You have 3 months to change that perception. Don't think it'll happen. Your link does not show how the illegal immigrants are affecting the middle class even tho the perception is the illegals are hurting the middle class. Hence why Trumps wall resonates.

Illegal immigrants are universally below the poverty line. How does that affect the middle class in any way? If they did affect the middle class, they would have money, and therefore be a legal immigrant.

The dirty reality is that if Walmart itself can't bring back our jobs, Trump's not going to do any better.

Fackin Wal-Mart hypocrites, they were one of the big retailers that forced many suppliers overseas in the first place by threatening to remove their products from the shelves if they didn’t lower their prices.
