        He bought into the MSM/liberal lie "white privilege". Fact: education + hard work affords anyone opportunities.

        Old white people remember the 50s/60s, when you had to have a plan to fail. This was a RARE time in history.

        Today's economic climate resembles most eras in history. Higher education creates opportunity but it's hard/expensive.

        And so more white working-class folks are less successful than their parents and they're looking for someone to blame.

        You keep missing the point. This is why HRC lost. This is why you are selling off 8+ floors of your building. LEARN

        income inequality has been going on for decades. Raise minimum wage and reduce executive pay.

        White privilege does not mean life is easy for you, it means that you don't have it like the rest of us.
