No, not really. From the NYT:
Obama Accuses Trump of Exploiting Working-Class Fears By JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVISA less tendentious way to phrase that headline would be Obama Says Trump Is Defending Working-Class Interests, which is still legal going into 2016, although I’m sure respectable opinion is coming around to concluding that Steps Must Be Taken. When we take that racist populist Andrew Jackson off the $20 bill, that would be a good point to take away his signal reform, universal white male suffrage and go back to property requirements for white men to vote.
DEC. 21, 2015 1737 COMMENTSThe text string “immigra” does not appear in the NYT article.President Obama said in a radio interview airing on Monday that Donald J. Trump, a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination, is exploiting the resentment and anxieties of working-class men to boost his campaign. Mr. Obama also argued that some of the scorn directed at him personally stems from the fact that he is the first African-American to hold the White House.
Demographic changes and economic stresses, including “flat-lining” wages and incomes, have meant that “particularly blue-collar men have had a lot of trouble in this new economy, where they are no longer getting the same bargain that they got when they were going to a factory and able to support their families on a single paycheck,” Mr. Obama said in the interview with National Public Radio.
“You combine those things, and it means that there is going to be potential anger, frustration, fear — some of it justified, but just misdirected,” the president added. “I think somebody like Mr. Trump is taking advantage of that. That’s what he’s exploiting during the course of his campaign.”
