Trump

One interesting implication of my previous post, of course, is that Donald Trump is posing as the tribune of the (white) people who are "left behind" in our economy, when in fact he has spent his life profiting from the ignorance and poor self-control that I posit are the most salient dividing line between the "two tracks" of our economy.  From casinos to Trump University, his instinct has always been to rip these people off.  Of course his candidacy is no different.
