      Yeah, tell me how well applying this to anyone voting for Trump goes in a couple of years. If you have a moral high ground but didn’t achieve anything then is it something you’re interested in?

          For starters, by not assuming every single one of them blames all their problems on people purely based on their birth characteristics. Treat them with no prejudice. You’re likely prejudiced against lower class people and not even realise it. Listen to what they have to say and see what led them to distrust public institutions, what are their troubles and priorities.

            I get their distrust. I dont get why they would put their trust in a person that is very much the embodiment of the reason for the distrust.

            Why do you say i have prejudice against lower class? Most the ones i know thag support him are higher class than me.

              Statistically this is not a representative group.

                  Have you considered being out of touch then?

                    Probably. I cant fathom why anyone rational sees trump being the solution to their problems even if he was the solution, it would be the demise of millions of americans.
