Oh no he not he is an elitist and believes the poor are vermin.
Others have noticed this obvious hypocrisy.
An excerpt of new York Daily news.k
President Trump does not want poor people in his cabinet. Or running for office. Or playing golf. But he does want their votes. In fact, he expects poor people to vote for him because they are poor.
This is the worldview we know from Trump's public statements about America's struggling class — the same group that helped propel his populist campaign into an unprecedented presidential victory.
In the mans words.
Let golf be elitist ... Let people work hard and aspire to someday be able to play golf. To afford to play it. They're trying to teach golf to people who will never be able to really play it. They're trying too hard. Because of the expense of playing, and the land needed, golf is never going to be basketball, where all you need is a court." (Fortune magazine interview, July 1, 2015)
"My entire life, I've watched politicians bragging about how poor they are, how they came from nothing, how poor their parents and grandparents were. And I said to myself, if they can stay so poor for so many generations, maybe this isn't the kind of person we want to be electing to higher office. How smart can they be? They're morons. There's a perception that voters like poverty. I don't like poverty. Usually, there's a reason for poverty. Do you want someone who gets to be president and that's literally the highest paying job he's ever had?" (New York Times interview, Nov. 28, 1999)
