Class warfare breaks out in the US, the lower vs upper classes engage in battle. Keeping in mind class is correlated but not the exact same thing as wealth (e.g., Trump is low class, teachers are upper class), and regardless of the class you personally prefer, you'd guess:
  • upper class wins
    43.1%
  • lower class wins
    56.9%

This is a meaningless hypothetical, because your definition of classes is so ambiguous. If it's "Biden supporters vs Trump supporters", probably Biden supporters.

Is this what you think the classes are? Or is this a matter of turning class concepts on their heads to see if people conform to title versus definition?

Recent historical examples of low class warriors winning: Afghanistan Iraq Vietnam Cambodia Cuban Revolution Russian Revolution French Revolution South American Revolutions Eat The Rich is a very real threat. You can buy an army, but you can't buy loyalty.

I think you have to twist the definition of “class” almost to the point of meaninglessness to say that teachers are upper class while Trump is lower class.
