One of my interview subjects for #DemocratToDeplorable was a non-college Greek immigrant who entered legally and obtained citizenship the right way. He has built a successful import business and employs countless Americans. He had a lot to say about Trump and immigration:
From my book: "To Dimitri, protecting the borders and ending illegal immigration was a celebration of his history, an acknowledgement that doing something the right way still had merit, that hard work, patience, and a little luck still formed the core of an American identity....
..To steal your place in our society was to poke Uncle Sam in the eye with a stick as you ran past him to grab your prizes. When Democrats and the left defend those who openly flaunt our laws, when they conspire to protect illegal aliens through sanctuary cities, when they...
..devalue the time, toil, and devotion it takes to become a citizen the right way, they tell Dimitri and people like him: we just don't care about you."

Dimitri never considered himself to be white until his family brought him to America in 1968. "I'm Greek -not white. I never considered myself to be white until I came to America."
Is this non-college entrepreneur with an international business part of the "white working class?"
