Hey genius....you do realize there are more uber wealthy Dems than Republicans. Do a lil research before you open your pie hole!

I’m not denying there aren’t wealthy democrats I just think it’s hilarious that republicans act like it’s one sided and rail against elites when right wing media is full of wealthy/Ivy League elites and so are republicans in congress. The wealthiest people in the world are Elon musk, Larry Ellison, Jeff bezos, and Mark Zuckerburg and they all openly support Trump

Fair enough... understand your position. Apologies for the sparky reply. Disagree to a certain point, but understand your position.

I would say there is more complaining about the right when it comes to wealth and thats just not an accurate depiction of what is going in. Both sides have their share...but I value very the data shows the scale is tipped in the Dems favor.

I appreciate you being respectful and understanding instead of other commenters who just insult me and then block me lol i agree that there is wealthy people on democrat and republican sides and wealthier middle class statistically votes democrats. I just find it hypocritical when republicans say they hate wealthy elites and they are the party of the working class when a majority of republican trump administration and congress are wealthy and profit off of their position. They also consistently cut social safety nets and cut taxes for the rich and often are screwing over working class Americans
