When did so-called “conservatives” start resenting successful people?

Corruption is not success.

When that “success” is bulls*** that comes from graft and abuse of hardworking people.

She got quite the raise right after hubby was elected to the Senate. Coincidental?

There are successful people, then there are globalist control freaks as listed in the article.

Down with the globalists!

I think they resent hypocrites. Many successful people are hypocrites - not all of them, but many.

You either do something people like and become successful, or you game the system to become/stay successful. In a lot of cases formerly decent successful people that were not unlikable, become weasels only interested in their wealth and preservation of it at all costs.

My point it, people will bring up things like the Cruz’s ties to GS, Heidi making a ton of money there, which by extension lends credence to their concerns (in their minds anyway). It may be a gross way to make a point, but it hits home pretty quickly.
