Living in smaller commutes, this way of thinking, "our class is better
than yours," goes on in various ways.
White folks should have the better jobs than others...country club
folks are better than their workers....etc..etc.
When Trump had those country club meetings, they were more about
members'/others' interests in this/that they wanted from Uncle Sam.
Trump's blue collar base just don't quite get it...lip service to you,
and economic benefits to them.
