Why do people say that Trump's election was a working class revolt when it was mostly rich people who voted for him?

Tradesman now make 60k (low end, very low end if moderate CoL state) to 400k now so it's not that shocking. Have friends in a low CoL state taking home 200k+ as just techs. Looks here like he won the blue collar vote since the majority is 50k-200k aka normal blue collar wages.

Because in the public mind "poor" and "stupid" and "a failure" and "uneducated" go together, and they can't break the conditioning. They must label Trump supporters this way to feed their blood cult.

50k is rich?

areas like MI and OH had higher #s for people earning 30K-100K.

To add to that, rich really is 10mil plus a year. My dad made roughly a mil a year and was basically upper middle.

hillary's highest voting blocs were blacks and hispanics that make less than 50k a year. that have college degrees and maybe a woman.

He got more of the working poor than previous Republicans

typically blue rust belt counties switched

obviously with the horde of blacks and hispanics voting for Clinton it's still going to look like she has "the people"

Why are you still using polls when they failed to predict the election?

Are you going to use Family Feud answers next?

>Uneducated whites won the vote for Trump
>Yet they are the rich ones
>So what the heck kind of jobs are the educated ones getting?

>mostly rich people

You don;'t know how populations work. But I guess its cause Brazil gives out votes based on acreage.

Because whites with college degrees voted for him en masse. The percentages are skewed by niggers.

>majority of the rich voted for Hillary
>majority of the middle and lower middle class voted trump
Gay Mexicans are as bad as leaves.

I got mates in USA who are "uneducated" and earn 100k to 200k in burgers as sparkies and construction management.

What's with the elitist attitude that having a jewni degree makes you better than anyone? I'm guessing some low end workers even end up better off especially if they are frugal and get into property early in life.

Every year you don't own a property is lost money, let alone getting into debt for a gamble at a career that might be full in 4 years. I was so worried about this I did double classes for my engineering cert and got it in 2 years, but I had no life during that time but shit is good now.

$50k is rich? Wat? You know when you start getting much higher than that you start getting taxed into oblivion.

Glad you're good at math, maybe that's why left has such a bad time with the economy?

>under 30,000
pure "GIB-ME-DATZ" group

>30k-49,999
Pure "I'M THE REEEEEEL MIDDLE CLASS"

>50-99k
>rich

that is middle class in the USA you dumb monkey.

Split it by race and we'll talk.

Mexicans and Blacks voting is screwing up the ratios.

This is just the "le uneducated wyte workin clazz" meme. Trump won the majority of the White college-educated vote.

kys

uhh yeah....take me 2.5 years to make that.

>I got mates in USA who are "uneducated" and earn 100k to 200k in burgers as sparkies and construction management.
A lot of people think cashed up bogans is a straya exclusive. The reality is trades and blue collar work as a whole falls firmly in the 50-200k bracket, more so than white collar which now days seems to cap in the high 40k. I know mid level plumbers in New York pulling six figs. I've pulled that much as a tradesman (first year non the less) where the CoL is about 30% of New Yorks.

yeah, you pretty stupid arent you?

Stop working part time then.

Look at the change from 2012. Sure 'rich people' gave him the vote by numbers, but a lot more poor people voted republican this year as opposed to 2012 and a lot more rich people voted democrat as opposed to 2012.
It's like how Clinton got the black vote, but more black people voted for Trump than Romney, and less black people voted for Hillary than Obama.

high quality ad hominem

Full time at my states minimum with a small commision bonus each month if I upsell enough,.

i figured it was all you could understand, being that stupid.

Because they came out for him in PA, WI, MI, and OH.

>lower/middle class is rich because I am poor
Fuck off retard.

>Hourly plus commission
Even at a shitty 12/hr + commission I was clearing at least a k a week. What do you do and why do you do it?

So a guy who gets both the EC AND the popular vote has only had rich people vote for him? Last time I checked, 90% of those who voted weren't rich.

So... KYS faggot.

Yep and imagine the power if you raise your whole family as trades only.

typical Hillary supprter. Fuck you.

The same reason niggers called it a 'white lash' despite Trump getting less of the vote than McCain in 2008.

Edit: Less of the White vote.

And it's to push a narrative.

The keyword is WORKING class revolt.

Contrary to liberal media, the poor don't work all that much. Welfare provides an incentive to not work and most of their time is going through the motions of the occasional job search followed by keeping any employment part-time to continue qualifying for benefits.

that stat is fake

never heard of minimum wage being 12/hour. I make 9.15, been here for 5 years. Car rental place.

I intend to teach my kid electrician skills, plumbing, and hvac aka the big 3. Sparkies are mad over paid for their work but they get capped heavily. Still, it's an easy life if you want to make 6 figs and not do much or be that intelligent. Plumbers have a shit life and have pay all over the place (certain specialists make bank though and demand will increase), HVAC will always be a profitable albeit shitty job that pays retarded amounts for skilled techs even though it only takes 3 years to master.

