Privilege is a Saturn construct
Manage episode 311980232 series 3208524
While Trump's fixers cry "executive privilege", where does this sense of entitlement come from? It's bred in our national DNA with origins that consisted of a few wealthy aristocratic landlords and the many landless "undesirables", who were sent to America in order to solve Europe's "human waste" problem. A sordid history that created class divides without ever extinguishing the original problems of poverty and inequality. The irony is that now we have a White Trash President who has turned privilege on its head.
