The masses don't understand that's not them. They're not included in that. What the Democrats have done includes everybody. What the Republicans have done, really the 1 percenters. But Trump is almost like that on steroids. Right? Because Trump has said to the billionaire, at least in the oil industry, help me out, give me money and I'll help you specifically. It's almost like that dynamic you just described, plus some corruption on top. And he has more support among sort of people that aspire to be wealthy than all the Republicans that came before him. (16:20–16:32)
