I hate Drumpf as much as any sane person, but this is not a point in his disfavor.

The Republicans aren't the working class party and that won't change with this election.  Whites love to overlook that many members of the working class are actually minorities.  Go figure!

Hate to break it to you dude, but the working class vote has been voting Republican for quite awhile now.

No it hasn't. No matter how you define "working class" that's just not empirically true.

I should've been more clear in what I was referring to and said the white working class, so my bad on that front. And no, Obama only got 36% from that group in 2012 and 40% in 2008.

Definitions become important here, but, at the very least, lower-income Whites are still more Democratic than higher-income ones. This might change in 2016.

If you're a Fortune 100 CEO, you're a very smart, hard-working, highly successful person. That, of course, doesn't mean that millions of other people aren't also all of those qualities, but if I were running for president, I would want the support of all 100 of them. You (should) always want the smart, successful people on your side.

There is so much wrong with this post.
