Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

There are physicians out there who call this the physiology of poverty. Physiology of poverty. Your body reacts, your mind. The stress of just trying to survive every single day breaks the mind, breaks the body. And that is why people are living shorter lives who are working class than the wealthy. And this is an issue that we have got to deal with.

Let me comment two ways. Number one, of course, what you're seeing precisely is that attitude now being reflected in what Musk is doing to the federal government. Oh, you work for the federal government for 20 years? You're gone. We don't need you anymore. You have a poor performance. Who determined that? Well, I did. I never met you. I never saw you. I never talked to you. You're gone.

So that is precisely what they're doing. And I want to say this. I know there are people out there who say, well, you know, it's really unfortunate what's happening to these federal employees. People like Musk are great believers in technology, artificial tech, artificial intelligence and robotics.

And when that revolution sweeps across the private sector and threatens the jobs of tens of millions of workers, you know what the Musks of the world are going to say? You're out of here. Have a nice day. Goodbye. They could care less about what happens to working people. But to answer your question more deeply, why did people vote for Trump? Which is a good question.

Why do many working class people? Vote for Trump. The answer has, I think, less to do, to be honest with you, with Trump and Musk than it does with the Democratic Party.

And in my view, you have a Democratic Party, which over the years has been very strong and effective, I think, in fighting for women's rights, terribly important, fighting for gay rights, fighting for civil rights, all of which is important. But in terms of standing up and taking on powerful special interests and fighting for the working class, Democrats were not there.

And I hope you know, and I think many of your listeners may know, that unbelievably, it's not just that we have today massive income and wealth inequality, where three people on top own more wealth than the bottom half of American society. The reality, the economic reality of today is that over the last 50 years, five zero years,
