The complaint by the Trump supporters is that the Establishment has run politics for too long. They blame the wrong people, the politicians. Ultimate blame lays with them the voters, then the funders of the politicians who need to spend huge sums to put on extravagant entertainment shows where little is said of any worth.

This allows big business to get assholes elected. Who will do as they're told.

The irony is there's now a bigger asshole from big business and still in it. Trying to get elected and telling the little people he's going to make himself poorer to make them richer. And some have swallowed that hook line and sinker.

Building a wall that keeps out cheap labour will force up wages, stopping imports from the third world will push up job creation and wages.

That will it the profits of billionaires. Especially Hotel Magnates. Look the lowest wages professions. At the jobs migrants do. Building a wall is about keeping migrants out, if they make enough illegals in legally to maintain the low wage levels. Nothing will change, if legal migrants overstay, nothing will change, if the legal migrants have children, nothing will change. Because the reason for low wages is too many people + too few jobs = Low wages.

The solution to low pay is, tax imported goods, reduce the population and spend a lot more on education. Which is something the top % isn't going to do.