Never said I made minimum but if you have commissions to boost that should be huge.

>Car rental place.
Are you 17? Fucking get the fuck out of there. I have mechanic clients working full commission pulling 2k steady and mechanics make shit.

im 36 actually. got somewhat of a disability, so im lucky to have this job at all I guess.

Maybe it was all those dead people that vote democrat making under 30,000

because hillary lead with college graduates

but yeah, it was a taxpayer revolt really

If that's true and you don't take any welfare then I feel bad for you and wish you the best of luck, if you do take any welfare though I hope you eat a dick.

>making 24,000/year (I'm 19 and on my own saving to pay for trade school courses)
>implying I have ever taken gibs
Do I look like a nigger? Most whites in this bracket would die of shame if they went on any sort of government assistance and would be ridiculed.

You're missing something here, my Brazilian friend.

If you make under 49k a year you're not "Working class" you're on welfare.

High school diploma + trade school = $100 -$200K year
College degree = less than $45K year

now show a blue state

fuck no i aint no nigger. i lost my right arm from the elbow down in a fight when i was in prison.
nobody wants to hire me because of my arm.

Nope.

>50k-200k
>rich
What is middle class???

There was a big surge in poorfags for trump. The democrats are basically a caste system of welfare gibmedats and snobby, rich elites. The republicans are the middle class and some rich people (like CEOs).

what middle class?

>and snobby, rich elites

The market says otherwise.

WAIT WHAT
Story time or bullshit.

coconut do they teach stats in the jungle
rich ppl are a tiny fraction of the voting bloc

That infographic says you are the hillary supporter

The one that's diminishing ever so quickly.

Look up who won poor whites. Minorities are just poor and overwhelmingly vote dem so they skew the numbers but the working class, middle class and upper class of whites of all religions (Catholics, Protestants, pagans, etc) Trump is the white people's vote

Maybe because of the swing. Obama got 60% of the vote of people under 50k and Romney/McCain got about 30%

They trim the wrong parts. trim the business area damnit and leave some fluff up top.

maybe some other time user i gotta close down the store and lock up.

I'm not sure what you mean. There are some pretty vocal billionaires like Buffet and Zuckerberg in the democrat camp.

Senpai's right.

The only people who were 'smart' enough to vote for Hillary, were the people who aren't even 'smart' enough to be on wellfare.

In any case, this picture just shows that Hillary supporters are the poor and uneducated.

lol clinton didnt take one county in oklahoma.

who pa here?

I like pubes throughout, always have and always will. A landing strip or Brazilian is okay but I like just a bit of hair.

>I like to lie
OK

Most college educated young men and women are bar maids/wait staff.

>Alaska, Oklahoma, and Meth Virginia full red
Nice

OP, why do you think I should believe polls produced by the media after this election?

COUNTRY ROADSSSSS
TAKE ME HOMEEEEEE
TO A PLACEEEEEE
I BELONGGGGGGGGG

Best part is white collar guys are usually (except in say law or finance) back office workers whereas blue collar guys are front office and therefor earn more.

you should. this map is all you need to see.

That poll is probably right, pretty much no one in my family has a college education but we have all made shit loads of money for fucking generations. The best part is we aren't even nepotistic, we do our own things and make it.

Uni is a fucking scam except for healthcare and law.

college degree equals poor
got it

From my experience, yeah.

30-120k wage slaves, you ain't making shit unless you come from a family with connections.

Why do people think it has anything to do with a republican uprising or class revolt, when the numbers suggest it was simply a matter of democrat voters not showing up while the Republican voters voted for the party they always do? For them, the problem was Clinton. People were so uninspired by her that they either didn't vote or voted for a third party.

Let's not forget that student loans are universally available meanwhile unis simply hunt for easy money. It's a fucking joke.

wtf? Now I love asian sluts

You're an absolute drooling idiot. Most counties in the US aren't highly populated and 50% of the US population resides in just 30 counties.

because liberals have a fiction to maintain that they aren't supported by the utter scum of the earth/gimmedats welfare recipients

WHITE working class revolt

>120k
>wage slaves

In some places like NYC, SF, LA, and Boston 120k is a wage slave.

What trades make that kind of money?

>mostly rich people who voted for him?

50% of voters are rich white people.

>nigger w8t?

How do you think he got the Rust Belt?

Depends of where you live . In italy earning 4k/month is considered rich , cause the avg income is 1100 here .

Depending on the area and age it absolutely is.

Ever read any books on IB?

What's the average house size over there?

Sad thing is that if you're a doctor (and the same may apply to other over educated professionals) you're gonna have trouble doing much better. You want big bucks you gotta go out into the boonies where no one wants to work.
