Also, a lot of jobs have been lots by middle class whites. Heck lots of educated technical folks are being outsourced to China and India. Really the rich under Obama have appeared to get richer, and the average person is lost regardless of race. This is the sentiment I get.

The fact that Trump was able to paint some bleak picture of the American economy and actually get away with it was a massive failure on behalf of the American media. Now the unskilled workforce thinks that some how Trump is going to get them a job tightening screws on an assembly line for $20 an hour like it's 1955.
