could understand if both candidates didn't resonate with them. But to be so dead-set on thinking Trump understands them better? There's zero logic there.
There is a marked difference between being rich and being "elite". For (the best) example, the raw, monetary net worth of the Rothschild family is nowhere near what their true worth is; when you own the federal banks and more importantly the prints themselves, you in reality have an infinite amount of money and can never run out...HOWEVER, the claims that they have $500 Trillion or even $5-10 Trillion are silly; they would never want that amount because it would devalue the money that they control. In reality having that much money would be a detriment to them, they could easily HAVE that much if they wanted but it would be worth less than the amount they have now in practical application, not to mention much harder to keep tabs on and control. They would put bullets in their own heads if they woke up tomorrow morning with as little power as Trump does.
Trump isn't really an elite family like "Clinton" or "Bush" are. His family hasn't been steeped in politics for decades, in fact he's been pretty politically incorrect for most of his life. Politics ruins absolutely. It will eventually ruin Trump too, now, there is no traditional defense against it when you have to either play by the book and become a corrupt piece of pomegranate or get eaten alive. Trump doesn't understand day-to-day struggles, no, but he does understand the general issues facing our country right now and is willing to fix them because he is not yet wearing the tinted glasses of a politician that makes negatives into positives. Hopefully he will have fixed everything he needs to before that becomes an issue.
