This chapter delves into the complexities of the Republican Party's supposed support for the working class, questioning the sincerity of their gestures and highlighting their focus on benefiting corporate interests. The discussion also covers the challenges faced by labor movements in representing a diverse group of workers, including the difficulties in organizing and advocating for the working class in different sectors and regions.
