    Is Nina retarded? Trump is the candidate for the Billionaire Class. GOP is corrupt to its core. Billionaires fear the DNC.

      There are billionaires in the DNC, and billionaires who back them. Maybe not as many, but still enough that taxing the rich has never gained any traction even under democratic governments. Billionaires fear nothing in DC, they have proven over and over again they can buy pretty much whoever they need to.

        There are no sitting billionaire DNC lawmakers. It is literal party platform, in writing, to tax the rich. Biden increased audits on the rich, made a minimum effective taxrate for the rich, and It was Kamala Harris’ campaign promise to make an unrealized gains tax on amounts over a million dollars, which are assets used by billionaires as loan collateral to avoid taxes for their entire life.

        If you were a billionaire, you would be 2.5x more likely to back the GOP than the DNC, and you would likely have a spot reserved in the front or on stage during a GOP inauguration.
