    I didn't finish high school. Or, in my case, private school.  I don't believe that "classes" as such exist in this country, just different groups of people. My father worked hard and we were certainly well off growing up. Country club, horsy set.  On my own I started taking life seriously late but have been fortunate enough to get to the point I now make a very good salary.  My husband attended college, grad school and owns his own company. We are very well off but of course we are working people.  We have no love for President Trump as a personality and we stick with him because of his ideals and policies which we generally agree with.  Though not entirely.   If the Democratic party had stayed reasonable and practical instead of going into outer space and embracing radicalism I would have stayed with them.

    I am white, a high school graduate and working-class, but I am not a Trump constituent.

    Simple explanation---you are much smarter than the average high school graduate.

    Thank you.  But, I would add that back when I went to school, we actually learned things.

  • Add to that list the following: High school educated blacks, hispanics, women, independents and a few other groups that the president supposedly doesn't have any backing from

    Somebody had to vote for him or he wouldn't be president. I guess some people think they're too good for working folks. Maybe those who ask questions like this never had to work for a living. Lucky for them.
