Tax cuts for the ultra rich (who really don't need more money to get about, as they only have gotten more rich while middle class gets marginalized [1] [2]) don't help the working class. Worker's rights, unionization, higher minimum wage, legalization to help hard working in gig economy -- these directly help a working class in a divide and conquer society as it is.
Dividing was his creed. Trump had a lot of hot air about helping Joe Sixpack, ie. rhetoric and short-term gains. On the long-term, climate change affects us all. Including the working class. We've seen some appetizers in the form of drought and massive fires. Reaction? Denial, cause he can't figure a way to profit from it.
There's ways to profit from climate change. Its a lack of willpower and lack of inventive thinking to not opt for it, and unfortunately the world can't afford to ignore it any longer.
