DAVOS IS WHERE BILLIONAIRES TELL MILLIONAIRES HOW THE MIDDLE CLASS FEELS

That's a quote from Jamie Dimon, quoted by Niall Ferguson in his opinion piece Trump exemplifies the Ugly American. Davos will accept him anyway in The Washington Post.

Ferguson argues that Davos will accept Bomber Trump because he is essentially one of them: a business man with a global company who just made them all richer because of his tax cuts (which most of them will use to pay shareholders rather than for employment).

Ferguson writes that when Nelson Mandela attended Davos in 1992 he was convinced during a private meeting to drop one major plan of the ANC, the nationalisation of South Africa's key industries, and asks:
The really interesting question is whether or not Trump and his entourage will be taking such meetings — and with whom.
