No, they feel that way because there's a huge gulf between someone making $500K per year and someone making $50K per year.

I'm merely argueing that Trump is a fraud who isn't actually 'on their side.' He merely panders to their concerns because it's extremely profitable.

"He’s a plumber."

That explains it.
