I kind of agree because a lot of people call those who voted for Trump, alt right automatically

The working class voted for the Democratic candidate by a large margin as they always do.

A lot of people consider the term working class to be almost redneck like and under educated
Definition: 1.
the social group consisting of people who are employed for wages, especially in manual or industrial work.
I see that last part as people who didn't pursue higher education

Yes, and those people vote Democratically and always have, because the working class in this country is disproportionately racial and ethnic minorities. If by working class you mean "white people without college degrees" then you've redefined it to not actually include people who earn below the median income, and to include people who earn a lot of money but didn't go to college (think electricians, plumbers, car dealership owners, etc.)

I believe that plumbers, construction workers, and electricians are and always have been part of the working class
What amount of income is the limit of this distinction? I've never seen this used before

There isn't a hard limit because these terms aren't super well defined. I like $50k because usually that's one of the breakpoints in data collection, and the median income is about $60k so you're looking at generally the people who earn the least money and have the least education. I think it's weird to call people who run their own businesses and own houses with 2 car garages "working class", though in some sense I guess that's technically true.
