Best Answer

The short answer is: they don't.

White trash doesn't refer to the entirety of the Caucasian race, it refers to the stereotype of white people who live in poverty, undereducated, often racist, prone to crime, living in dilapidated housing or trailer parks, and users of drugs such as crystal methamphetamine. No more truth should be assumed in this stereotype than in any other stereotype.
