      WASHINGTON ― The Trump White House will stand with corporations over workers in a looming Supreme Court battle involving arbitration agreements, according to a copy of an amicus brief obtained by HuffPost on Friday.

      Arbitration agreements prevent workers from pursuing class-action lawsuits for back wages and other damages from their employers. Before former President Barack Obama left office, his administration had argued that such agreements run afoul of collective bargaining law. But in an unusual move, the Trump administration is undercutting that argument and backing corporations.

        The worker will always be at the bottom of Trumps priority list.  Anyone who thinks he became President to help the middle class is in for a very big surprise.

          None of the Democrats care about the middle class either.    That leaves social policies.
