Back in 2016, I didn't understand how an extremely wealthy heir to a billion-dollar fortune (and regardless of all his business failures) could present himself as the candidate of the little people. Today, after Trump was president and - of course - only made policy changes for the rich, I understand it even less. What is this photo-op all about? Are there seriously still people who don't understand that Trump has never represented the middle class - or even the working class? You can't be serious, dear US citizens.
It's super frustrating but as an example - my parents are deeply conservative and supportive of Trump, and also on the lower end of "wealth" and semi-retired. It is 100% misinformation. My Dad quotes the Fox news rhetoric like it's facts, and regardless of me disproving most of the BS, he is completely brain washed. At this point Trump could run a live execution of his political opponents and the Trumpets would more or less shrug.
They wouldn't just shrug. They would actively cheer it on.
