Both the Democratic and Republican establishments must certainly share some of the blame for the current plight of many working class people in this country.  I find it bizarre, however, that so many people seem to think that Donald Trump, a man who has singularly devoted his life to enriching himself, is suddenly going to become the champion of the working class.  He may well "shake things up" in some way, but it's hard for me to believe that any shake up he initiates is going to provide much benefit to ordinary working people.
